Dan Erlewine & Bryan Galloup
In the early 70’s Dan Erlewine built custom guitars for iconic guitarists that molded the sound of American pop culture. These one of a kind instruments were made to the specifications of the performers that was unique in style and sound.
Decades later Bryan Galloup joined Dan in his shop as an apprentice and together they continued building and repairing guitars in the Erlewine tradition.
Now three decades later, Dan and Bryan have re-teamed to reproduce two of these iconic instruments, the Albert King “V” and the Jerry Garcia Stratishcaster. All tone woods are sonically tested through Bryan’s patented Instrument Making Software™ to ensure these instruments not only look the same, the player will experience the same feel, weight and response of the original instruments.”

Today in 1973, Jerry playing a Dan Erlewine Strat. If you are into music and guitars in Athens, Ohio you have heard his name. If you repair and build guitars around the country, I’m certain you have heard of him.

VERY TRUE! I've witnessed this magic first hand (plus felt/heard the difference), and can fully vouch for it. It also holds true for the nut, and especially neck pockets. Never use the micro-tilt adjustment, and stick to a wooden shim that makes full contact with neck pocket and heel. #guitartech #guitartips #luthiertips #danerlewine
Albert King. Nuff said. #albertking #flyingv #blues #bornunderabadsign #lucy #flyingv #gibson #danerlewine #joebonamassa #notkorina jimipagevaughan
Gifts from a good friend I met in Athens-OH. curlymaplewood Thomas Bennett. He gave me this beautiful Koa wood plate turned in his shop, where I went a lot of times while I was working with monsterfret Dan Erlewine for 3 yeas during the Winter and Spring seasons. Because of him I have built some particulars and special projects with Koa top on them. I learned so much from him and his fabulous shop. Many Thanks my friend! 🇺🇸🇧🇷🎸🌉🗜
Enquanto estive trabalhando com Dan Erlewine, conheci um cara fenomenal, Thomas Bennett, fui em@sua oficina varias vezes e sempre aprendi muito com ele. E ele me deu esse lindo prato de Koa feito em seu torno. Além de ter me oferecido umas Koa que fiz lindos projetos de guitarras. Muito Obrigado meu amigo. #koa #bow #woodturning #woodworking #woodworker #tonewood #friends #friendship #woods #handmade #handmadejewelry #gift #present #tool #tools #guitarshop #woodshop #danerlewine

Three decades later, Dan monsterfret and Bryan have re-teamed to reproduce Albert King’s iconic V, “Lucy”. To ensure these instruments not only look and feel the same, Dan used the last of his original Lucy wood to build one for joebonamassa and myself. Very happy to be a part of Dan and Alberts legacy.

This guitar is owned By ACTOR -STEVEN SEGAL- Steven is loaning this guitar to our Good Buddy -JOE BONAMASSA to use on the tour that Joe is doing .. Called "THE THREE KINGS TOUR!!

Had a great time at the #asiasymposium. Got to meet the great #danerlewine. Was pretty much #guitarrepair nerd weekend. Met a lot of good people and picked up some cool tricks. #stewmac #luthier #repairguitar #guitarnerd
Correction on Date of Nudie suit pictures.
Actually is Winterland Dec 10 - 12th run.
For Contrast, Alligator was played on the 10th and the Erlewine Strat was played on the 11th and 12th. December 10th was Alligator Version 4.0 with the new Alembic Brass Bridge, Sustainer Block and Tailpiece.
Nudie suits were also worn on the Feb 19 and March 19th 1973 shows.
1972 shows have a single mic for each singer. In 1973 the Dual Mics were being used already.

The 1970 built Dan Erlewine Strat custom ordered by Jerry and played in 1972. Dan is a Luthier that has a rather giant Luthier retail shop online called stewmac.com. You can check out his video about it over there as well as get a quality switch for an OBEL or whole strat kit! I think this Custom Erlewine may have been given to Hunter as he is seen playing it later on.

A quote from Dan about from The Les Paul Forum. "Yeah, I built Jerry a guitar around 1970ish? It was a black walnut bodied Strat with a maple neck. I was into "wood" so it had a rosewood pickguard and other "woody" thinks at the time. I have an 8mm movie of me delivering it to him in the mountains of St. Helena, CA where my wife's uncle owns a ranch. We visited when my oldest daughter was a baby. I charged $500 and Jerry gave me $900!
The guitar wasn't worth it! It was OK, but not compared to custom instruments that luthiers are building today. I ma(d)e the neck with maple laminations running at right angles to the fretboard. It made for a weird neck, I'll tell you because since it was a "maple neck" and had no fretboard the playing surface showed glue joints! I was always a little disatisfied with that. I thought it would have "killer" tone and strength because it was maple out of an ancient piano that I tore apart.
It had a stop-bar and tune-o-matic also (Jerry wanted that. . . it also had the num(b)ers 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 , 12, inlayed in large rosewood numerals at those respective frets. Just a crazy hippie-idea of mine.
It also had a brass nut - the very first brass nut that I had ever been asked to make.
I have a pic of Jerry with it if you want to see it.
thanks, Dan
PS: I ran into a young fellow at the GAL Convention in Tacoma perhaps 6 years ago, and his father ended up with that guitar, and then gave it to him. He was pleased to meet me, and I was pleased that he did NOT have the guitar in hand (with all my building and repair buddies around (500 of them)." #waldotronics #jerrygarciatonenerd

Me with my absolute hero/Yoda, none other than Dan Erlewine himself.
ANYONE who has ever even thought about making/repairing/spraying a guitar has this gentleman to thank.
An honour and my NAMM highlight was talking to you monsterfret and your lovely wife.
I’ll send you those saddles!

Cracked out the Erlewine Neck Jig by stewmac_guitar for the fret dress on this Tasman. Loving the accuracy of this thing, once you get the hang of setting it up! 😂

Birds eye view, fret dressing is so much better with the shop stand. ....
