A twosome proud Dean owner myself - where are my assless chaps? - I kinda like it. And Dean is value for money and an image that speaks with you if you are a heavy metal kid. I would have loved that brand as a teenager and died for their creations.

 I'll give them credit.....They've taken all the classic elements of what was a beautiful design and modified them just enough to create a really ugly bass - Kudos Dean!  :puke:

Dean Zelinsky hasn't owned Dean Guitars for at least 20 years. He later came back to the company but it was only as some sort of marketing consultant.

 I really don't think it wise to turn their backs on us, looks like a invitation to me. To quote my 14 year old daughter. those shorts say "open for business".
