Evan Rubinson running Dean Guitars into the ground

It was the early 80's, everyone was tripping over each other's dicks to make super Strats.

The only thing I'm salty about is that Kurt Cobain caused the great Super Strat market crash of the 90's and now Gibson and Fender don't make their rad super strats any more.

Apparently Dean is already capitalizing on their V and Z unbanning

The only thing that I don't really like about this is that the Floyd isn't recessed.

When Dean sticks to being "Gibson with slightly different shapes" they can really make some pretty things. I quite like this. I also always liked the Caddy as a "Not an LP, but close."

Isn't the Cadillac just a miniaturized Explorer front end with a big circle on the back?

Pretty much.

I would love to try one of the neck-thru Exile Selects(?) if I could ever find one in stores. I swear, they announced these years ago but have yet to actually make any. If they could get their shit together and offer these with more options (seven string, Kahler, hardtail, etc.) I think they would sell decently well since the RC/X models used to be super cool.

Getting a super strat from Dean or BC Rich is like going to a whorehouse just to play a game of cards

Like going to Texas Roadhouse and ordering fucking chicken strips.

And always getting bad hands, their superstats are always the most boring or ugliest of the bunch

Call me crazy, but the RC/Exile and Gunslinger have grown on me over time. I think I’m biased towards the former as I was super into ASP & Chris Storey back in the day who played these exclusively as far as I know. The RC7, LTD EC1000 and SC607s are like the quintessential 00’s deathcore guitars.

Michael playing a new prototype called the “Wraith” which is a sort of X shape in this new video.

We've stayed too far from the perfection that was his ESP sig

Yep. Doing pretty damn well for being nearly 60 years old. My fat ass needs to hit the gym.

Cradle of fitlh vibe here.
Fact: adding a horn to a V won't give you something nice looking.
Between this and the scarab Kerry king model...come on dean, hire some designers...
