I met Dino in 1996.  Being a freelance musician I have played so many different kinds of instruments (guitars, bouzouki).  I have never seen such a talented individual that can manipulate raw wood and turn it into a musical instrument.  In the recent years Dino made a guitar and a bouzouki for me and they sound superior.  I am using the instruments he made for me and it is a pleasure entertaining people with them.  The unique part of all this is that I am a left hand player playing a right hand instrument upside down (see photo).  I also enjoyed Dino's jokes about the unique way I play.  I appreciate Dino's patience, I know I drove him crazy.

Thanks Dino,
