John Blundon
Hey Dean,
My name is John Blundon from Newfoundland, Canada. I play the Dean Dime Blackbolt ML. This is by far the very best guitar I have ever owned and played. The speed and agression of this guitar is well above and beyond anything I ever expected. As a huge Pantera fan since 1994, this guitar is my favorite of all time and a truly beautiful tribute to our fallen brother Dime.
Thanks Dean!
GET YOUR WINGS!!!

Hi,
I'm Mobi, guitarist of Belgian metal band ControlState. I've been playing guitar for about 16 years and I use 2 Dean Razorbacks as my main live guitars. I've been using Dean guitars for 3 years now, and I absolutely love them. The body and weight and neck are perfect for my playing style.
ControlState just brought out our first full album, entitled "The Powerhouse". You can download our full album for free on our website.
Do us a favor and checkout my band and let us know what you think: www.controlstate.com

My guitar of preference is the Dean ML Dime O Flame run to Dimebag signature Kranks and a Dunlop Crybaby from Hell. It's pretty clear what my influences are, mix em' together and you got one mean guitar playing machine!!!

Hey ! I'm Tom D. I'm 17 years old and I play guitar since i was nine years old. I have about 3 Dean guitars and I have to say that there are NO BETTER guitars. My favourite is the ''DIME o Flame''. They're the fucking best man. It's the choice of the shredder. The choice of the good player. As long as I test them on stage they don't come out of tune and they have a fucking awesome fretboard. Truly Great Guitars. Get your Wings man!!!!

Jasper Velberg
I'm Jasper from Holland, I've got my Dean V White Gold for a half year, and it's great. Never had a guitar like this one. It's pickups and wood combination is perfect for death metal, since I can tune it down to drop B. Dean guitars are awesome, and unbeatable. Stay brutal, keep it heavy.

Guys like Dimebag Darrel and Zakk Wylde are reason to get up in the morning...I want to be just as good if not better! Why let the famous guys get all the glory? Right? That's why i play an ML. Good enough for Dime good enough for me. It's got a nasty squeal and it sounds like a beast ready to attack! That's what Deans do for ya! I HAD TO EARN MY WINGS! If not what kinda guitar player am I? FUCKIN HOSTILE!

Shawn
Omaha, Nebraska
Hey all, this is Shawn from LouderThanLove. I'm the singer and guitarist of this roots driven rock n roll band, and have loved Dean guitars ever since I saw Rik Emmett of Triumph playing his sweet white one back in the early 80's. Now I have owned many a guitar, but to be honest, I haven't had a guitar that played as smooth as my '79 Flying V reissue...what a scorcher she is! So if you have some time, check out the band at our homesite and leave us a message if you dig it, at www.louderthanloverocks.com http://www.louderthanloverocks.com , or at myspace.com/louderthanloveband. We are an all original, straight ahead, southern and blues rock inspired band, so I hope you like what you hear!
Rock on people!
Peace & Love, Shawn

I actually have a new sense of direction with my music now. Thank you brother DIME and DEAN for the opportunity to be part of something REAL. You don't know what you've been missing until you play a Dean, do your FANS and your TONE a favor - GET YOUR WINGS!!

Khaled Gamal Abouel-Anine (KGA)
Country: Egypt
Band: Identity Crisis
Axe: Dean Z series
Bio:
Khaled was influenced by a school friend to listen to Metal. At the same time he was friends with Hani, both decided to pick a guitar and learn. Later Khaled met Makled on a bus, where they chit chated a little and found out that they liked the same music and played the same music, Khaled invited him to meet with hani so they can show off their guitar skills. At the moment Makled was in a band with Sherief Morris and Mohammad Soliman, Anelosimus. Makled used to jam with Khaled and learnt together different styles which made them understand each other. Makled then left Anelosimus and made a band with Khaled and Mohammad Abu el Anain, called Massive Indentations, later known as Cryptic Orb. The band then breaks apart due to misunderstanding, but Khaled and Makled promised they will always play together, and they continued. Khaled then joined Identity Crisis with Makled, Assi, Hani, and Enas
Khaled Gamal sarted using Dean Guitars and never without a grin will he leave them.
"I have got my wings Muthaf*cka's!!!" - KGA's quote when he first got the Dean.
Yo guys, I am Stain Doss from the band HottBoxx. Atlanta Georgia.Received a 12 string Dean exotica select for Christmas, This is a six string in the pic. These guitars are the total package cause the tone woods, sealed tuning pegs, rosewood fingerboard and mahogoany neck.To round off these awesome instruments are the onbard EQ, tuner and power amp. My soundman dosent even need to bring a D.I box. My wife could actually feel the power from this instrument while I was playing it across from her. All Hail DEAN.

