"I'm considering selling a lot my other guitars and replacing them with Razorbacks!!"
Feature:
I wasn't happy with the screw on bar for the tremolo, but I've gotten used to it. It can always be replaced. No big deal. The thing works as good as any liscenced Floyd I've used.
Quality:
a 9 only because it was said to be American made and there was a "made in china" sticker on the back of the headstock.
Value:
Any guitar in this price range should be good. The price is perfect for this guitar, especially given the fact that the lead pickup and traction knobs are upgrades.
Desirability:
I want another!
Sound:
I've been playing electric guitar for 22 years and I finally got around to getting a Dean? In the past I've been using ESP and Ibanez guitar as well as a trusty Jackson primarily used only if a strings breaks on stage. When I played the Razorback through my main rig, I found it really interesting at what seems to be a wider range of tonal quality in general. Everything sounds richer, crisp and articulate. The SH-13 aka DIMEBUCKER pickup is a lot like the EMG-81's I've used forever. The SH-13 is as HOT a pickup as the EMG-81 with different tonal characteritics. Great Sound all around...
Ease of Use:
Of all the guitars I have, this one is the easiest to actually play standing up OR sitting for that matter. Every part of the neck seems to be more accessible than anythinng I've played. And, I'm not just talking about the 22nd fret. The whole neck will surprise you. Maybe it's because I'm 6'3" but the thing just fits better. Now my other guitars feel like putting on clothes that are too small!!!! By the way, the shape lends itself to playing and manuvering the guitar with ease. You'll find yourself using your leg a lot to manipulate the position of the guitar and it's very refreshing to have that ability.
Support:
Haven't needed it.
Overall:
I've already considered selling most of my other guitars and replacing them with Razorbacks and Dean ML guitars. The body is more than a radical shape. Much more.

"Metals Greatest Axe of All Time Has Arrived"
Feature:
The DimeBucker is great it could out wail a Banshee, the Floyd Rose tremelo is good, but a feature I like is the Dime traction knobs which allow me to adjust tone and volume easier when on a poorly lit stage
Quality:
The thing is a Dean made right here in America, and if you have something to keep it in you don't have to worry about it getting all chipped up
Value:
Unlike Gibson models you get what you pay for with Dean guitars, this thing is also cooler than any Gibson I've ever seen and that has to count for something.
Desirability:
This guitar is the single coolest instrument I've ever seen, It also comes in three different finishes which means you get a choice of what you want, and lastly you look so awesome with one of these it's crazy
Sound:
The only way the Heavy metal sound of this guitar could possibly get any better is if you put EMGs in it and it wouldn't even make much of a difference
Support:
Haven't needed it
Overall:
From great playability, to absolutely screaming pickups, and the coolest look anywhere this guitar is incredible there is no comparison this is the ultimate Metal guitar and with it maybe I'll be the next guitar legend.
