Beater?! As a Dano lover, I believe masonite is a real tonewood. One of the guitars I wish I had NEVER parted with is my long-lost '59 DC in Commie Red. :x I still miss it. The tone was so unique; not a hint of jazz in that guitar. Somehow though it was perfect for fast runs, flatpicking, and was an overall perfect compliment to my Rics.

I have a Longhorn bass and Longhorn/Mando-guitar at the moment. Need another DC...

Oh, congratulations!

My best friend is Dano junkie, Mitch. He'd consider your statement near blasphemous. :D
