DOA 2004
Bigger and Better than ever!

The third annual Dean Owners of America Club (affectionately know as the "DOA") meeting was held this past Friday, Feb 27th 2004 in Clearwater, Florida! Hardcore Members of the DOA from all over the globe, trekked to the Dean World Headquarters for two days of red carpet treatment which consisted of killer live music, guitar ogling, autographs, a facility tour, giveaways, surprizes, workshop,and a 5 Star evening of food, drink, and unrivaled hospitality.


"Dean Z & Co welcome all"

The first night consisted of great performances by Michael Angelo Batio, Anita Brunette, Bad Karma, the Genitorturers, DOA member jams, and Dean Owner Elliott Rubinson once again laying down the law with his monster chops (awesome!!!). The setting was absolutely unreal, being hosted at none other that the world famed Kapok pavillion and special events center. Needless to say, the food was superb,the open bar and the hospitality.


"Michael Angelo Batio Going off!!!"

The next afternoon was a fever pitched day of guitar ogling, autographs, a facility tour, giveaways, surprizes, a vintage Dean exhibit, and a chance to see and purchase new and vintage Deans. There were one 1-on-1s with the entire Dean Crew, with considerable notes on "The phenomenon behind the extraordinary USA Guitars".The highlight of the day included the revealing of the 2004 Limited Edition DOA ML.
