I'm torn!!!!!!!!!!

cheers guys

[ozzuk1]

I'd go for the KVX10 as it's likely to be a nice guitar, it also has a neck pickup...

Plus i've not heargreat things about the chinese made deans like people liking the japanese jacksons...

[timstar5150]

I actually really want a one hum V, jackson dont do one.

I'm compromising a bit. Not sure about the pickups on both of these guitars.

Is that Dean really Chinese?

[shobet]

Play both and then whichever feels the best to you go for that one.

[timstar5150]

well neither are in the UK and dont look likely to ever be! LOL (unless i get one). Im just asking if anyone has one and tried one.

[Sunbane]

I'd also be torn, if it wasn't for that Dean being so damn fugly. I'd easilly pick the Jackson on looks alone.

How much does the Dean cost?

[Larz]

24 frets got to be better than 22, right?

[markD]

personally, i prefer the dean.

[Joe_Steeler]

Personally, I would go for either if I decided to go bear hunting.

+1, assuming the quality of each is comparable. Sorry, don't know much about Deans. I prefer the roundhorn style V but, IMHO, the Dean headstock is horrid. Plus the Jackson has 2 hums.

Nope. Just different preferences.

[wilkinsi]

I'd go for the Jackson, not that I'm biased, but that dean looks blunt and ghey.

[dangerous_dave]

I hate that Dean (looks wise) but I'm fairly sure it would be a solid player, it's a Korean one unlike what people have told you.



If you like thin necks don't get the Dean.




But I really do think that dean looks like crap.

[zeegler]

The Dean is a set-neck. That pretty much clinches it for me.

Check out the rr24, one hum, and unlike the dean, looks cool too.

[dangerous_dave]

That deEn looks like shit!
