So now that the guitars are getting ready to ship out and after what looked like an amazing Namm show, do you have any plans of creating something like DOA ? If not a DOA type thing how about a street team?

The street team is very likely to just consist of the forum members anyway, aha!

street team idea was posted by yours truly a few (5) months ago

but now that we are close to release we need to get on the ball.......

+1 ill be up for a steet team/ DBZOA

May I ask what a DOA is?

Dean Owners of America... but we're not all Americans... so the name kind'a sucks.

DBZOW?

W = World

yeh lets change it to DBZ OWNER ASSOCIATION ... IF I COULD SPELL

DBZOU U=Universe

DOA was an obvious play on Dead on Arrival, ect.

So why not make something of the sort?

(DEAD - DBZ experts and dealers)

Sounds good to me. I move for having a congress and senate though and Dean Z. can be president - or at least our version of Cincinnatus.

Dean Owners Association?

He's not saying that......

..I think

I don't live in the US of A and I've owned many types of Dean guitars over the past 9 years. And I intend on owning some DBZ Cavallo's as well. So I think we can drop the 'America' tag and go with Association or World or something a little more global.

I had something in mind with my idea, a couple things actually. If everyone could be patient for about .. A week, or two? I'll have something to show

Woaah. If we have to wait a week or two just for a name, it's gonna be a badass name

dont hurt yourself thinking .. we dont want brain all over the forum...

Yeah and I just got back from Brain Addiction Rehab
THE URGE

Don't think... It just slows you down.

Cheers!

Ok, so it seems this topic took a detour.

It doesn't matter what we call it. What does matter is the fact that we all will (would like to) own and support DBZ guitars.

DOA saw great success and I feel that a renovated version would do better. For me the most important thing about a DOA type club is the incorporation of the player's perspective and ideas into the creation process. Dean himself has always listened to us; with a club like DOA it would give us a way to unify and voice our opinions in a more concise and effective manner.

Hell, even if Dean doesn't support it we could always still have a "yearly meet-up"

Pay for my flights and accommodation, then sure !
