The Dean ML design is a hybrid between Gibson's Explorer and Flying V models. I've never been too struck by the shape of it until I saw this original American-made Dean ML bass from 1981. I guess some designs work better on a bass than on a guitar (and vice versa). Note the ubiquitous (for the period) DiMarzio pickups. This is a bass that makes quite a statement; I wish I was rock'n'roll enough to be able to carry off something like this!
Currently listed on eBay with a Buy It Now price of US $1,349. (Note, headstock has been repaired).

- Dean Psychobilly "picasso" (actually They Meant Matisse But Hey, They're Just American Guitar Makers!)
guitarz.blogspot.com I'm usually not a fan of custom paint job but sometimes something stands out of the lot, like this Dean Psychobilly Picasso - one of three models of the short lived mid-2000s Psychobilly series. I like how the classic full hollow-body...
