They're licensing everything nowadays, regardless of its connection with the product carrying the license. Nostalgia seems to be enough.

I dunno...I've been thinking about scoring a cheap guitar, something with lipstick pickups that I could use for slide playing.

Yeah, a Dano, exactly. I haven't visited too many pawn shops, yet. And I wasn't sure they would qualify as cheap anymore. There was a time, I think not too long ago, when nobody wanted 'em. I'm not sure whether or not that time has passed.

Dano=old ones yes.
Made in Asia = No.

I'll find something in a pawn shop, I think. It may not be a Dano, but that's all right. All I want is a cheap, solid body guitar with very high action, and 2 single coil pickups.

Pshaw. I think there's room for at least one more pickup in there. One louder...
