Came across this today. It's near me but I'm undecided (as usual :D ), maybe it's gone already.
Anyone have an opinion?

Looks a LOT like a Daion I had back in the 90s. There are claims they were made by Matsumoku but no concrete proof as of yet. Some were made in Korea, others Japan. Fairly good price for a guitar of this type, Korean or Japanese. The truss cover looks like Hondo.

Thank you for the input Crusty! I think I'll pass on it.

If it were in my area I'm pretty sure I'd be having a GAS attack right about now. :rofl:

I will add the two Daions I had (solid and semi) were top shelf, right up there with anything coming out of Matsumoku.

If this were in the St. Louis area I'd have a difficult time passing it up.

I too am out of my allocated space for music stuff!
The white Vantage Avenger was guitar number 40.

Lord help us all! :roll:

If you know how many guitars you have, you don't have enough.
