There are two reasons why I am reviewing this guitar. You have to know that I own, have owned dozons of guitars. Right now fro acoustics I am playing a Breedlove AC250 and before that a Martin D28. I haven't review these guitars because they are expensive and they are suppose to sound good. What BLOWS me away about this Dillion is how AWESOME it sounds for the money. It is one bright guitar. I sold my Martin, I sold my Dean QES, I SOld my Seagull S6 and son on.. I WON'T BE SELLING THIS GUITAR.

The action is the other reason I am reviewing this guitar. It is the best I have epxerienced on any acoustic guitar bar none. It beats my $2800 Martin and my $1700 Breelove. I can bar chord up on the eleventh fret with no effort and hear every string clearly...no muffle. I don't know if this particular guitar I got is just a fluke or what but it really surprises me.

For the money I spent on this guitar I am simply amazed. In my mind I am trying to tell myself that I prefer my other more exspensive acoutics but I know my heart is with this one. I love it.

this is a new guitar , solid top, made in korea, laminated mahogany back and sides, kluson style tuners, mahogany neck, pickguard is hummingbird style-painted on not engraved-if I had known this I would not have bought it, cherry sunburst finish I ordered a case for $70.00 extra, for what I paid it should have came with a case.

the guitar sounds good that's the only reason besides the $60.00 IT WOULD COST ME TO SHIP IT BACK, good full sound for this price range

the frets buzzed on the first three frets, adjusted neck rod took care of this, frets and workmanship are good

here's the problem with this guitar, it is light if you buy one of these after reading this ,if you ever put medium gauge strings on it the top would most likely belly or sink in, I was so worried about the top I went ahead and installed the jld bridge system th keep the top in good shape [I hope], I would not buy this guitar if you treat one harsh I don't believe it would take it

this thing has a 2 year warranty, and if you alter the guitar in any way it is void, never dealt with dillion

I have been playing and collecting guitars for thirty years, I own some martin and gibsons and several copies, if this guitar had a lifetime warranty I would feel better, don't like the pickguard for what this guitar costs it should have been engraved and thicker, I wrote this review so if you see one on the internet you can have a customers opinion I did not when I bought it, I WOULD BUY AN EPIPHONE HUMMINGBIRD WITH THE LIFETIME WARRANTY
