Dean Zelinsky Guitars

Dean Zelinsky, a legendary guitar designer/builder, launched his original brand in 1976. Zelinsky’s innovative designs have been embraced by Rock's top artists spanning four decades. The ZZ Top spinning fur guitars Zelinsky built made music video history in the ‘80s, along with the "ML" Guitar design, which became a trademark of Darrell "Dimebag" Abbott and greatly contributed to his sound. A partial roster of world-class guitarists who have graced the stages with Dean’s works include:

Michael Schenker, "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott (Pantera, DamagePlan), Billy Gibbons and Dusty Hill (ZZ Top), Randy Rhoads (Ozzy Osbourne), Zakk Wylde (Ozzy Osbourne), Dave Mustaine (Megadeth), Leslie West (Mountain), Trent Reznor (Nine Inch Nails), Jerry Cantrell (Alice in Chains), Elliot Easton and Rik Ocasek (The Cars), Rik Emmett (Triumph), Iron Maiden, Def Leppard, Sammy Hagar (Van Halen), Kerry Livgren (Kansas), John McFee (The Doobie Brothers), Nancy Wilson (Heart), Joe Don Rooney (Rascal Flatts) and many more...

Amongst a sea of guitar companies, few are owned by someone who can take a blank canvas and design a guitar, hand sculpt a body, shape a neck, spray a classic sunburst....

Zelinsky continues to balance tradition with ingenuity in his Private Label Guitars. Presented herein are instruments that embody Zelinsky’s 38 years of experience. With breakthrough concepts like the Patented “Z-Glide” neck and the ultra-thin single cutaway Zenyatta, Zelinsky has once again taken the function and design of guitar a bit further.
