Hey Dean,

Just wanted to say That my New 79' ML kicksass, the best I have ever played pure Joy.


Holy crap!... i just got my new Dean today (first dean ever, i know its inexcusable). Its the Vendetta 4.0 w/ the barbed wire inlay. Lets just say that Dean is by far the best damn guitar in the world. That shouldn't even be considered an opinion, but sadly it is.

I got the MSV (Michael Schenker V) today and to say that I was blown away would be an understatement. This guitar is sweet. Killer look (the advertisement doesn't do it justice), great tone, and outstanding playibility. As I told you before I had never played a Dean Guitar prior to making this purchase (never even picked one up in a store), however I may have to re-think this in the future. I own 2 vintage Stratocasters, a vintage Les Paul, a nice Hamer and a custom Carvin. This guitar plays better than them all. And to top it all off it signed by the man himself! I need to stop writing now and go play some more! Thanks for the great service.

So the picture you got here is from my main axe "Dean Phantom V" and I at one of the stages of W:O:A 2004!! Although it's "just" a Korean made Dean, it beats up my other guitars in playability. It has a greater look anyway. :)

Just want to let you know that my Dean Phantom V and I made it to the stage of the largest Metal Festival in the World...Wacken Open Air in Germany!! We played there and it was amazing!

Hi all at Dean,


Just thought I would drop you a line to let you know how thrilled I am with my new EVO XM. What a guitar, what a price. Now I know this is not the American made Dean, but your quality and control standards can be found in this little gem. Great guitar for those of us who will not be taking the stage anytime soon, but still have a need to crank out the tunes! The finish is great, the tuners hold very well, easy to play, super light weight, and it has got my name on it 4 times!!
Great work,

Dean B.



Just wanted to write and say how happy I am with my new '79 series Z. I have never seen this kind of value in a guitar before, and couldn't be more pleased. Purchased it about 2 weeks ago, give or take, and have barely put it down since.
I'm fully amazed at the tones I'm able to achieve with this guitar, especially at this price. The finish is also high above average. Thanks for making such a great product. I have recently received my tax returns, and am presently longing for a new Time Capsule( C-necks are nice, but V-necks are even better). You've got a new customer for life.....will never play anything except Deans.

Thanks again,

79 ML silverburst Bass & Treble

Again Dean Guitars pulls another rabbit out of their hat! I received my ultra rare and ultra cool Silver burst ML today and I havn’t put it down since I got it out of the case! It looks as great as it plays. I can’t thank you enough for making just great guitars at great prices that play better than guitars twice their price range!

Kudos!

Joe C.


79 Z,

This is a smokin guitar for the price......got a thumpin low end, and the highs are SWEEEEET man.....also, this is the most beautiful guitar I\'ve ever seen for under 5 bills; the top is frigging perfect. Thanks for making this tone available to people unwilling to pay $6000 for a Les Paul.

Sincerely,

Stylist Standard

This guitar resonates so good I just could not put it down.I didn\'t even plug it in an amp.It just waves with harmonics.

Thank You!!!

Peter M..


I just want to let you know - I'm getting one of your guitars! It's a Dean Baby Z. I've gone back to the store to play it and look at it almost all week. I'm going to be making my first payment on sunday.. Unfortunately i don't have enough cash to outright pay for it, so it will take about 2 or 3 payments to get it. I've read tons of good reviews on this guitar, and i thank you for making it! This will be my second official guitar. The last one i had about 4 years ago got stolen, but luckily it wasnt a very good guitar. Anyway, i'm going to cherish this thing like its my kid! Thanks, Dean!

- Cory

Dean Guitars,


I started out by buying a New Dean Razor FS off eBay and I was amazed at the quality and craftsmanship for a guitar in that price range. After two weeks I had another Dean. I bought a second hand Dean Tonic D. Within another week I had a new EVO SS. Now I have a Caddi Select and a Caddi X. I just got a used Avalanche MQ. I sold a Fender or Epiphone before each Dean I bought. I even sold a Martin D 15 before I got the EVO SS. I have to keep the wife happy you know.


