"The supreme example of DR craftsmanship and versility is our DR-C custom series.
Not just four, but five and six string models that add a whole new range of possibilities to your creative voice. With magnificent exotic burled hardwoods-highly figured tops of cedar and maple that create a strikingly luxurious appearance. And make the DR-C series as exciting to look at as they are to play.
Our custom basses feature the same sophisticated circuitry and features as other DR models, but their construction is neck-through-body, and all hardware is finished in rich gold plate.
When you see and play the DR basses, or any Heartfield instrument, you'll experience quality that is unsurpassed by even the most expensive one-of-a-kind handbuilt instruments.
But now that quality is attainable at a price no custom builder can approach."
The preceeding was an excerpt from a 1989 FMIC publication.
