Little heads up, im not bashing Dean. And I gave the big picture warning so dial-up users don't fry their brains waiting for crap to load

"The dip" - The last fret, weither it be 22 or 24 is always sunken into the guitar, not above or anything.







"Unintentional roundies" - All edges are rounded. Theres no truely flat-out pointy guitars.
I'll be honest, this one is a bit more tough to capture. The best way to tell would be either in person or compairing guitars.

wouldnt mind having the RBV or the CBV tho

mm, personally I wouldn't touch that 24 fret RBV but I loooveee the razorback Vs and I'd take up a 22 fret RBV any day! I'd think about a CBV too, but I'm not a trivium fan and when I saw how every edge was rounded like that, a part of me kinda died.

Edit for some sweet, sweet razorback love. Oh how you make me wish my pockets were filled with money, even if you are right-handed.


My 2 favs-


Oh, but of course I'm a BC Rich man personally. I'm hoping to save my pennies for a long time and get a custom done, beast body with their pointy 6 on one side headstock and OFR on it. Lefty of course.. Long time from now

I thought the no pointy edges thing was because someone tried to kill something or someone else with their guitar........that's what i heard.

Wait what? haha

I'm pretty sure there have been murder attempts with every single kind of guitar. Except DBZ. You wouldn't want to get yucky blood all over it

truth. with the REALLY pointy ones like a stealth or something like that, you could do some terrible damage to a person.

True but to be practical an actual knife and many other objects can do much more damage than a pointy guitar

More truth. I guess that story was fake then, seeing as Dean Z. hasn't gotten sued.

Just tape a knife to your guitar. Problem solved

The guitar bayonet. I like it!

Hahaha, took the words right outta my mouth.

Good one xD
Speaking of a killer axe... hehe

I fixed the sunken last fret on my current ML project:

Interesting how the 24th fret access on the Stealth is much, much better than on the V's.

not to mention the hard edge on the Soltero's and hardtails that kill your arm.

I been trying to tell everyone its hard to reach high frets on most V body

the stealth is 22 frets :-/

unless you are totally metal...

and blacker than the blackest black times infinity *dethklok*

Dude, that is an AWESOME body shape! It's almost like a classic Dean ML got freaky with a Jackson King V! It's pointy, like the Dean Razorback, but not over-done-- still clean and elegant, in a Succubus-in-a-black-dress sort of way...

MOAR!

You mean.... It's a stealth



Hahaha

Yep, that be a stealth...never noticed the sunken fret 'till you pointed it out.

I'm not sure I get the point of all this?

*checks guitars

Nope. No sunken fret on me USA ML or my Premier Cavallo. So why post this here?

I really like the stealth! Are they still selling the model?
