New Dean Vs

[straycat]

I played a new MIK neck thru Dean V today.White with black binding 1 hum strung thru the body (v tail piece).Man what a nice guitar, fit and finish was perfect.Pearl block fret inlays and a dark rosewood board.These are a reissue of the 79s.I remember Nancy Wilson playing one with a Kahler back in the day.I told the dealer if it had a Kahler I'd be all over it.He,He.

Is there a new V? The '79 Vs were only set neck IIRC.

These are new neck thrus. Mahogony body and neck fully bound and very very nicely made.I could have walked out with it for $550.00 I was tempted.I'll go check the dean site.

The Dean site says set necks sho' nuf.
It is called the white gold V

I like the way it looks. White with matching H/S is classic.

looks hot, dunno if it could beat my dean select v tho - that guitar is hotter than hell

I prefer the black gold over the white

Same here. The white still looks pretty sweet, though.

it might just be me but i always think that single hums make the v body look smaller for some reason, the single hum just really sticks out and appears larger, maybe its just one of those optical illusions....

These are great guitars. I've got one of the DOA (Dean Owners of America) V's from last year. Same basic guitar. Fantastic player. I also have an older ML Select that is even better. I think it's the thicker body on the Selects that I like...more substantial feeling.

I did notice now that you mentioned it the white gold V's body was thicker than the Chinese Dime model ML.I had an 81 blueburst V and the white gold V has the same body thickness just doesn't have the V neck profile.Its so damn cool I will most likely go get it.

How much are they going for?
