Hi Dan. What a gorgeous guitar that you bought here. And a beautiful playing that corresponds well with your new beauty. Thanks for sharing. 🙏 I hope you're giving it a lot of playing time to unlock the potential of both of you 🙂 Unfortunately you did'nt post new videos the last year. Hope you keep up your great guitar work. One nerdy question: Is the neck of your Pre-War Mod. D 1 11/16" nut to 2 3/16" saddle or 1 3/4" to 2 5/16"? I'm not sure from the video...and do you like the neck and playability? Cheers
@Danspielmanmusic6 ай бұрын
Hi! Thanks so much for the kind words. I am indeed playing this guitar nearly all the time! Hoping I can get back to making more videos with it soon. It is the modern taper so the 1&11/16ths:2&3/16ths. And I absolutely love it. Those guys know how to make a neck. Cheers!
@Lutze_en_voyage6 ай бұрын
@@Danspielmanmusic Thanks for your reply Dan. Sounds great that you're hopeful to make new videos. 👍 Regarding the neck I wonder if the more modern taper would work for me too. I have a Martin 00-15M with a 1 11/16th nut and that is suboptimal for my hands - but I think mainly due to its very thin MLO neck profile...so could probably feel different with a thicker 40's neckprofile?! And I have no experience with 2 5/16" bridge spacing for flatpicking and strumming. Unfortunately there's no dealer here in Germany to try out and play a Pre-War. Hope there'll be a dealer here in the near future too... Have a nice day.

@@Lutze_en_voyage drop them a line- I’m sure they would help answer any questions. I wouldn’t classify the neck on my guitar as ‘slim’ by any means. Mass in all the right places. I almost had them do a custom shaped neck based after another guitar that I have and really like the neck on- I am so glad I let them do their thing, as now I like their neck better than my other guitar! Good luck to you!
@Lutze_en_voyage6 ай бұрын
@@Danspielmanmusic Yeah..that's what I'm going to do to write them. I could imagine that the neck isn't too slim because they call it a 40's profile on their page...so it should have more mass to it than the recent Martin Modified Low Oval. Cool..thanks Dan.

Great guitar, Dan. It's a beauty, and thanks for posting this "unboxing" video. Looks like you went for the least "distressed" model, which I think is a great choice. I've got a small herd of Santa Cruz guitars (a 1995 12-fret dread, a 1997 OM, a 2001 D/PW and a 2010 mahogany D/PW) so I'm probably done buying guitars, but if I were going to get something new I think I'd be checking out these "Pre-War" guitars.

I want to ask, could you maybe do a video where you highlight the details on your new guitar?

I remember when Molly Tuttle first started playing her Pre-War D, she used D'Addario EXP (also a great coated and great sounding string but no longer made) and it sounded killer.

I think this is more of a situation in which they only are making a small amount of guitars each year (less than 200 a year if I’m not mistaken) keeping production low so they can maintain high quality. A lot of people want these guitars because they are really great instruments. You should try one! I’d wait longer than 26 months if I had to do it again, it was well worth both the cost and wait.