You have me hooked. I think the Caddi Select and EVO SS did it. I've been playing guitar since 1962. I've owned nothing but Fender Strats, Tele's, Gibson Les Pauls and Epiphones all that time. I will never go back now. I'm pinching pennies and selling off more gear on eBay to try and get a couple of higher end Deans.


Thanks for producing such quality guitars at REASONABLE prices. Dean guitars are by far the best quality/sound to price bargain I've ever seen. I have a friend who is the guitar tech in our local music store who is very interested in Deans. The store only sells Fender, Takamini, PRS and Jay Turser (we are a small town). I've taken each Dean I've bought to show him, and everyone in the store wants to play them. I'm spreading the Dean gospel. You have a new true believer.

Best Regards,


HARRY S


 

MR.DEAN, I bought a brand new, sunburst Dean stylist (standard) In Sept.of 02. and since then, I allow nobody to play it, because, I get Jealous!!!!!! THANK YOU ! THANK YOU ! I LOVE MY DEAN. It is a masterpiece... And am proud to own one.


Hi Folks,

I upgraded today from an Avalanche Zone S to the Avalanche One. I picked the Brazil Burst. I gotta tell you it is one beautiful guitar! I almost bought a standard Strat. I'm so glad I didn't. Anyone who plays these two guitars and buys the strat is just looking for the name. Thanks again for making such great affordable instruments.

Dear Mr. Dean Zelinsky,

WOW!,WOW!, WOW!, I mean, I can´t belive it.

I´m very pleased to have had a reply from the very creator of the most beautiful and spectacular guitar in the whole world, in my opinion; I never thought you´d reply so soon. As I wrote in my previous message, I´m interested in ordering an ML standard american made model with the same shape as the body of the original 1.981 edition (this is my guitar). Regarding this I have a question:

I´ve seen some pictures of recent ML american models guitars in the deanguitars.com website and I´ve notice a difference that you can see in the pictures I´m enclosing in this message. My question is: Can I trust you to build an exact copy of the original ML standard 1981 body according to the details I´m putting into circles in the pictures?

The specififcations for my guitar would be as follows:

-Set mahogany neck (joined at about the 19th fret)

-Neck scale: 24 3/4 & 1 11/16 nut

-22 frets ( Dunlop 6100 fretwire )

-Rosewood fingerboard with dot inlays (15" fingerboard radius) -No binding on sides of neck (I´d like the neck to keep the same width as if it had binding) -Black headstock ( original Dean large "v shape" headstock) -Mahogany body with natural wood finish ( No binding on sides of body) Could you also send me a catalog of ML´s via e-mail? or maybe in some other way, please let me know.

Sincerely,

Chandler Hung

consider us and give me some news.

Just wanted to say thanks for the BEST guitar on the market! Have wanted an ML since 1976 or so when I first saw one. Just ordered a new ML Select today in flame cherry sunburst. Wish I could spend the money for a usa model, but can't at this time.....maybe later.... love the guitars!! Keep up the good work... Lived in Sterling, Illinois when you were in Chicago..lol. Just had to say thanks though.

ML's FOREVER !!!!!!!!!!!!

I just purchased a baby v it is the best guitar I have ever played. Its also super lite that's just what I was looking for. my next guitar purchase is going to be, you guessed it another Dean maybe the V xl it looks great. Thanx for the quality.

play fast, play hard and rock on!


You Have One Very Happy Customer!!!

Hi My name is Don B. I live in Missouri. I've been playing guitar for over 30 years and just recently purchased a Chafin and I could not be more happy with the incredible sound and range of the harmonics that this displays... I know that there are a lot more expensive models on the market that don't even come close to the tremendous sound this instument offers.. My compliments to your staff and look forward to purchasing my next Dean guitar...if you have any promotional items, I would love to
proudly display your products.

Thanks Again,

Don B.


