Mustaine sig is with Dean

[Spivonious]

Pretty asian chick asked: "Why did you pick Dean Guitars over all other guitar manufacturers?" (or something like that):

"Because Dean understands the value of Dave Mustaine and Megadeth." Dave Mustaine

Yeah I thought that was great! Typical, arrogant Mustaine. He's still awesome though

If you were listening when Dave walks away with Dean, he starts talking to one of the Dean CS guys and the guy says something to the effect of. We we busted these out as fast as we could, how do you like it?


So now we know that these were put together from 1st contact to NAMM in less than a month, and this may be the 1st time Dave has seen a real guitar. Now that is a rush job.

He first saw them 2-3 days ago and posted a message to the Megadeth boards..

Well you know the double-neck king-v guy which was a Megadeth roadie at the time. He was claiming that Dave was going back to Jackson.

I read his posts today and he was stating it didn't work at the last moment after Dean's offer.. That may be right "maybe"

that headstock is fuckn hideous

[donvandam]

The inlays and especially the headstock ruin it. The Dean wings logo doesn't help either.

God dammit, I wanted him to come back to Jackson

It's the worst mustaine guitar EVER.And the first Mustaine guitar that I don't want to buy.The worst move of his career is this guitar.I knew this was gonna happen.It's nearly same with the mockup picture.

Dots and Sharkies. Now, I really know where my fingers go.

[KingV1]

I like the headstock better than the Dean V-shaped headstock. The inlays are not the greatest but better than that ugly 8-ball on the ESP guitar.

its nice but id rather have the real thing.....and a floyd

did Dean site crash hard

appears so.

this is not good, as it will only serve to further inflate the ego of The Mustaine.
