"My JD cranks out five of the blazingest tones associated with the three most popular solid body guitars ever. Decades of tone in one guitar! Of all the special guitar projects I've ever been involved with in my quest for the perfect guitar, the JD beats them all at any price, it's the best, and the most affordable - I couldn't be happier."Decades of tone in one guitar!Jerry Donahue, doyen of the string benders, and founder member with Will Ray and John Jorgensen of the legendary Hellecasters, is a player whose outstanding talents have seen him feature with artists as diverse as Fairport Convention, Fotheringay, Joan Armatrading, Gerry Rafferty, Robert Plant, Elton John, The Proclaimers, Johnny Hallyday, George Harrison, Cliff Richard, Chris Rea, Warren Zevon, Bonnie Raitt, Hank Marvin, Roy Orbison, Nanci Griffith, The Beach Boys and The Yardbirds. Jerry knows a thing or two about tone, and when the opportunity to cooperate with Fret-King and Trev Wilkinson to create a guitar he could be 100% happy with arose, the gauntlet was thrown down. With its single coil pickups custom wound to Jerry's exact recipe, and five way switch wired and tuned to his specification, the JD meets his vision of a single guitar which really can sound like all of the most instantly recognisable solid-body sounds of the last 50 years. Country twang, to rich, dark midnite jazz chords, to that elusive `in-between quack-tone' in just the flick of a switch, and more, it's all there in spades. Colour Original Classic Burst
