Skip_dup1 Posted August 27, 2002 Share Posted August 27, 2002 There`s a shop I go by once a week or so that has a gorgeous looking D`Aquisto-I assumed it was U.S. made but I`m not sure. I`ll check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted August 27, 2002 Share Posted August 27, 2002 The new D'Angelicos are being made by Vestax in Japan. I think Jim Triggs was making them for a while in the U.S., but not any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Binky_dup1 Posted August 28, 2002 Share Posted August 28, 2002 D'Aquistos are made by Fender Fender - 0102080 The D'Aquisto Ultra features a solid maple body with hand carved spruce top, highly figured maple neck, ebony fingerboard, multiple binding, gold hardware and deluxe hardshell case. The Custom Shop is proud to be able to offer a full line of exquisitely hand- crafted Fender DAquisto guitars. While not based on any of the more recognizable Fender body shapes, the DAquisto add a very distinct flavor to the already out-of-this-world creations that come from the Custom Shop. Master Builder Stephen Stern was fortunate to have studied with the late, great Jimmy DAquisto, and today carries on his tradition of building one of the finest arch-top hollowbody jazz guitars in the world. http://images.misupply.com/products/original/Fender/f0102070_D%27AquistroUltra.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
