Joe,
I think it is still right around 14 because I am/have traded a few of the Deans to make some deals. Crissy says I can get new ones just not add anymore.... so I plead confusion so as to keep her confused.

It's always my pleasure when I'm able to make a friend happy. It all started here for me as I'm sure most of you remember. You guys were always the best to me and I will always try to do my best for you! Thanks Bill, for the kind words and support!

Best of all, built by the man himself who designed the DEAN Evo, and many other great Deans, Mr. Ben Chafin. This guitar is absolutely incredible.

Congrats Bill!
We have the same taste in axes.
Glad Jay could hook you up.
I did however have a bad deal with Jay..... 7 years ago he sold me a set of strings and now they're all out of tune and rusty. I only played them for 5 years straight and never wiped them down.... and now all out of tune and dead sounding!!!! I can't believe it.
I had the guitar professionally tuned at a music store in 1980..... and I NEVER TOUCHED THE TUNING PEGS SINCE!!!!
Jay charged me $1.12..... and he won't refund my money.
he he

I did a complete review of this guitar other than the in depth Lewnworx wiring stuff if anyone is interested, PM me. I played it for about 7 hours so far and have a good feel for how she is.
