I am a huge fan of Michael Ammott and his playing, he is one of my main influences but his dean signatures disappoint me...I don't think they look good but I want to hear his signature pickup!! (and I will next week in the Dean Booth of the Musikmesse Frankfurt (European Namm)

sooo...he has been to all FOUR continents? Excuse me, but last time I checked there were 7
Or maybe he meant "tourable" continents?... I`ve not seen many gigs from the Antartica or Africa

"If you play a Dean you should represent." Too bad those headstocks are HIDEOUS XP!!

Nah, I've got no beef with Dean.

Heh, same thing here. I don't like the headstock and a think you can get better guitars for your money. But obviously there are people who seem to like them.

I imagine South Africa is skipped due to lack of metal interest... or even just the lessest (? - 'most less' sounds wrong) interest.

Michael Amott is really great! But his Dean guitars kinda sucks, headstock is truly bad.. But inlays is very cool though:)
his ESP`s were much better.

Guitars look really cool , but I was never fan of signature stuff so it doesn't surprise me that guitars are not that good actually.

Posted by: Ivan Milenkovic Mar 27 2009, 04:59 PM

Cool talk by Mike, he is marketing them nicely
It's all about business with these guitar, they are for fans, and definitely not the same quality as he plays

Posted by: Frederik Mar 27 2009, 05:10 PM

Hehe all four continents
He must have been have practiced guitar too much

I really like the headstocks because they are something diffrent and stand out but his V's are just very boring...

Posted by: Aleksander Sukovic Mar 27 2009, 06:58 PM

Very cool looking guitars!

Posted by: 29a Mar 27 2009, 07:34 PM

The girl looks better than the guitars. Her voice is messed up though.

I'd agree there's not much in the signature range that holds much interest for me. Wait.. there's one exception. I'd love a Satriani Chrome Boy

Cynical and so true!

Nice looking guitars !

I like the classic Dean V headstocks too. On a V that just looks right. To me anyway.

I dont care for Mustaine's Dean headstock.

I've never played a Dean.... Or his ESP Ninja that he had.....

He is a brutal guitar player though. Thats for sure.

His brothers signature Caparison is badass too!

Posted by: Artemus Mar 27 2009, 10:42 PM

Oh yes. Caparison's are nice.. and pricey
