Acoustics...
Hi,
Just
wanted to write and say how pleased I am with your Dean exotiglass
acoustic guitar. It is incredible! Here's why:
I
am a 41 year-old woman songwriter, and I had resigned myself
to only writing lyrics for the past twenty years...letting my husband
and cowriters play the guitar. I have a bad right shoulder and
small "artist's" hands. Never could comfortably reach around
a standard guitar body, much less deal with the hard action
of those "other" much more expensive guitars. It was too intimidating,
and I was starting to get gray hair. My husband thought I should
try to play a Baby Taylor, so I dropped by the music store this
last Christmas, and while some nice kid tuned up the Baby Taylor,
I glanced over and noticed your Dean. It had a beautiful rich
brown color and the abalone inlay caught my eye. The split second
I laid my hands on it, I knew it was the guitar for me. The
feather weight, narrow width, and light action felt absolutely
awesome. The pickup worked fine, and adjusted well. The sound
was clean and rich. Just to make sure, I set the Taylor on my
lap one more time......and it was no contest. This Dean guitar
not only sounds better and less "muddy" than the Baby Taylor,
(or most of the Martins, Fenders or whatevers in the store),
but it is the perfect woman's acoustic guitar. Especially performing
songwriters. I could play this guitar nearly instantly with
steel strings, and I'm proud to say that I can rock out! (Not
the least reason being my bank account isn't empty....) I simply
wish I had found this guitar when I first started writing. Look
out, Bluebird Cafe'.......here I come!
Best
Regards, and THANKS!

p.s./
my husband and most of my songwriting buddies want to steal
it...........um, got any Dean guitar theft-alarm systems?
My son and I have purchased 4 Dean guitars over the past year. Two 6 string acoustics, one 12 string acoustic, and last week I purchased an Avalanche MQ electric. While we are not giging musicians, we do play them a lot and have found them to be genuinely good products. I selected the Avalanche over a MIM Strat and I'm glad I did. The guitar just feels right in my hands.
I'd been hacking on an old beatup acoustic for the past 20 years when my son went out and got his own. I got the bug after hearing him play and decided it was time to get a real guitar. I purchased my acoustic and electric within one month of each other. It is possible that my son now has the electric itch, as he was looking at Deans over the past weekend. Maybe there will be 5 in the family.
We can't pass up a chance to acknowledge Sticks & Strings in Painesville, Ohio. Mark sold us all four guitars. He knows musical instruments and the Dean line very well. I would suggest anyone looking for an instrument should pay them a visit. They are an asset to your sales organization.
Thanks,

Bill,
I received the Dean D24 last Friday. MAN THIS IS A GREAT
GUITAR.
I played about 40 guitars (Martin, Guild, Gibson, Taylor, Tacoma,
Fender,Hofner, Ibanez, Ovation) and ordered 2 different Washburn's
before I ordered the Dean. I don't know who did the setup on
this one, but it's almost perfect!!! The relief is about .006
(almost no relief) and the strings are a little over 3/32nds
at the 12th. fret. I put a set of Elixirs on it and the tone
is great, the resonance is great, the sustain is great, the
action is great and to top it off it LOOKS AWESOME.
Where are Dean Acoustic guitars made?
Thanks - I thought you might want to hear some positive feedback
on one of your acoustics.

Hello Mr. Rubinson
I just wanted to
let you know that yesterday, I took my son out to shop for an
acoustic guitar. He already has for electrics and a classical
but when ever he needed to use an acoustic, he had to use my
old Washburn. Since this Saturday is his 17th birthday, I thought
this would be a good time. We went to my friends guitar store(The
Only Guitar Shop) in Clifton Park, New York. Among the Taylors,
Martins, Taka, etc,. We saw five Dean accoustics hanging up
and my son picked up a Performer DSEGN (ser. no. 00121125).
We compared it to Fenders, Takas,Ibanezs,Takomas, and a couple
of under a thousand Martins and it had better workmanship,better
sound plugged and unplugged and overall looks!! My son was blown
away by it!!
We are very happy
with this guitar(and I still love my accoustic bass).
Thank you again and continue to produce affordable, high quality
guitars.
This guitar blew
away the others I mentioned.One of my students have already
bought a Dean for his lessons and he likes it also.
Thank you

Dean dudes,
I just purchased
my first Dean guitar and it was the Nouveau CR Acoustic, and
all I can say is WOW! I think it sounds awesome and looks killer.
I've received nothing but compliments when I pull that guitar
out of it's case. Even nice compliments from Taylor and Martin
owners. It sounds great through the P.A. system I play through
and looks great on stage. I was considering the Gibson J-185EC,
but had a problem with the price for just an acoustic guitar.
The quality and price was perfect for what I was looking for
and I'm absolutely happy with my decision. The action is low
- which is what I like - and easy to play. I did replace the
strings with Elixers and it even sounds more vibrant.I will
highly recommend the Dean Acoustics to anyone in the market
for a new acoustic guitar or for that matter, in the market
for any type guitar.
Keep up the good
work,
Roland Gonzales
