Mystery Man joins Dean Guitars (Kerry King)

[Chanson]

Cant imagine they're going to sell all 50 at that price lol

 

[ArtDecade]

Kerry has a great sense of humor.

 

[oppgulp]

Oh, expensive!

 

[Señor Voorhees]

Huh... An unattractive price for an unattractive guitar. Not that I was in danger of buying one for ~$1000-$2000, but there are a lot of top tier guitars you can get for below that price. (Admittedly, he is a big name and it's a collector's piece so who really knows?)

 

[Chanson]

The USA limited CFL Dimebag ML is like half the price. Bold move..

[Spaced Out Ace]

The fucking CRINGE is strong with this one!

 

[Bdtunn]

I did a bad thing again and read the comments under deans post introducing this, seems like they have a TON of support for it. It won’t sell in a forum like this but slayer fans will I imagine flock to it.

 

[mpexus]

Could it be that is new KK Project Logo.

Anyway the guitar shape is Hideous.

 

[Mathemagician]

Finally a decent image of the inlay. I was wondering wtf it was supposed to be.

The video is from 2012, so anyone thinking that tribal Vs for Kerry King by Dean may never happen, think again. They already did it and mixed a razorback for good measure! Anyways, good for Kerry King for finding a new money maker and showing his aboriginal heritage through his tribal schemes, do not hate the native culture. After they are done with the Nails/inverted cross graphic models the tribal is incoming for sure.

Still searching for a KKW 7 with a Kahler, that is not ridiculously priced though.

 

[Chokey Chicken]

I'm sure they'll sell at least a good chunk of them. I'm sure that they'll make a pretty massive profit too. Probably only need to sell a few to start turning a profit.

KK is such a big name whose most diehard fans are at a point in life where they can kind of justify the cost. I'd never buy one, but I don't really like his music and hold no nostalgia for slayer/kk so I'm not the target anyway.

It's not a KKW7 import and it doesn't have a Kahler but did you ever see that U.S. custom shop, 7 string Wartribe B.C. Rich made? That thing is crazy.

 

[Mathemagician]

I mean if they made a crackle V...... they’d still have to use one of their less popular headstocks to entice me. Slayer fans seem in for a treat though.

 

[aesthyrian]

...

And basically stole undertaker’s logo. Stolen from facebook

LMAO I know Kerry is a big wrestling fan.. but my god that's so obvious.

for shits and giggles:

Alright get the rumour mill started

I wonder if that's actually a Jeff Waters signature. In a video from a couple months back he said he had a Gibson prototype in the works and possibly an Epiphone again as well.

Yeah , I saw it, it is on Reverb for some time now. I do not remember seeing a custom made KKW with a Kahler. He also had a flame graphic one with a 7 string Floyd too in the catalogue of 2004. Unlikely that we will see a KKV 7 string from Dean, I am curious to see what they would produce though.

 

[RockMixer]

Things I like:
Inlays
Ebony Board
Headstock
LED Side Dots
Trem is ok
Over all pretty cool

Things I dont like:
Price $8,866.00 (Yep, you read that correct!)
Why? Greed comes to mind.

 

[ArtDecade]

Surprised you were able to make such a long list of things that you liked about that disaster.

 

[thraxil]

Looks like it should be sold at Hot Topic.
