Description
What makes this guitar special? This guitar is number 40 in an extremely limited run of only 100 and is signed by Dean Z himself. It features a ton of deluxe appointments in everything from gold hardware and marvelously colored abalone inlays to gorgeous flame maple and binding from head to toe. The natural maple figuring looks fantastic under the burst finish and adds a ton of character in the body to match the top notch abalone inlays in the ebony fingerboard. The pickups sound great all positions and between the three, provide a good range of meaty humbucker tones. In addition, this guitar is very clean, was well taken care of and we’ve given it an awesome setup, so don’t miss your chance to give this rare bird a home.
