I have the red Dean V that looks like the one Randy Rhoads played in around 1981 , when Sharon took his dot V so he couldn't have it for the Quiet Riot reunion! And that is that!
@@aarongrimes6490 because Randy was in Ozzy's band and she didn't want Randy playing in other bands, especially his old one I guess? So she figured taking his V would make it .........? I really don't know. Because he still had his Les Paul Randy under contract, and he played 2 sold-out shows without telling Sharon or Ozzy, that is about it! Anyway, someone, rumor was that Dean made sure that Randy had that guitar to play at the last show, so the pictures you see on the internet are from that show. Just something I thought I would throw in there since he was working with Dean V.! I knew Randy, but I never asked him about the guitar, but he did say he should have said something to someone before doing the shows. Taking one of his guitars was just a way of letting him know he isn't free to do shows with other bands when playing with Ozzy!
Yep !! We want more "My Guitars" section !! (... despite being a long time follower of the channel, I know a lot of yours, but I'm sure you have lots others cool ones we want to see !!)
I have a Korean made one that I changed the bridge pickup to a boutique inspired by Bill Lawrence l500, really well crafted instrument and very inexpensive!
I have the 7 string version of this guitar. I have wanted a V Select from Dean since I saw one in Macaris guitar shop in London back in the 1990s. I bought the 7 string one on pre order and Dean took another 11 months to deliver it. you simply cannot fault the necks on Dean guitars. I think that's one of the reasons Dimebag was such a fan of the ML.
I have this guitar and love it. Switched all the hardware out for gold and put locking gold grovers on it. Took the duncan's out and put burstbuckers in it, a graphite nut, and a string butler. Guitar freaking rocks.
Man I been eyeballing that guitar since I found your channel, that guitar is killer man, that and the stealth I been just eyeballin man lol...just badass guitars bro...
I have the Eric Peterson Old Skull V and it is a killer guitar. Similar to this one but with a black back, gloss neck, and EMG pickups. And the old skull graphic too of course.
Ola Englund is like Bruce Wayne in the 1989 Batman when Vicky Vale is eating dinner with him in a large room and she asks him "Do you like this room?" and he looks around a sec and says "I don't think I have ever ate in this room before..."
Hey, Ola, DR Strings pack their strings in such a way because they intend for you to switch the strings, in that order, to avoid uneven tension on the neck. It's supposed to prevent warping or something like that. It's an old-time thing, that probably originates from when guitars didn't have truss rods or something. Also, I've heard if you replace the strings in that order, it won't affect the balance of a floyd rose tremolo. That doesn't matter, if you've got a decent block for the tremolo cavity.
Dude, Elliott made us in the D.O.A. so many cool limited custom import runs. And we ran rampant in the custom shop! My USA dean customs are crazy unique.
@@rottingcorpse6002 I only visited HQ once to pick up a guitar or two, but met w/ ER despite him being busy. Was a real cool guy. I don't really regret selling guitars except my DOA silverburst Caddy and Euro Edge 5-string. You have video of your customs?
If there's plastic to peel, you can damn well bet I'm going to peel it! It's why I still enjoy pickguard making part of building guitars, regardless of the static charged router shavings that go everywhere, and cling to everything, haha.
Haha, a friend of mine went into a local shop and asked for Doctor Handmade strings. «Eh, do you mean DR strings?». Since then it’s always been Doctor Handmade to me.
Awesome guitar, ola 😎🤘🏻🎸 I’ve always liked dean guitars and basses. This dean guitar looks radical. I personally like the z guitars(especially since I’m a big fan of explorer styled guitars). And it’s funny that you call d.r strings doctor strings 😂 I’ve been saying that too. Especially since a former band mate of mine has been saying doctor strings when I was in his band years ago. Anywho this is an awesome video and the guitar sounds phenomenal 😎🎸
I had a Dean Cadillac Select in the 2000s. A few years later I got a VMNT. Sadly, they're gone now. I've got a Duncan Thrash Factor laying around. It'd be cool to get one of these guitars and put the Thrash Factor in it.
The Dean mid grade V models were fantastic. I have the white Martucci signature V, and it is better than both the Gibson Vs I have owned. Slightly narrower neck than a regular V, so that took a little getting used to.
Re: ear training - I find that my perception of pitch changes depending on a few factors. For example, I might hear things about 20 cents sharper at the end of a long day or when not well rested, and if I remember correctly, about 10 cents flatter when recovering from a night of heavy drinking - for my standards, that is 😅... So, I always need some sort of reference when tuning an instrument, otherwise I might tune lower or higher than intended.
Wait, wait, you're actually gonna tease us with the gibson story and not give us the ending !? I mean I see you're still making the Type G, so I know what the ending is. But please spill the whole tea !
Oh hey I’ve got the Brazilla Burst ML with a Floyd from that series! The frets needed some serious work, but otherwise the guitar is one of my favorite feeling & sounding guitars
I have one of these! Really fun guitars, I'd say they're comparable to Jackson's Pro Series in terms of build, quality and price. I've modded mine with Dimarzio clones by Jaden Rose and a Gotoh bridge
Ola pls help. I’m 14 and I don’t know where to buy a Dean from hell even tho I want one rlly bad. Where do u think I should look for getting one?? Thank you!!!
Ola - is there any chance you swapped that bridge pickup? The Select Series typically came with dual zebra black/white humbuckers with a special matte bobbin. I use a Dean ML Select in several of my videos and absolutely love it!
HEY DEAN GUITARS ! SINCE MY DEAN THIN BODY RESONATOR GOT STOLEN I HAVEN'T FOUND A RESONATOR OF THAT QUALITY AT THAT PRICE. Make a small series, thin body, ALL CHROME (gold painted hardware is sh*t), pearloid covered headstock, 1 cutaway, Strap Button ABOVE the neck joint like on a Gretsch 6120 (and not on the neck joint, painful when you use straplocks)!!! Thank you so much in advance!