Sergio Aravena
Hellow
My name is Sergio Aravena, Necrosis guitarist, I MAB1 Armorflame and is devastating.
I've Been Playing Guitar Most Of My Life And Never Made It Out Of My Living Room Until About 2 Years Ago When I Met JOEY BELLADONNA(Former Anthrax Front-man And Best Damn Person I've Ever Met). We Met At A Local Gig He Was Playing When Off Tour, Filling In Drums (Of All Things) For A Local Band That I Knew. They Asked Me If I Wanted To Play A Few Songs And I Thought "What The Heck-Happy Birthday To Me!"...After I Was Done, Joey Asked ME For My Phone #....Holy Crap!!! I Never Though I'd Hear From Him, But He Apparently Saw Something I Didn't See. Now For The Last 2 Years We've Been Tearing Up Songs(Mostly Rock Covers) And Have For Over A Year Been Playing Out 3 Or So Times A Week. When We First Met My Equipment Was Average At Best And Didn't Work Very Well For The 4 PLUS Hours Of Straight Playing (NO BREAKS!! Ever) All These Nights. He Turned Me On To My Deans And I Have Never Looked Back. DEAN GUITARS RULE!! Now With Over A Year Of Professional Experience And Traveling Quite A Bit, We're Going To Hit The Recording Studio With Some Completely New Stuff That You Can Only Imagine Is Gong To Be AWESOME, Classic Rock Vibe With A Metal Edge And One Of The Best Voices In The World Too...I Am Blessed And Thankful For All These Gifts And Thanks You DEAN For Helping Me Succeed As Well. Without Your Incredible Products And Help I've Recieved, I Don't Think This Dream Would Ever Have Come True!! I've Got My Wings, Now Spread The Word - I DO!!

Ron Fulk of Stone Anthem
Wow, I love my Spalted Maple Acoustic guitar from Dean Guitars. Stone Anthem recently recorded its debut CD called Always Unknown. I was looking for just the right guitar that would provide me the versatility that we needed for our very progressive rock sound. I could not believe how rich this guitar sounds. When our studio engineer plugged my guitar into the board he did a double-take. He was blown away by how incredible and true the sound was from the built-in Dean preamp and pick-up. I love this acoustic guitar!
Hey! My name is Heather Costin and I have been a Huge dean guitar fan for about 4 months now. Trying to show girls everywhere that we can Rock just as hard as the guys. I have played guitar since I was 10 and absolutely love it :) The band that I hang out with is called Necrobiosis out of Washington, NC. Influences are DimeBag and Vinnie paul of Pantera, Chuck Shuldiner, Death, Slayer, Sepultura, Soulfly, Six Feet Under, King Diamond, Mercyful fate, Transmetal, Rhandy Rhoads......just Heavy Metal in general.
From the age of eight i've been classically trained in an orchestra and been a musician for thirty four years. twenty eight of them playing various styles of music on guitar. I need to rely on an instrument that is dependable and has true tone. My DEAN is as comfortable as an old pair of jeans and is always there for me to rely on. HATS OFF TO YOU!! And thanks for years of dependability. SIAMESE KEESH FROM OHIO

I play all of the instruments in a solo project I've just started up and so far I have only got a small intro song up and I am still looking to get into a good metal band around me. My biggest influences are Rusty Cooley, Joe Satriani, and Michael Angelo Batio. I've had my Dean Razorback 7-string for a little more than a year and it's the best guitar I've ever played. Dean guitars have always sounded like champs no matter what you want to do with them. These guitars are the best guitars made in my opinion, so go out, get your wings, and keep rocking. Long live Dean Guitars!

