Dion 2018 Demo guitar now available

[Dion James]

I built this guitar in early 2018 as a demo guitar for the La Conner guitar festival, The Vancouver International Guitar Festival, Sonore festival in Montreal, and the European Boutique Guitar Showcase.

After a busy year, this wonderful guitar is back in my shop and available for purchase.

I’m offering this guitar at a 10% discount due to its demo guitar status. It’s in near brand new condition with only a few light signs of use.
