Made in China in July 2010.
Well-built except the electronics and metal corrosion.
Previously listed as made in Japan, I reached out to Dean guitars by phone and they were able to confirm the country of manufacture as China. My apology for misrepresentation.
What's wrong?
-corrosion on many metal parts
-killswitch gave out around 2016
-there's a grounding issue, I believe where the ground wire should connect to the bridge post but I don't have the time to tear this down and find out
-needs new pots
-needs a fresh nut (high e frets out around 15th fret)
-chips on both lower horns & upper horn
-chip on right headstock horn
What's right?
-action will be great w/ new nut & setup
-great Grover tuners
-minimal fret wear
-good pickups
-good P/U switch
-good neck pocket
-Dean gig case that will fit this monster
-all damage is cosmetic except electronics & nut (to my knowledge)
My advice to the buyer is to do a full overhaul on the wiring, this gives you the opportunity to change the control configuration however you like.
