How does it reflect his musical past? Why might Dion choose to associate to the song “The Wanderer” in such a visible way? / • Notice the painted rose detail on the guitar. How does this connect with the lyrics to “The Wanderer”? / • Dion is known more as a vocalist than a guitarist – yet this guitar was an important way for Dion to attach to his own musical identity. How might this reflect the complex musical evolution of rock and roll?"

    "#1 Phantasmonaut — Took a trip recently to the R&R HOF to see the guitar exhibit, and honestly this was my favorite piece! Couldn't find much history about it on Google, but I didn't look very hard. I've never seen anything like this before, does anyone have details? Looks like it could be what turned into the ES-137? Anyway, I'd buy this reissue for sure! ... ",
    "#2 Hayyz —————— It's a Gibson Howard Roberts Fusion. There was a few versions but I don't recall one with LP Cuatom appointments so I guess a one off for him or a prototype? / Cool guitars - they're were a bit smaller than a 335, and had a chromite (balsa) centerblock. They must have sold reasonably well because they were in the catalogue for ages. "
