Seriously, what percentage of Daion Performers were painted black, a rather high one by the looks of things lately! Anyway, anti black rant over for now ..........
Here we have a Daion Performer, one of the ones with the "WITH PRECISION-MADE TREMOLO" in small print on the headstock, which also features a single vintage style pressed string tree and split tuners.
The body is black with a black pickguard, the pickup covers are black, control knobs are black, and the rear cover plate is also black.
The neck looks like a beautiful piece of timber which has a lovely amber colour to it, with a rosewood fret board. The nut is white which is always a good thing, black nuts just don't look right to me!

Few chips on the body, body is solid wood,
not laminated. Neck is beautiful, 90% frets, fretboard is rosewood
laminated on curved maple as the 60's instruments were. I'm choosing my
words carefully as Fender Australia deleted my last add for breaching
something?? Not impressed.
Sounds and plays fantastic. I'm not
getting into the argument of Japanese made or Korean.....do some
research and you'll find 2 distinct performer guitars, one from Korea,
one from Japan (and one assembled in Korea from Japanese parts when
Daion were relocating. This is one of those with no made in ...... on
the neck plate) Neck will be removed for posting in well padded box
cost $30 anywhere in Australia. Merry Christmas :)
