This one looks real interesting. On another note, I can't believe how much they are still milking the Dimebag thing.

I'm digging the new line of Deans... you can see all the new ones for '07 on the first section here: http://www.deanguitars.com/electrics.htm

I plan on getting this:

I wish they'd make Matt Heafy's custom Razorback, that thing looks amazing.

Tasteful yet hardcore, lol. I don't like any of the current Razorback's aside from the two tone ones... all the other ones are just too over the top for me.

That Soltero is a real stunner.. but then again so is the price $5000.00 USD Drool

 

[GuitarsCanada]

Whoa, I never checked the price. That is getting up there for sure.

 

[Rumble_b]

Not really a fan of it. I just don't like that curve/cut thing on the top.

I have an original 1981 Dean E'Lite Deluxe, and it's the nicest guitar I have personally played. Anyone who picks it up tends to agree. I played one of the Dean Time Capsules which are one of the high end current line and it was beautiful.

You can find vintage ones for way less then $5000, but they didn't make a single cut back then.

Hey, it's TDU, lol. Is that the sweet blue one you've got or am I thinking of someone else? Whoever it was, that was one sexy guitar.

Only Dean in this house at the moment is my step dad's Dean Hollywood 'Z', zebra finish, feels, sounds and plays really nice. He usually just keeps it in the case though (it's a shame, really, it's my favorite guitar he owns... well, besides the cracked mirror Iceman).

Fugly. I don't know, I guess I just don't get Deans. Years ago my other guitarist picked-up one of the original Vee-shaped ones for $250. It had a really thin/narrow neck that was so rubbery it was almost impossible to play the thing in tune. I guess that soured me right off the top...Eric

I think the prices are expensive because all the guitars are built elsewhere. Last time I checked they were subbing all their building for their US models with US Custom guitars in Wisconsin................

Most vintage Deans I have played have some of the thickest, V shaped necks I have every played.

As mentioned every detail of mine is perfect. Right down to the nitro finish.

Ditto - I certainly never heard anyone before saying Dean necks were thin :confused-smiley-010 . The vintage ones had a great, fat V profile that is now used for the Time Capsule ones. That's actually the main reason I own one - I can't play on thin necks.

Cheers,

[torndownunit]

Ya, exactly. It's a wide, and thick V profile. One of my favourite neck styles I have played. My neighbour had 2 Dean V's, both from the 80's and they were the same. Not saying anyone is telling a lie or anything, I am just questioning if it's an original. A lot of the 90's RI's I tried did have thin necks on them.

 

[Lemmy Hangslong]

Just had a sit down with a Dean EVO Exotic Bearl. Very nice guitar. I tend to like the Deans without the BIG V CAN YOU SEE ME OVER HEAR HEADSTOCK.
The Michael Batio sig is very cool looking Armourflame... cool metal graphics for sure.
