Question Hey I have been a huge fan of Sublime and Brad for a very long time and I have wanted to build an exact replica of Brad's custom Dan Macdonald Brown guitar for quite a while. I was wondering if you could tell me basically everything about the Brown guitar and what it is made of. Thank you and I hope to hear from you soon.
Answer The dan macdonald custom(his tech/friend) was based off of a vox 1960's hurrican model as well as a G&L 100.It was constructed out of hondouran mahogonay,had gotho tuners,a floyd rose locking trem,a semouyr duncan jeff beck in the bridge(JB)/single coil,then another humbucker,,this one out of an old dean guitar he had lying around.He stained the guitar in a soap bath to give it a natural looking finish.I'm not sure of the type of gum based solution he used..but i know it was used.
Well Sam i hope this helps..,if you have anymore questions feel free to drop me a line.Take care and thanks for taking the time to write in.Good luck with you project..drop me a picture when you get done so i can see how it turned out.,.,.,andy=}
