Dan Erlewine Limited Editions

…a new era of innovative guitar builds…

THE "STRATIONAL"

An all aluminum welded body with matching aluminum pickguard. These are from Fender’s 1993 run of 109 aluminum Strats made for Harley Davidson Motorcycles 90th Anniversary. A good friend of mine did the engraving on them and was left with a few un-touched bodies that he stored for years. A banjo-maker and engraver, he gave them to me as a gift in 2018. I am making necks for them, and installing custom-designed Lollar pickups to enhance the raw, blues tone and timbre of a vintage National steel guitar.

THE "COUNTRY BOY"

Knotty-pine, tele-style with tortoise and herring-bone top binding, tortoise back binding, and a branded top ala a ’55[ Gretsch Roundup that I once loved. Plus, it has the “Glaser Bender” made by Joe Glaser (who kindly counted the body for the installation on his special fixtures). It has unique, solid-brass, lathe-turned, thru-body ferrules for super “coupling”.
