performers Jim Kahr John Lee Hooker, Joe Cocker, Jimmy Rogers, Charlie Musslewhite, Junior Wells, Freddie King "DS mandolins offer remarkable hand craftsmanship, feel, and tonality... unmatched by competitors. My only other gem piece is a handmade mandolin constructed by a renown violin builder. Problem remained with the complex electric amplification issues, which DS mandolins also solved impressively" www.jimkahr.com Max Baca Texas Tornados, Flaco Jimenez, Rolling Stones, Los Lobos, Joe Ealy, The Mavericks, Dwight Yoakam "The best I ever put my hands on.

Daniel Schär knows that. It still doesn't keep him from buidling mighty fine instruments for DS guitars. Also, the term "revolutionary" is not out of context with his electric mandolin. And Mr. Schär is the man who introduced us all to the word "banjolin".
