Its a 'Canadian' Dillion DXC.

I'd marry it if it can cook.

Beautiful guitar! Play it in good health.

It is clearly the Chinese made Dillion DXC-650F Gold Top that is sold in Canada. A genuine imitation copy of a copy. No its not. Its very different looking from the new Dillion GTs available. That appears to be an early 2000s Canadian/US market Tokai when they were still testing the lawsuit boundri...

Looks like a Canadian Dillion with a Tokai headstock veneer to me. Anyone?
