Cool Dean 8 string guitars

Jim Antonio · 01-12-2012, 08:05 PM

Oohh, GAS, how can you be so insensitive to a man's wallet?

ittoa666 · 01-12-2012, 08:10 PM

Those look fake as hell.

2012 Models Coming Soon! - GearHounds

They're going to be released in March and April though...

misingonestring · 01-12-2012, 08:20 PM

The ML doesn't look right with more than 6 strings IMO

Hemi-Powered Drone · 01-12-2012, 08:23 PM

They just had to make an ML with a larger headstock.

Eric Christian · 01-12-2012, 08:44 PM

The Rusty Cooley RC7X Wraith looks pretty swank as well.

brutalwizard · 01-12-2012, 08:59 PM

i would play the ml, but not over an ibanez or possibly a carvin at the same price haha

Grand Moff Tim · 01-12-2012, 09:11 PM

Huh. I think 8 strings actually kinda suit the ML.

Stealthdjentstic · 01-12-2012, 09:13 PM

The ML looks gross no matter what

Razzy · 01-12-2012, 09:21 PM

The headstock on the superstrat is ....ing hilariously big.

Philligan · 01-12-2012, 10:22 PM

The string spacing on the ML looks ridiculously tight, look at the nut, and how much clearance is on either side of the pickups.

And those giant headstocks

Valennic · 01-12-2012, 10:26 PM

Christ, the headstock on the ML is the size of the body O_o

Hollowway · 01-12-2012, 11:16 PM

Yeah I'd be hard pressed to design a worse HS for those. Shame. The guitars themselves look decent.

MaxOfMetal · 01-12-2012, 11:20 PM

I think "cool" is a very strong word here.

Hey, it's more 8s, why not?

I usually agree with you because competition is always a good thing for the buyer.

Except where it's so ugly it makes me want to decapitate a puppy eat my hands.

s_k_mullins · 01-12-2012, 11:46 PM

"Cool" was definitely not the right word for these.

ticklemeasian · 01-12-2012, 11:55 PM

i just sold my soul to satan and offered him my first child for the white rc7

Seventary · 01-13-2012, 02:45 AM

Looks like a lot of string rubbing on the headstock of the ML. Other than that it's metal as hell but not too sure about the quality of Dean guitars.

celticelk · 01-13-2012, 06:39 AM

Scale? If that superstrat is a Cooley model, I presume it's 25.5.

Solodini · 01-13-2012, 06:58 AM

For the money, I'd say the ML is probably worth it.

Its 26.5" according to the Dean NAMM 2012 Catalog

Sicarius · 01-13-2012, 10:16 AM

The only thing I took away from all of that were new Zeros.

and ESP Horizons being more expensive than they should be..

nightflameauto · 01-13-2012, 10:21 AM

I love the Dean ML body. It's perfect for sitting classical style or tossing over a knee like a strat. But that headstock was horrible enough with only six strings. I hate the way it wide-pulls the strings off the nut. You'd almost need to have super-strength nut material to keep it from pulling apart in the center with eight heavy gauge strings up there. If they could put a more straight pull stock, or even a Gibson triangle type stock on it, it might be the perfect guitar.

-42- · 01-13-2012, 11:53 AM

Those seem better suited to use on baby seals than use on stage.

vampiregenocide · 01-13-2012, 01:42 PM

Those look like they will both be very neck heavy indeed.