Band: Necrosis
Guitar : Dean Demonator
Hey Guys, I'm the Lead/Rythm guitarist of a band called Sevrance in the Rock City itself, Detroit MI. I've been an admirer of Dean since I picked up my first guitar at the age of 12. I got my 2009 Model Black Bolt from my father when he went into surgery. I have played it for atleast an hour each day ever since. Dean Guitars feel right, I don't truly know what it is, but the feeling of all the people before me that have played from the Dean itself is astounding. Living the dream isn't an easy life. But with Dean, it will be a memorable one. Bein in Detroit in a band these days is hard work, but we play for the right to play itself. No one can stop that.
Hail my name's Richard Senko and i'm guitarist of Post Mortem, we're from Paraiba, northeast of Brazil. I really love my Dean Vx and all Dean V guitars, thats picture is my dean and i on stage, and i really fly when i get my wings!!

Hail! My name is Ákos Fazekas, and I am from Hungary Sopron.I am a lead guitarist and composer in 2 bands, called Art of Haven, and Epitaphium.
I also play the guitar in a side project, called Since Midnight.
It was a dream to be a Dean owner, but this year in 2009, the dream came true.When I first held my razorback explosion in my hands, I was totally shocked because of it's incredible look. After that , when I pluged it into an amp, a new universe opened to me in music composing. It has so inspiring tone and heavy sound that I can't put it into words. You have to listen to!!!!GET YOUR WINGS NOW!!!!
I'm JP Soule. I play guitar for Chicago metal band DEADMANSWAKE! Every great guitarist has a guitar they hold on to and fall back on when nothing else will do the job. My Dean EVO is my Number 1. It is my go-to guitar when I need playability, versatility and just balls-out tone like nothing else, live and in the studio! I've owned a lot of axes in my life and nothing holds a candle to my EVO!

Hi! I am Jan! I'm from Italy, and this is my Dean, Cadillac! I start to play guitar when I was fifteen. I played some guitars, bat my Dean is the best, because its "Voice" is very aggressive. With it, i play rock n'roll, heavy, thrash and death! Now, my dream is to buy the Michael Amott signature, Tyrant Bloodstorm! Thank you, Jan

I've been playing for 7 years now and of all the guitars I've played in that time nothing comes close to my Deans. Whether it be blues, rock, or rip-roarin' thrash, Dean guitars cant be beat.

Patyoh
Hi Patyoh here,
Melbourne, Australia
Bass man from the Blues / rock band Black and Blue......That's right The Blues. Well what can I say , here I am with my pride and joy The unreal Dean Cabbie Bass. What a top guitar. At every gig the dudes in the crowd just freak when they lay their eyes on this beauty. It's getting to the stage where people are knowing me by my bass," oh you're the guy with the yellow Dean"
Well thanks Team Dean for all the joy that you bring the world of music.
Hey, my name is Frank Aranda and I live in Chino Hills, southern California. I play all sorts of metal, from the softest to the heaviest. The first time I saw dean guitars was when Matt and Corey from Trivium first started using them, and I was immediately hooked by the shape of the razorback. Every time I went down to my local music stores I'd play all the deans I could and hoping that one day i'd be able to scrounge enough money together to finally bring one home. Eventually in 2006, with the help of my mom, I purchased my first dean: ML Noir. And then just yesterday I purchased my 'Dream Dean' for the time being, the Razorback 255. I love the feel of Dean guitars, smooth neck, fast fretboard, the floyd rose trem, and the crushing tone that I need to play metal. Now owning two Dean guitars, I hope to own more in the future and maybe one day become an official dean artist.

When it's time to rock, I pick up my Dean EVO Flamer and put the pedal to the metal!!!
Every song on our new CD, "SmashCan" 12-PACK has been "Cookerized" by the legendary Dean sound...
After backing up the greatest rock 'n roll bands in the world and headlining our own shows in clubs across the United States and Canada for nearly 35 years, I can trust my Dean to perform night in and night out on stage and in the studio...
Check out the music on myspace.com/smashcanwillrocku and stereofame.com...

