I haven't seen that before. Anyway, for the money why not just buy a PC1? Doesn't even have a Sustainer so you'd think that would trim off a considerable amount of $ compared to a Jackson.
Oh well, Dean makes nothing that can compare to USA Jacksons anyway

[neilli]

Not sure why anyone would buy that over a PC1, other than possibly because of the neck profile...

[toejam]

How is Vinnie Moore's signature model a rip-off? It's only 22 frets and doesn't have the sustainer.

[rjohnstone]

Looks nothing like a PC1.
Kinda fugly if you ask me.

[Shibs]

That's not even close to a PC1...

[VitaminG]

what is PC1-like about that? The pretty top? A super strat with a quilt top with Floyd & gold hardware does not a PC1 copy make. It could just easily be considered a Tom Anderson or Suhr rip-off.

I can see Phil getting his gay on, changing over to Dean, and playing this heap in a "Girl" reunion tour.

not even close... PC1 owns

[Snoogans]

Sweet!
Is that the new Dean "Dime never played a Superstrat, but if he had it would probably have looked like this" signature model?

[SpiralArchitect]

Yeah, but dime did play a super strat!





I can't wait for next year, Dean is unveiling the new Dime 8 string bass and 14 string chapman stick! with lightning bolt graphic and all!

Anyone else notice that the bridge p/up mounting ring is slightly crooked?

[nhspike]

is that a neck thru?

[Brian]

Looks more like an ESP Mirage than a PC1 to me.




Dunno who ESP ripped the shape off of though...
