Any one ever heard of Dillion Bass's ? I have run across one and trading mine for it. Let me know if you know about them. It sounds and plays great. The scale is a little shorter too. I like it. Thanks Gary

If I remember correctly, Dillon is a Korean company, who specializes in cheap knock offs of Gibson/Fender designs.
Check to make sure it is not plywood. I forget who owns Dillon, or who they subsidise from. From a cosmetic stand point they look nice, but I honestly could not tell you what they sound like or the fit/finish of them.

I've messed around with a Dillion Stingray copy in a store once. It was a very decent instrument for the price. I can say that it blew the OLP Stingray copy out of the water, but the Dillion was also about $300 more than the OLP too.