Hi im Lee Hanson of Shadow Aspect (Kent, UK!!!) rocking my olde faithfull Dean Edge Pro!!! Tried a lot of stuff and can't find anything to match up to this sexual lump of wood!!!
Picture taken at the Sellindge Music Festival when we played the BBC Introducing Tent.
for 9 years i have never found the right guitar (mostly because i'm a lefty). But when i first seen the Dean Razorback Explosion Lefty i knew that one day i would own it. Sure enough 6 months after see it on the site it was mine and for that i am proud to call myself a Dean owner. it is basically the best guitar i have ever see, played, heard and i doubt very much i will play anything but this guitar for the rest of my days. it is rare to find a really good left handed guitar now a days... it's even rarer to find one that blows you away as much as this does day in day out.
Thank you Dimebag and Thank you Dean for creating this Monster of a guitar which is beautiful yet Brutal all at once.
I'm a Dean guitarist desperately searching for an answer on how i could become sponsored by you guys. I see this star page and would like to be included on it as well. Here's my story.. Last year i attended the Six String Masterpieces Darrell Abbott Art Tribute and took home the Tom Morello "SOUL POWER" ML guitar. The second i picked the thing up it changed my life and i knew what guitar i would want to play for the rest of my life. I currently own 3 Dean ML's and am looking to further my collection. I'd like to be a part of the Dean Stars page, but I'm also trying to dig a little deeper. A buddy of mine Justin Mazyk of End of an Era is featured on your Dean Artist page, and has told me he has a sponsorship with you guys. I'm trying all i can to get an answer to how i could become a Dean Artist, it would mean the world to me, theres so many more ML's that im just gawking at right now. In my band Through the Grey (www.myspace.com/throughthegrey) we play heavy guitar driven Metal and theres only one guitar that i can trust to get the job done. If you guys could help me out, just direct to someone that can, or even just check out my music and see how the Dean ML speaks to me, I'd really appreciate it.
Hey, I'm Cameron from C-falls, Montana. I've been playing bass about 4 years or so. I've played a lot of basses, and by far I love my Dean bass the best. I'm in a WACK ass deathcore band called WE DIED AT SEA!!! and the tone my Dean bass gives out makes our music that much more Br00tal. check us out on myspace(:

Hi Dean Guitars, my name is Paul Johnson and I'm from Fargo, ND. (Don't worry, I don't condone the use of log chippers. ha.) I picked up a Dean Z Tour Bass about a year ago and holy crap i love this bass! The harder I beat on this thing the better it sounds. I have two Dean basses now as i picked up a DOA ML bass not too long ago. You can see me thrashing these basses in my band GORGATRON on tou July/August 09'. Thanks for making some great playing and awesomely priced instruments!!!
This is a picture of me and my Dean acoustic, on stage in the musical Ring Of Fire, and I am singing the title song. I needed an acoustic/electric, and I looked no further than this Dean. I had to have it. It would make Johnny Cash proud.

Got My Dean about a month ago and have played it as much as i can.
Im 15 years old and Dean makes the best guitars on the planet.
I fell in love with my Vendetta the second I got my hands around her neck.
I’ve put that guitar thru 42 gigs so far and it still plays like the day I got it.
We play heavy ass music so I need one hell of a guitar to get the job done.
Thats why I just ordered my second one today.

Gregg Thauvette and Greg Gierszal rock out on their 1980 Vintage Dean V & Z.
Gregg gave me the 411 on Dean Guitars a few years ago, I bought the tobacco burst Z used online and I tell you there is no going back. It has a Bill Lawrence pickup in there and the tone is ridiculous. Best guitar ever made in my opinion.
Hey thanks for making us famous on DeanGuitars.com !

hi im joe from london england and this is my Dean ML X this guitar just stands out from the crowed the hole feel of it is a work of art thanks Dean for making this guitar : )
My name is Luke, I love both my Deans (just got the 79 today actually). I've been a huge fan of Dimebag (Riff in Paradise bro and keep a seat open for me with a 1.75 of Crown waiting!) since the mid 90's when I was in high school and I got my MLX back in 98 and loved it right off the bat. I had the EMG's installed in it 3 years ago and it just has such an amazing tone to it.....then recently I was offered a 79 ML w/ a case for $400 but my friend's turned out to have gotten bad water damage sooooo when I called the music store to see how much the went for new the guy I talked to offered me his!! Same price with a case even. He just came over today and took me 3 riffs in and I was sold (I lie....just looking at it I was 95% sold). I'm also a ginormous fan of Zakk Wylde and BLS....I've been told my personal style blends elements from both of them without sounding exactly like either. I would gladly get more Deans....the ML is such a perfectly balanced guitar and sounds amazing even with the stock Zebra's but takes it to a whole new level when you put hotter pickups in!!!

Hey, my name is Teja Buczkowski and I am from Elmira, New York. Ive been playing bass for 8 years, and 5 out of the 8 years I have been playing Dean basses and only Dean basses. I currently have 2 Deam MLs. I used to have a Dean Edge, but traded it in for a second ML because it was the best bass i have ever had. In the very near future I will be purchasing a Dean Demonator. I play bass in a metal band caller Iron Core. You can check us out at www.myspace.com/ironcore. Peace out and keep rockin.

