Wow you dug out an old thread (2007!)

Yes they are out NOW and like all Dean guitars: The USA made models are great but too expensive and the Korean made models are not worth the money...

For 1300 Euros you get a factory made guitar from South Korea while most other companies offer partly Hand built in the USA or Japan for that money! The Hardware is good, as you could expect for that price, Original Floyd Rose and EMG active Pickups. The case however is pretty cheap and not sturdy at all, it wont last long on the road. The craphics look cool but they are only printed on and look very bad from close (you can see the Pixels!!!)
The wood and built quality would be OK for a below 1K Euro guitar but not for a 1300 Euro guitar.
Any 1K Gibson, Jackson, Ibanez or ESP guitar blow the Deans out of the water in terms of wood quality and craftsmanship!!!

Alternatives:
For arround 1000 Euros you can get an ESP ltd Horizon Floyd Rose which AT LEAST as good as this Dean, if not better. If you spend 300 more on a Japanese Made Original ESP Horizon you get a guitar more than twice as good with thea similiar specs!

I'm afraid not, but you could install LED's all around the edges!!!!
