Daion Savage For Sale on Trademe.co.nz

I know the motto of this blog is "Casually Tracking Daion Electric Guitars Seen & For Sale In Australia", but New Zealand is our closest cousin, and lets face it half of their population resides in Bondi anyway! That, and it gives me an excuse to show this Daion Savage, one of which I would dearly like to own one day.

This one is a delightful creamy white colour with a greenish-gold coloured pickguard, rosewood neck, black pickups, and control knobs, and chrome hardware with brass bridge saddles.  

The starting price is NZ$550, which at the current exchange rate is a more affordable AU$474.90, although postage would no doubt chew that difference up anyway if anyone wanted to get it over to Australia.

RARE Daion Savage, made in 1981 in Japan

DAION put a lot into their designs and workmanship, and are one of those non-Fender/Gibson brands that are sought after. This one has aged quite nicely. Some blemishes - See pics for condition.

Has two humbucker pickups, two volume and two tone knobs, and a switch for switching between the pickups. Not sure what the switch near the front humbucker is for (coil tap? doesn’t seem to do much). Brass saddles. Great, affordable quite rare guitar.

Has stamped serial number, and Daion Lyre logo. ALL ORIGINAL
