Kid Gets Anonymous Gift of Dimebag Darrell Guitar….and It’s Heartwarming as Hell

By Ned Jan 3, 2022 | 12:46 PM

Here is a good way to start out the year.

It’s only been 3 days of 2022, but it’s off to a pretty decent start…mostly cause of this heartwarming story.

A kid named Fallon loved visiting his local guitar shop in Grand Junction, CO where he would pick up his favorite guitar, the ‘Dean from Hell’ made famous by Pantera’s Dimebag Darrell. Fallon also happens to have a thing called Williams Syndrome and playing this guitar brought him a ton of happiness anytime he would visit. He even played Pantera riffs while hanging in the store!

An anonymous customer apparently knew about Fallon, and…you guessed it…came in one day and purchased Fallon the guitar! But…Fallon wasn’t there, and had moved away.

However, on a visit back to his hometown with his family…Fallon came into the store for a visit after months and there was his suprise…his very own ‘Dean from Hell’ gifted by a stranger. Ughhh….that is awesome, and the look on his face is PURE DIME and you can see his excitement.

Apparently Pantera THEMSELVES took notice of this and has contacted his family, but I haven’t seen anything about that yet.

Let’s keep 2022 going like this shall we?