I solve the problem of not having a space for setting up guitars, changing strings, soldering pickups, tuning etc by selling the guitar.
RIP
BTW when it comes to frets you have to tickle the nickel. They dent but that's when you know a guitar is good/played a lot.
@@CIRCLEOFTONE "tickle the nickel" goes hard (good advice too)
@@CIRCLEOFTONE Polish that thing into oblivion!
I did the same thing with my guitar lessons. I cancel them and get rid of the guitar. Now I'm full time youtube guitar channel subscriber.
well, this video made me want to hear Testament's The Gathering.... thank you very much, it's a great album :D
Their best imo
I have a Korean made one that I changed the bridge pickup to a boutique inspired by Bill Lawrence l500, really well crafted instrument and very inexpensive!
That look is so classic. Love a bound V!

Huge fan of Dean Cadillacs as well! I’ve had two Selects and they played and sounded great. Workhorse guitar.
wow, There's a guitar I would love to have... really nice
Same, no idea where to get one here in the EU
Have the same one, it's been sitting in a hard case for a while now, haven't had much time to play.
Oh Hello to you too Oh Oh Ola. Thanks for sharing with us brother.
always thought that it is one of your sickest guitars! glad to see it out
Love the My Guitar series. More please.
I have this guitar and love it. Switched all the hardware out for gold and put locking gold grovers on it. Took the duncan's out and put burstbuckers in it, a graphite nut, and a string butler. Guitar freaking rocks.
Thank you Ola.
these videos are my zen, so relaxing to have on in the background
The guitar sounds so good and looks badass!
Love the ‘my guitar’ segments 🎸🛠️
Man I been eyeballing that guitar since I found your channel, that guitar is killer man, that and the stealth I been just eyeballin man lol...just badass guitars bro...
Hy Ola, I also have four guitars from DEAN V. With Seymor Duncon . I care for her very much.
Thanks for the Video. Grüsse from Saxony.
Love ya from Florida✌️
1/4, 2/5, 3/6 packaging of strings is probably to distinguish the string Gauges more easily
Hell Yeahhhh the Dean select V is my fav guitar of all time (besides the MLs)
Dude that is SICK!!!
i love bull terrier we had one in the family she is in heaven now had a few pit bulls as well. bullls are so great
Ola looking after his employees and let them have coffee makes me happy 😊
I don't usually admire many Dean guitars but this one is nice 👌
More videos like this!!! Love that Dean! 😈
I absolutely want Dean V. They are freaking amazing!
If they Made a tyrant in that color at that level, would be bad as eff
I have the Eric Peterson Old Skull V and it is a killer guitar. Similar to this one but with a black back, gloss neck, and EMG pickups. And the old skull graphic too of course.
What a SICK guitar, I just tried an ML select on Sunday, exact same finish and mahogany back with satin finish on the neck. Played beautifully.

