I don't have the guitar with me so this is the only photo so far. ( I sent it up with Ferenc in the Surf Coaster Van).
I still am at a loss what to say about getting this. Of course I'm extremely honored and grateful for the recognition, though I'm at a bit of a loss as to what I've done to deserve it (all false modesty aside).
My sincere appreciation for all involved in giving this to me, especially Paul aka Coltsurf, who's generosity seemingly knows no bounds. I'm sure you all had lots of fun juggling this surprise with the one I was setting up for Jeff
We are truly blessed to be part of the most generous, inclusive, supportive musical community that I could ever think of. It's quite the inspiration.

Congratulations on your very well-deserved recognition, Danny. Your inventive music gives us great joy. But more important, your conscience guides your words and actions. Your consistent generosity as an artist and person gently illuminates the way for us, so you bring out the best in others. From the first, you've always advised and encouraged me, even from across the country. I'm very glad you received this award.

I was wondering about those new FB photos of you cradling a '65 AVRI! That is awesome and well-deserved!

Huge congratulations to Danny! I was very fortunate to have been able to spend a lot of time with Danny from Wednesday night until yesterday morning, since he, Dane, Brian and I traveled together in one car, and all stayed at Don's (and of course, since we did the Atlantics tribute together). I can honestly say that Danny is a king among men, and I feel incredibly lucky and privileged to call him not only a friend but a good friend. Danny is one of the funniest and sharpest and kindest and most compassionate as well as talented guys I've ever known! This award is truly dead-on - so well done, Paul and Jeff! I am absolutely thrilled by it! (What a gorgeous guitar, too, a true stunner!! Your generosity as well as good taste are off the charts, Paul!)

While I have Danny's new guitar, I thought I'd trick it out for him-- jumbo frets, scalloped fretboard, rout the body for 3 humbuckers, a new paint job, and topped off with Ernie ball .008s! How does everyone in the gear forum feel about active electronics? I'll bet if I routed the upper bout I could squeeze in a Boss FRV! RAD!!!

Ummm... why go through that trouble if you aren't going to carve a handle into the body?

It won't need a handle after I chop the headstock off and put on a Steinberger tuning system!
