The "NAMM 2021" Thread

When I was a broke teenager, Dean was the only way for me to acquire multiple unnecessary guitars. I loved the company for that. Granted, that was forever long ago in a land far far away once upon a time...

Dean is the only way I get the guitar I want, although I'm dying for another company to do it.

It's official. Gibson has acquired Mesa.

Fuckin A. Why do i have a feeling the Badlander is going to be discontinued in 2 years and become a coveted collector’s amp after Gibson discontinues it to focus on streamlining to strictly legacy products like the Mark and Recto?

Boogie discontinues new amps constantly anyway. I'm surprised we've had the TC this long already.

My god the Dean countdown flubbed again and is now gone. Guess the web designer is the same guy responsible for QC there...

Not at over 2K for imports. Eww

 

[jco5055]

Has anyone ever even played Dean USA models? I have a sour taste from trying their more standard stuff over the years, but I've heard good stuff about USA.

They have to put those bulk orders from Kahler on something. Why not go nuts?

Currently people are already paying $1,500+ for imports - Schecter KM7’s, strandbergs, Abasi’s.

If they were the first one to do it people could discount it, now it’s more “Why not? It might stick.”

 

[DrakkarTyrannis]

OMG! NEW DEANS! Sweet! I can't wait to not buy any of that!

 

[MASS DEFECT]

It's official.

 

[bostjan]

Why do all of Dean's burled tops have 100% of their figuring in the same place? It's like if the bridge pickup were the lips of the guitar, they all have nasty sores.

... please leave the Gibson/Mesa subjects to the other thread...

@bostjan those images might be hyper realistic computer generated and not really photography... the 7 and 8 stringers Kahler loaded MLs look exactly the same with maybe a difference in saturation/contrast photo treatment...