 

Hi Dean,

I hope the NAMM show went well for you all. Just thought I'd drop a note to let you know that since I bought the Korina Z several weeks ago I have now just bought a ' 79 V and a ' 79 ML both in the braziliaburst finish. I can't say enough great things about your guitars! These other manufacturers would do well to take a few lessons from you. Keep up the great workmanship. My Les Paul has been put into retirement. thanks for great guitars. I found this quote and I am sure you may have seen it also. The Guitar is Intensely Personal in an Impersonal World. There is no obstacle between the Instrument and the Heart only the slight layer of skin on the fingertips. The guitar is a small gentle voice in the midst of this world's noise, that is why the world is listening to Andres Segovia. The world is listening and you provide fantastic guitars for those of us who choose to express ourselves through our music in a way that many wish they could.

My greatest thanks to you and your company.

Hi , I was just looking at scratch and dents on musicians friend and came a cross a Dean ML-X and bought it. I've always wanted an ML. It only cost $179.00. so i didnt have high hopes. But when it showed up and i pulled it out of the box it looked mint and felt great. I had to do a few minor adjustments before playing it. When i pluged it in and started playing, it blew me away. It played and sounded as good if not better than guitars that cost 4X that. I'am hooked.I own 15 other guitars. Iam looking to try out a V and Z from the 79 series, if they're anything like the ML-X i picked up, I'll be one happy guy. The ML-X will be going on tour with me this summer thru the US and europe and if i could locate one of the the 79 series it will also go.

Thanks for a great product.

Rick Drago from DEAD ON ARRIVAL


I bought a brand new Dean Tonic guitar from a dealer on ebay a few months ago,and I really like the guitar.It has a great neck and action.I choose a guitar by picking it up and playing it,not paying any attention what company made it.This Dean was an instant hit with me(I have been playing,off and on,for 35 years-mostly blues and rock).Just wanted to say how pleased I am with this guitar.It was a real bargain too.Recently I decided I might like to get a classical guitar.When I spyed a used Dean classical(the one with the cutaway body,and built in pickup),I played it for a few minutes.Man,I want one!!This Dean plays great too!So now,I'm saving up for one of these.


Thanks,and keep up the great work-that is making great playing guitars for us mere mortals,on a mere mortals budget.Now if I could just find one of your amps.....

:::79 ML:::

Hi Dean! Let me first say thanks for creating such an incredible guitar like my 79 series ML! My true love is the Time capsule Caddy, but when I saw this beautiful ML I was speechless! Then I picked it up and it was all over. Could beat the price either ($377)! My question is what are the spec on this ML?? The web site really offers no in depth specs. I'd like to know the body and neck wood (probably mahogany) I know it's a set neck, rosewood board with abalone dots, but what about the pickups? Also one suggestion, BIGGER frets, like something with .055" height for some serious bends of course. Thanks Dean your the greatest!!!

A customer for life,

Jesse


Hi Dean On your Stash.


Those newest Guitars are sweet, I have the Black Dean its Like the #3 Brazilliaburst, but its black. Dang I love that Guitar, After playing a heavy BC Rich Bich I decided to go into a Store to try out one of your Deans, I immediately fell head over heels for the Dean. No Guitar can compare to the Deans, this Guitar is everything a guy could want in a Great Guitar! All I can say is when you were younger you had a great idea and that is todays Deans! I think though my Dean was made like in the middle 80's. Which was a great time for us all. I loves the early an middle 80's, alottah great Metal was recorded, an ohhhhhh the Concerts.

Well keep up with the Great Work your doing. My son Charles wich is 13 teen has a Dean Play Mate Bass, he an I got our Guitars on the same Day. He's taking Bass Lessons, an just loves the Guitar, he was playing one day an looked up with a grin, an said Mannn that Dean makes a Great Guitar, this is Great Dad I'm having a Blast!!!

Thanks Again,

Joe LaFave S.R. and Charles.


Hello,

I just want to say I have been playing a 6-string electric guitar for 16yrs now and musicians friend had your avalanche ultra 7 on sale before last christmas. On a impulse to add something different to my playing and get a new toy I purchased one. WOW!!!!! This thing is great!!! This is my first Dean and I Love it!! I have been playing it since before christmas and it just feels natural now. I have since sold my 6 strings and I am 7 all the way. Thanks for making such a great guitar at an affordable price. I thought the dean would sit in the corner and only come out to play once a week for fun but it is my main squeeze now. Thanks Again

Paul P.