First off, I have missed the boat with Dean. Never played them and didn't like them. My own personal predjudice and stupidity. I grew up in the states, so when I went back for the Razor Sharp 20 Year Reunion gig a few months ago I wanted to bring a guitar home. Due to the aussie dollar being way less than the US dollar, all I could afford was the Michael Schenker Standard V. He has been a guitar hero since '78, so I thought Why Not ? I'll give Dean a try.
My only concern was buying the "cheaper" version of the guitar. All doubts and worries were quickly cast aside when I plugged it in and played. THIS GUITAR RIPS better than any othe "V" I had ever owned. I love the tone, and love the feel of the way it plays.
"VALENTINE" FROM LAS VEGAS NEVADA currently on the "It's Gettin Hott in Here Tour" sports Dean all the way!!!!
This is Kevin Bailey, with his new dean schenker flying V, his father and kevin both are scorpion fans, and kevin loves his new dean, so look out dean heres a new dean lover, so keep making them bad ass guitars, so we can keep playing them...
Hi Dean, My name is Shannon Bailey, I'm 42 years old,and i live in Houston, Texas, and i just bought my first guitar ever, and it had to be a Dean..... I have 2 nephews that are very talented guitarist, i bought one of my nephews a dean dime-o-flame, since i am a big dimebag fan, mostly from the Pantera days, I remember seeing Pantera, back in 1983 for the first time when i got out of the U.S. Army, at Ft. Hood, Texas, and they used to always play at a club called Woodstock, then when they got Phil as their new singer, i lived and breathed Pantera ever since, and my other brother bought a Dean Schenker custom V, for my other nephew, i have already sent in pictures of them, so now here is mine, im not as talented as they are but i am going to keep learning, and i will be buying more deans for myself and for my 2 nephews, so keep on making the greatest guitars ever... thanks also Dean for not letting dimebags legend live on. R.I.P. Dimebag, you will be missed,, and thanks again Dean for a great guitar.. Shannon Bailey

Hi, i have a Dean Vendetta 4.0 and i love it! I love the sound and the awesome finish!!! Iin italy very few people have a Dean guitar and so, if you want, i can promote it italy if you help me to became famous!!!
Hi everybody, just to tell how this guitar is incredible.
The Vendetta 4.0 has just enough power to destroy any building.
Playing loud chords on this low tuned Dean, it's an Armaggeddon.
It looks terrible, guys! I'll never change for another one!
With my metal band Octavion, it gives the best, shows after shows!
Hell is back with Dean!
THANKS DEAN

Hey Check out my Dean Dime-O-Flame ML. I've been playing guitar since I was 10 years old. I always played Ibanez but never had thought of a Dean Guitar until I went to the NAMM show. I love Dimebag for bringing his stylish and most hard rocking guitar on the planet. This one is for him, RIP. Thanks to dean I can be really Cool or Hot or what ever people want to think. I love you guys and keep making great guitars.

Hi this is Scott Stetson from Milo, Maine. I currently play in a heavy metal band called Tomorrow's Tragedy and I am one of the guitar players. I have been playing guitar for about ten years, and I have been using Dean Guitars for almost two years. For on the road and in the studio I use Dean Guitars all the way. I use the Dime-O-Flame ML and the FBD Dimebag Tribute ML. I love these guitars to death. The neck is so fast and slick and I love the tone from these great sounding guitars. Recently I have bought the Dimebag Explosion Razorback and cant wait to bring it on the road and in the studio.
My biggest influences are Dimebag, Zakk Wylde, and Kerry King. Whenever I play my Deans I always have the memory of Dimebag with me. RIP Dimebag and thank you for all you have given me. Check Tomorrow's Tragedy out at...
I play in industrial band Hackmesser, and it's my lefty DS90EL.
I want to tell, that it really sounds differently with other guitars.
Using this one more then 3 years, I found the good way to express
myself, I tryed some other lefties, more and less expensive, but never feeled something close to
my Dean.
Hey this is Nate from Manitoba, canada. I currently own a Dean Vendetta 1.0 [Black] and wanted to say that it is the best guitar ive owned or played, the sound, quality and feeling is awesome. Thankz Dean, you RoCk!!

