Ran into this bass yesterday in a music store in Provo, UT while in town for the WSU-BYU game. it's the Dean DBZ Imperial bass.
One of the nicest sounding basses I have tried, and a LOT of tone variation possible with vol/tone and also stocked treble and bass controls, as well as a coil switch. I played it through a Genz-Benz Shuttle 3.0 and a Genz 2x10 speaker and it just sounded incredible.
But the most interesting thing is that its body is only about an inch thick, and only 3/4" thick around the edges. Beautiful laminate body with mahogany base, maple top and flame maple veneer as the top layer. Set 34" neck finished in the same dark drown as the back of the mahogany body.
This music store had it at $679 and I was very, very tempted. This is one freakin' gorgeous bass with a lovely side profile and it's LIGHT. I'd guess its weight at around 8 pounds or just under.
But I'm kind of saving for a Gretsch Thunderjet...and those are big money. Cheapest I've seen used on Ebay in a year has been $1200.
