The 30th anniversary of Dio’s debut, “Holy Diver,” is being celebrated with a limited-edition guitar made by Artist Series Guitar.
Finished with Dio's exclusive artwork and built with solid mahogany, the Dio ASG is set with artwork from the "Holy Diver" album release. Once the graphic has undergone the ASG-designed, chemical bonding process, the guitar is then clear-coated, wet-sanded and buffed. This process forever seals the custom graphic to the guitar.
With only 30 to ever be made — one to mark each year of Dio — this rare anniversary guitar is set to sell out fast.
Pre-sale will begin on July 10, to mark what would have been Ronnie James Dio's 70th birthday.

Released on May 25, 1983, “Holy Diver” has been hailed by critics as Dio's best work and a classic staple in the heavy metal genre. The album was certified Platinum for sales of 1 million copies in the US in March of 1989.