This is my Dean Playmate I snagged brand new for $100.00 which I was surprised I paid so little for. I just two days ago replaced it with your Baby V and I just gotta say you guys freakin rock when it comes to value and your pick ups are amazing. Thank you for being such a great guitar company and providing us broke ass musicians some good instruments. You can check out a video of me fingering my Playmate at www.myspace.com/h8foul

Yeah! Yeeaah! I love my Dean!! I have a beautiful acoustic that I like to play rock n' roll on. Yeah, like Master of Puppets even! The feel of it is so great that I simply won't pick up another guitar! Thanks dean, I can't wait be able to buy another!
textI just got my ML today and it is the best I have ever played. It is the cheaper of the Deans but the quality is great. It is very light! When the UPS guy dropped it off I thought they forgot to put the guitar in thats how light it is! Also it plays real fast. I will use Dean for life.

Hey, I'm Dave,
And I love my Dean! I've had an Evo Special Select for three years and havent once had an electronic problem with it. The pick ups are as vibrant and shredworthy as the first day I played it. Its suffered it's fair share of battle damage but the quality of its craftmenship has shown through. I LOVE MY DEAN SO MUCH! I'm in a progressive metal band called The Attrition and my Dean has proven extraordinarily versitile. I would love it if you would sponser me! I tell every guitarist I meet that my Dean is the best.
RIP DIME, Dave Breckner
Hey I got my Dean for Christmas and I love it. The guitar I got is a ZX model this thing rules. Thanks for all the glorious noise.

This is Heather Rose of Providence, RI. Here's a pic of me rocking out at Maxim Magazine's Model Search 2005! I wowed the crowd with my flame blue Dean Exotica FM! For years I searched for a company who made left handed guitars with the same care as they did their right-handed line and in 2003 I found it! My Dean doesn't leave my side on tour or on the go everyday! Whether is be an outside festival, a rockclub, or in the studio, the Exotica FM sound clear and rich! Thanks so much for putting the effort in! Keep it up!
Hey guys, just wanted to send in my pic and let you guys know how fucking kick-ass your guitars are.
I've known about Dean Guitars for as long as I've known about Dimebag and MAB. I got my first chance to play one when MMI music in Mobile started carrying Deans... coincidentally, the same day I played my first Dean was also the day that MAB was having a clinic... needless to say I stuck around there all day. I met MAB, and on top of that, he played a few of his songs on the guitar that I bought... so now not only do I have one of the best guitars in the world, I also have a guitar played by the man himself. Thank you Mr. Zelinsky.
hey guys my name is James "J.P." Rybicki, I started playin guitar about 2 years ago and used this little cheap immitation strat. So obviously I needed a new guitar. I shoped around for a few months and then I found it. My Dean EVO XM. It was only $100 so at first i was hesitant. then one day at the mall i was at the music store and i noticed it. They had my EVO. so i plugged in and was blown away. This was an awesome guitar at a really cheap price. so after my birthday i took all of my money and bought one. I cannot say how much I love this thing. All I can say is it rocks. Once I save up the money I plan on putting in some EMG pickups and Grover Tuners but even if i dont it is still an awesome guitar.
peace out

Hey Dean Fans,
This is Mark Wethern (Nickname FORREST) coming to you from
Rancho Cucamonga CA.
I Started Playing Guitar when I was 10 years old. Though the years I have had a Jackson Guitar, an Ibanez Guitar but nothing came close to my purchase of a Dean Dime-O-Flame ML Guitar. I Just fell in love with it. It feels good to know that I have something different for a change, instead of some plain old white guitar.
See Ya at the NAMM Show. FORREST A.K.A. Mark Wethern
Hey Mike here 17 years old, from BRADFORD – ENGLAND. i play in a metal band called MILITIA. I been play a DEAN “Z” TOUR BASS, it’s absolutely brilliant. Best bass I’ve played yet. I’ve been playing for a couple of years. I’m influenced by bands such as Manowar, Blind Guardian, Mr. Big, Iron Maiden, Slayer, Pantera, Metallica…(metal).I chose the DEAN because it was immense, its solid as a rock, the EMG pickups are beyond good and it fits the genre I play perfectly. I’ve played loads of bass’s and non compare to DEANS!! YES!!!!!! thanx for making the best guitars in the world! check my site www.myspace.com/metal_mike or my bands (MILITIA) site www.myspace.com/militiauk
