Announcing the HALLMARK "DEKE DICKERSON" model guitar!

Hallmark Guitars is doing another production run of the limited-edition Deke Dickerson model guitar, and Deke is selling them
here on his website! This guitar is the brainchild of Deke and Bob Shade of Hallmark. Deke has always felt that many guitar players would love a guitar with the features of his famous doubleneck but without the burden of the extra neck!

The new guitars will be available in January and can be pre-ordered now. Buyers now have a choice of sunburst or blonde finish. The sunburst is available with gold or chrome hardware, and blonde with gold hardware only.

Some of the guitar's features:
1. Chambered ash body with a maple front and back
2. Indian Rosewood fretboard with inlaid dot markers and medium frets
3. Two JM-6 "Maphis-style" pickups--not found on any other current production guitar!
4. Shade roller vibrato
5. Fancy armrest and pickguard, just like Deke's!
6. Hallmark hardshell case

NOW AVAILABLE! Deke's new album King of the Whole Wide World!!



Deke can be heard on the new hit XM satellite radio program Theme Time Radio Hour with Bob Dylan providing guitar music and -- coming shortly -- interview quotes. If you listen to the show and hear guitar music between segments, that's Deke! The first two shows featuring Deke's music are "Luck" and "Laughter." Deke also did a big interview for the show and they will start using clips from it soon. Read more at XM's web site
