Dion No. 4
Hey all!
I am currently selling off my remaining guitars (Lowden O22 and Avalon A1-20) to make room for my first commission...a Dion No. 4. I couldn’t be more excited! Dion is a young but experienced builder who has developed quite a few unique structural elements that separate his guitars from the herd. Check out more about that here: dionguitars.ca After a few months of back and forths we settled on cedar/mahogany...a familiar pairing to me and I can’t wait to hear Dion’s influence on that wood pairing. Here are some early shots. IMG_2139.jpgIMG_2140.jpgIMG_2141.jpgIMG_2142.jpgIMG_2144.jpgIMG_2145.jpgIMG_2146.jpgIMG_2147.jpg Last edited by mcbean; 08-25-2018 at 08:43 AM. |

A great choice - all of his guitars I've seen have looked superb and his construction looks top-notch! Looking forward to seeing another one of his works come together!

Congratulations! I played my first Dion just last week and I was mightily impressed! I love the cedar - it's going to be a beauty for sure!

Dion's build threads have always fascinated me, and he has an eye and hands for detail… Best of luck!l
