Sound: This is perhaps the best sounding (plugged in) e/a I have ever played. the shadow pickup is truely outstanding. The tone is not greatly effected by the cutaway as is the case in many guitars. In the price range, nothing even comes close. Quality: I got the natural finish. The wood is nice and the inlay both on body and neck is awesome. Value: As I said above, nothing even comes close in this price range. The Wow Factor: I think its the sharpest guitar available under $1000. Overall: Ive had mine for a couple of years and have been offered my money back for it a dozen times. Ive been offered a trade for MUCH more expensive guitars but I think I'll keep it.

Quality: used on a contant basis....but, better when stored correctly in case! stays alot truer! Manufacturer Support: never had any issues! Overall: meets all goals! this is my primary guitar!!!! fits all my needs!!! and plays like a dream!!!!!

SPOTLIGHT REVIEW

Sound: The sound on this guitar is excellent, when amplified I can go from quiet background then crank the electronics and get a (believe it or not) distorted sound. The tone is very good across the spectrum. Feature: Electronics great! Finish holds up well despite no pick guard. Only complaint would be one tuning peg is touchy. Quality: I have owned several 12 strings and 6 string accoustics, and the Dean outshines all of them. Like many said the abalone is something normally seen on more expensive models. Value: Definitely worth what they are asking for it. If you always wanted a 12 string, now is the time to get one. Overall: Have had this for 2 years now and have never had a problem. The finish looks like new, electronics work great. Definitely would buy one again without hesitation. It holds its own on stage and off.
