Gallagher Guitars Endorsement Update...

03/17/2009



Danny's very own "Danny Reid Carter Signature Series" model is being
built right now by Gallagher Guitars in Wartrace, TN. The delivery date
for the two being built for him is sometime around April/May. Already
three of these guitars are on a waiting list to be built for other
customers with several other orders pending. The guitar will be in
Gallagher's catalogue this summer '09. The basic design is from the
G-50 Doc Watson Model with Danny's own specs and unique designs added.
It's going to be a real classic beauty!



A promotional video was shot at the Bros studio at the their home
the TreeHouse on Monday night 03/16/09. Stephen Gallagher has recently
re-taken possession of Doc Watsons first Gallagher Guitar which he
dubbed 'Ol Hoss'. The guitar became almost as famous as Doc himself
over the years being played in all his concerts and historic Doc
recordings including the "Will the Circle Be Unbroken" album produced
by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. Stephen Gallagher brought the guitar for
Danny and Tim to play as they were being video taped. Danny, holding
back real tears, held the guitar in his hands and proclaimed "I used to
watch Doc play this very guitar when I was a youngster into early
adulthood. I would be in total awe of Doc and the incredible sound of
this guitar which I never forgot....after we did some gigs with and got
to know him a little I always asked him how 'Ol Hoss' was doing".



The famous guitar has spent the last 32 years in the Country Music
Hall of Fame and a tenure for a while on display at the Smithsonian.
Danny played the guitar almost continuously Monday afternoon until late
in the evening and kept repeating "I just can't believe it...'Ol Hoss
in my very own home for me to play"!



Pics and videos will be posted soon of the magical night....



***Anyone interested in purchasing one of the totally custom made
and totally hand crafted instruments can write to Danny personally at:
spacemanmusic2000@yahoo.com or call (615)-851-6555 or by calling
Gallagher Guitars in Wartrace, TN. These guitars are custom made to
order and takes approximately 3-4 months to build. Get yourself a slice
of what will certainly be a beautiful and incredibly sounding piece of
music history. Will have pics and videos up soon.



***Celebrity Sightings: Bros pal Vince Gill showed up at the Bros
home, the TreeHouse, last Saturday night for some singin' and pickin'
and storytelling and generally cutting up!



Peace
