The Dean Explosion Razorback is an electric guitar that has high impact looks and puts out concussive licks. A super-snug set neck joint joins the mahogany neck and body for supreme resonance that works with the Dimebucker pickup at the bridge to produce astounding sustain with knife-edge bite. Killer explosion graphics are complemented by a bound rosewood fretboard and black hardware, including a double-locking Floyd Rose-licensed trem.

FBD Dimebag Tribute ML Left Handed Guitar

A perfect replica of the ML Dime played most in his early days (alongside The Dean From Hell ML), this special tribute edition ML features the Dimebag Tribute crest on the classic V headstock and a Dimebag Quad sticker on the body as special touches. The Vintage Brazilliaburst finish covers a flamed maple top over an all-mahogany body and neck. The set neck is fast and sleek, topped by a rosewood fretboard. The raging sonics are all there, too, courtesy of two sizzling humbuckers (with the infamous Seymour Duncan Dimebucker at the bridge) and a Floyd Rose-licensed tremolo. A framing-quality Dimebag Tribute photo is also included.

MLX Left Handed Guitar

Dean MLX Left Handed Electric GuitarThe ML was created by Dean Zelinsky in 1977 to be the guitar with ultimate sustain and tone. Created with the Dean concept of spreading the mass of the body over a large area, the MLX electric guitar has something more. Dean believes radical string angles add to the resonance that helps a guitar become more alive. The distinctive headstock creates extra long string length, giving the ML a sound like no other guitar! Played by many of rock’s elite over the past two decades, the ML has appeared in award winning videos, on stage and album covers, and more importantly, on some of rock’s finest recordings. With a light, basswood body, Grover tuners and a Tune-o-matic-style bridge, you can’t go wrong with the Dean MLX!

The EVO also features a neck joined at the body with Dean’s exclusive angular neck joint. This neck joint was specially designed for complete access to upper frets and ultimate resonance.

The Razorback Explosion is an excellent guitar with great sound, the Seymour Duncan at the bridge really roars, the Floyd Rose takes a lot to get used to, but don't be afraid just keep adjusting and tuning, once set up it is worth it, awesome bends, it is a big heavy guitar with long sharp points which means it is not for confined spaces.

I've never tried one myself Wayne, Dean aren't widely available here in the UK. I do love the look of the Razorback but I don't think i'm quite cool enough to pull it off! :)

I haven't tried one, but if you haven't already done so, check out the user reviews over at Harmony Central http://www.harmonycentral.com/products/45862

If you don't get on with the pickups you can always change them out :)
