IÆve had the dean from hell for about half a year now, and all I can say is wow. the only time it will ever go out of tune when you lock it is when a string breaks, and it's only done that to me once before. The pickups sound great. When playing with distortion I use the Bill Lawrence and only it, and when I play it on clean I switch to both pickups to get a cleaner sound. Harmonics are made easy on this guitar, and pretty much anything else. If you pick one of these up and play it, it makes you sound like a better guitarist than you were before.

Just a great guitar. It's got an amazingly fast neck, and a killer paint job. The pickups are pretty good...not amazing, but you won't be disappointed either. This is a VERY metal guitar. You'll pretty much only get nice super-clean and super-dirty sounds out of this one. Well-balanced, and its much lighter than you would think by just looking at it. also, very comfortable to play while sitting down. Worth every penny, and then some.

This guitar is nothing short of incredible. The minute i opened the case i was blown away. From the stunnig shape to the paint job from the heavens, this guitar has it all. I was using an epiphone before i bought this. Im not an entry level guitar player and when i bought this i felt like a pro. The sound you get out of this monster is like playing with Dime at your side. It can do anything and everything you want. From clean to flat out dirty it can do anything. i love this guitar
