    After years of playing 11's, I recently backed down to 9's, and I have to say I really prefer the lighter gauge sets. Aside from the obvious playability difference, there seems to be more string to string note separation, and a bit more harmonic consonance, perhaps due to an increased ease of achieving better intonation.

    • @guitarandgames1386
      @guitarandgames1386 4 года назад

    A Les Paul fan in our small town said that the white Thoroughbred X we had in stock ... just $299, played better than a $10,000 Les Paul he owned. I have to take him at his word!

    • @joeblough261
      @joeblough261 2 года назад

      Sounds like dude needs a pro setup on that Gibson or unless it's an Epiphone. But really, it took me 20 years to really appreciate the value of having a guitar setup. I bought some expensive guitars that seemingly played well out of the box so I didn't set them up. But I couldn't figure out why I kept going back to my $500 Schecter when it came to the best playability...but I had that one setup right when I bought it. After the setups my more expensive ones played way better than they did prior.

  • @budDG9298
    @budDG9298 4 года назад +2

    Own 4 Dean's and I love all of them. Never had any issues with them feeling "dead" but if I had to complain about something it would be the Dean branded DMT pickups and their stock tuners. Never had any real tuning stability issues, they just felt kind of light and cheap. The pickups were just fine in the clean tones and pretty decent if you threw a little dirt at them, but if you really pushed them they got muddy fast. Swapped out to Grover tuners on all of them and eventually some new Seymour Duncan pickups and they play and sound great.
    To be fair, my stock Jackson, Epiphone and Washburn pickups felt the same way too. All of them got changed. Oddly the only guitars I haven't swapped pickups on are all three Greg Bennett's and they have Duncan Designed pickups which sound oddly good
    Otherwise the fit and finish, for me at least, has always been really good. They required minimal setup when I bought them. I guess I've been lucky that the frets were always smooth, the nuts were cut well and the other stock components like the bridges and pots were really nice. I like the neck profiles and all of them have a satin finish on the neck which is nice to play.

    @curtislitchfield1378 4 года назад +2

    Always been a Dean fan, but I haven't held a guitar newer than about 2004. I really do wish they'd bring back the EVO and Soltero. The good EVOs (like the select line) had the best neck heel on a LP-alike I've ever used. This Thoroughbred thing gives me some of those old school turn-of-the-century Dean vibes. I still have my EVO Noir, and I know a guy who has like 5 of them, even the Dragster, which is about as Kyle as you can get, but still amazing guitars.
    And I don't care who you are. The Cadillac is F'n Sweet. You know you like it.

  • @CameySaurusRex
    @CameySaurusRex 4 года назад +2

    I've had a big gripe for a long while about Tune-o-Matic equipped guitars let alone ones with a break angle on the headstock of at least 12-ish degrees or more. I hate that everyone leaves the stoptail piece bolted down even though it IS adjustable for a reason but also, I just loathe that horrible break angle. It puts so much stress on the strings & hell, even among a few other headstock shapes, the tuner placement makes them veer off diagonally & adds even more tension & no matter how "in-tune" you think it may be, I just don't think it's an acceptable method to purposely make strings be uneven like that. Those design cues are why I prefer Fender & even the Yamaha SGV guitars because those models make the strings almost perfectly straight. Also love PRS stuff because of their badass & perfectly engineered wraparound bridge as well as the evenly spaced tuners due to the headstock shape. 😍

    Actually the first Deam guitar I've liked the look of aesthetically. And the Duncan pick ups definitely make it even more enticing. I'd at least compare it to an esp 1000 as that's my standard for single cuts.

    "For several decades, Dean has been synonymous with the ML style guitars."
    Whenever I think of Dean, I think of the ML, Razorbacks, Dave Mustaine V, and that Dave Mustaine Explorer. Any time I see anything else, I need to remind myself that Dean makes something other than Dimebag or Dave Mustaine stuff. Dimebag and Dave Mustaine, that is what Dean is to me.

      Yeah, this might be the only headstock of theirs that I like. The headstock on this Thoroughbred would look great on the Cadi guitars too.
      I love a lot of their (classic styled) V guitars, but don't like the headstock that's also a V shape. I would like to see some of these V's with a more traditionally inspired V headstock shape. As close as they can get without Gibson coming after them at least.

      @@freezingCode Im the other way around, i think the optimal headstock for a classic V is a V headstock like Dean´s, i have been playing classic shaped Dean V´s for pretty much exclusively for almost 15 years now. It may not fit some other guitars that well though.

    Well I've been using some Dean guitars for several years and never regret it! They plays awesome! Try a VMNT once and compare it to the Jackson Mustaine used in the 80's and 90's and you'll see how incredible the VMNT is. The neck is awesome! Same with my MLs same with the Eric Peterson V Skull that is perfect for Thrash with its EMG pickups and that gorgeous graphic.. seriously, Dean is way more than just Dimebag's original guitar brand.. and even for that, we deserve a lot from these guys! looks at the chicago series models for example with super distortion pickups, it's an incredible serie! Just perfect for most of the rock standards. This Thoroughbred and the Soltero are perfect for something more modern. But really, most of what they propose is fantastic.

Granted this was 20 years ago but those 3 guitars left a bad taste in my mouth and I’ve avoided Dean guitars since then. However I’d reconsider if the circumstances were right. Good work, Ryan.

      I’ve had a Dean V and still have a Dean Cadillac. They’re great guitars.

      To be honest, Dean has built that body style long before the lawsuit as well as many other companies like PRS, ESP.. etc.. The Thoroughbred was not part of the lawsuit and G hasn't filed any lawsuits that I know of on the single cut away type guitars since they lost their case in the Supreme Court with PRS.
