Ladies of Psychedelic Folk, take 2

Daion guitars were built in the Japan in the late 70s/early 80s.  I believe that the model depicted here is the L999 Legacy. Note the stylized ‘tuning fork’ logo on the headstock; Yamaha has used a similar motif for a century.

  • The Daion guitars were well made but sounded blah because they were overbuilt and had heavy urethane finishes. You can get them cheap now because the name is pretty forgotten and they make good travel; or starter guitars.
