Have you tried one? cos i just did and it totally blew me away, way better than any jacksons i've tried and i have one, japan.

market survey ?

i agree with freakfingers

Jackson is much cheaper than Dean lah ...so you gotta put the price factor in ..

Even tho i dislike the new Jacksons..i would say , paying RM2200 for a jap made , alder body , sharktooth inlays , Seymour duncan combo , licensed floyd , matching headstock , good hardware ...is pretty value for money...more worth it than getting a RM3000 Korean Dean ..

ok i get your point.. but let me make another one smile.gif i know alot of people judge guitars by its specs and deans have inferior specs compared to brands like jacksons and esp's. But comparing the high end guitars of the mentioned brands that i've tried (rr5,sv), it didnt leave as big an impression compared to dean, and this is just a 79ml which is bout 3k. Tone wise, sustain, feel i think it's on par and better than the 5 - 7 k jacksons and esps. But have you guys tried one? what did you think of the sound and playability? thanks for feedback

so basically you are saying that...

Dean ML 79' > Jackson MIA Soloist , Jackson RR1 , ESP Eclipse , and everything 5-7k Jackson & ESP ?

i have tried a Dean ML 79' before ..and ..its really tempting to start a debate with you..

but ..everybody is entitle with their own opinions..so its ok smile.gif mind to post some pics of your deans on flash us ?

well..i will put Korean Dean on par with Korean Schecter ..in terms of construction and quality ...which is quite fair ..Schecters are awesome too..

but for me i still think that Jackson USA are far more superior than a Korean Dean .. smile.gif

anyway , wish your friend all the best in his Dean dealer thing..
Dean , washburn , BC RICH , Schecter...you need guts to play buyandsell with this brands in Malaysia and Singapore ..respect .

gapnap  - thanks for the advice man, I never tried a US jackson myself so I'll take your word for it, but then again I'd bet my money on a US dean smile.gif. how much does a US jackson go for anyway?
