Nice Deans!

Matt Heafy's guitar must be the most pathetic excuse for a stringed instrument ever, that is truly terrible. I know he has Asian roots and heritage, but that is really taking the piss. He has already had a bad reputation for being a hetfield-copying, metalcool -kid and this is just one step gheyer.

Aka, PC-1....

You really think that thing looks like a PC1? Maybe if a PC1 was aborted at birth. I personally like some of the Dean stuff but when you pointed that out.. No... that guitar is no PC1.. (LOL) Someone (at dean) needs to go back to the drawing board if that's there answer for a PC1 more like a PC-Sub20. I don't like that body at all.

I'm sorry to say it but I like that Red V (Whoever signature guitar it is) it looses it at the neck and head stock.. and pot position... and jack position.. well... ok... I like the cut outs on the body. (lol) the rest, not so much. ML's are cool though still

Just what I needed...a ML Acoustic.

That's what I thought,too.



Funny, all the "number1 wannabe" guitar companies keep copying Jackson models.

Of course Jackson did basically rip off the Razorback V for the Demmel. The just moved the cuts closer to the middle. That's just my opinion though.

I kinda thought the same thing. Though, the Demmel looks cooler to me.

Tommy Bolin and Dean?????????????????????????????????

Yeah, the Demmel is definitely cooler. Not to mention, it will probably retail in the same ballpark as the Deans, but at least it has real EMG's, a real Floyd, ebony fretboad ... you get the point.

Also, am I the only one who thinks those decal finishes look cheap as shit!

They have been putting out some ugly guitars as of late, but some of their axes play wonderfully. I used to work in a shop that sold ESPs and Deans (unable to get a deal with Fender, so sadly no Jacksons). We had a few Dean USA hardtail models and they ripped. I also had a chance to play the USA Razorback (rust finish) last time I was in New York. Uglier than hell, but that thing KILLED. Set up flawlessly, played like a Ferrari shifts. I love the quality of the instruments, I hate the way they look now.

The Dean Girls from NAMM 2008:



I've never been into Dean Guitars and think pretty much all the Dimebag axes are pretty ugly. I actually ran into Chris Caffery from TSO at the Dean booth this year and told him his Rhoads looked much cooler than his current Dean stuff They did have a TSO Dean guitar there:


I thought the best looking Dean was by far the Michael Angelo model:

[thebigz]

Some of them look cool, but every time I see that huge headstock I think of someone who posted here about the stubby king v saying it looked like a dean headstock with a fretboard.

I can't help laughing to myself every time I think that.