Really hope that Gibson lawsuit drama is over with and Dean can start making these again!
That’s really cool, I just got a dean z a couple of months ago and I love it.
Definitely enjoyed the vid format. The potential to learn something is my kind of content.
Elliott Rubinson from Dean was so cool to listen to us and to fix the import ML's shape/neckjoint and the import models' headstocks. RIP
Dude, Elliott made us in the D.O.A. so many cool limited custom import runs. And we ran rampant in the custom shop! My USA dean customs are crazy unique.

@@rottingcorpse6002 Yeah, i still have my DOA goldtop V and Green DOA V bass.
40 so years ago when dean came to my town they sat up along side
Moon Stone guitars too at the shop that carried em.
Love "My guitar" videos
🤠🤘🏻IT'S GOING TO BE FUCKING CRAAAZZZYYYY🤠🤘🏻
I like beveled edges on that guitar more than pointy ones and that headstock is badass
that V sounds killer. I bought the Eric Peterson Z a few years back love those Dean guitars
That’s actually a beautiful guitar!
Damn nice!
I played a dean z select and it was awesome!!!
Man that baby is clean 👌🏽
That's an awesome axe 🔥
I got Dean ML Select from that line and they are great guitars! I puted two Dimarzio X2N's and that's hell of a riff machine!
beauty beast⚡

i have the ml version of that series and its my favorite guitar of all time 🤘🏻🤘🏻🔥🔥
no string strech? great vid btw! love for this series to come back
Hi Ola, when you do the next "my guitar" video, can you include tips for setting the pick up height please???
A nice higher mid priced guitar! Selec series is really cool. I'm looking for a quilted maple top ml select myself.
Haha, a friend of mine went into a local shop and asked for Doctor Handmade strings. «Eh, do you mean DR strings?». Since then it’s always been Doctor Handmade to me.
I have the Fishman Flue one. Love it in D standard 425hz
I love the guitar! My main is a BC Rich DLXJRVO. Looks almost the same but has a marble binding and a headstock that looks like the Tower of Mordor
Replacement Floyd Rose. The one that came with it had super dull knife edges.
Every time you talk about feel of strings I think Dunlop is has the best feel highly suggest

thumb numero uno
SUPRISING
TESTAMENT must be played on that guitar! Eric Peterson vibes!
I've said it before, I'll say it again, please will me that guitar. You'll likely live longer than I, but I love that V
hahah Who took all your tops! Love that Dean btw! That purple Solar is sick also!
Hello Ola 🤘
My MD24 has that same pickup. I have to say its the angriest pickup I have ever tried. It absolutely loves drop B.
Dogs may be a pleasant interruption, but cats will try to attack each individual string as you remove it from the guitar / packaging. 😆
The Dean mid grade V models were fantastic. I have the white Martucci signature V, and it is better than both the Gibson Vs I have owned.
Slightly narrower neck than a regular V, so that took a little getting used to.
I have a Dean Custom 450 and is a really nice guitar, Dean should re-introduce this model.
you could take all those strings, take them to a local artisan, and make Ola string jewelry!! Swedes supporting Swedes!

yeah

tell us more about the Gibson Cease and Desist letter!

Made in indonesia wow.. cool guitar.🎉🎉🎉🎉
Ola had Cadillacs? I've had several - cool guitar shapes for sure.
Would be cool if Dean still sold guitars.
best part about this thing is the back of the neck
It looks like a rosewood
Ola pls help. I’m 14 and I don’t know where to buy a Dean from hell even tho I want one rlly bad. Where do u think I should look for getting one?? Thank you!!!
They don’t do them anymore. So you’ll have to find one used. Good luck!
@@OlaEnglund thanks ola! I will let u know if I get my hands on one!!!
Forgot to check intonation! But good vid.

Dean used to have Nitro finish before, as I heard.
You should play some Nile on that bad boy
I have a Dean RC7 and I love it! Thinking of picking one of these up. How is the neck? I like them really slim.
OLA: "Put them in the metal recycling."
Americans: "The what?"
I always thought that the Dean headstock was the best looking thing on a standard V shape.
Awwwwww pix
Man.. I'm playing with a Peavey that a own in the pawn shop ..😅😊
