Also look at the destroyer in the photo above(I have that picture-poster hung in my bar),the pickup is a cream colored mighty mite distortion(ceramic magnet)pickup,its not a dimarzio super distortion because it doesnt have the small holes on the pickup like the dimarzio super distortion has.

Dano necks are horrible IMO. the tone of an old Dano with lipsticks is golden, but the necks are unplayable IMO.

Re: "Seymour Duncan Special Van halen pickup 1979"

My father in law has one of the re-issues of those Dano lipstick guitars. I agree they sound GREAT, but the necks are so-so. I think a little fretwork would help them a lot.
