Description
From Our Catalog
Michael Batio, that name makes many a shredder tremble. Name one guitarist who has set the world athunder with the prowess of his skill just recently? Michael Batio. Playing with his unique double-guitar he can play both lead, rhythms, double solos and intertwine all this on the same guitar at the same time with two hands. A feat to behold where one man's playing can outdo two! No wonder, Dean also later on created a Quad model featuring 4 guitars! for the player who can't even be contained by two guitars. The MAB1 model by Dean, creators of his distinct Double-Guitar and Quad-Guitar have kept his unique attention to quality in the creation of his single body model.

The MAB1 features a lightweight Alder body to combat playing fatigue. Other features include a Michael Batio spec'ed maple neck (exactly like he plays!), ebony fingerboard, Grover tuners, and three EMG pickups (EMG-81, 85 and SA pickups). Not to be outdone this guitar is equipped with a Floyd Rose licensed bridge for extreme whammy techniques and with Batio's own chosen Armoflame graphic finish.
Michael Batio has some serious shredding skills, and this is his axe of choice! The lightweight Alder body reduces fatigue for hours of fast-fingered pyrotechnics, and the Maple neck is meets MAB's exact specifications. Three EMG pickups (81/SA/85) deliver tone too sick for words, and the licensed Floyd Rose bridge is all about the Whammy. He hand-picked the Armorflame graphics and hand-signs every axe! Includes case.

"It's a Beast."
Desirability:
I would passionately love on this guitar.

Overall:
This guitar is blissful. The sound quality is an A+ times infinity, The overall build of this guitar was comfortable. The neck has made my techniques much easier to execute...The pick-ups...oh, the pick-ups. Two EMGs and the legendary signature Hands without Shadows...MAB has inspired me to move on in my playing to assume a position as a shredder...Hopefully, when I get this...I'll have some idea and means to be a close pal to Rusty Cooley and MAB...This guitar sounds F****** wicked, and if u plug this into your line 6 or whatever, the sound will throw you for a loop. If you're etchy on getting this...Don't be scared. It won't disappoint and guitarist. No matter your style, this guitar deserves your love and respect. I leave this area with this....This guitar...deserves it own religion.
