Dean Exotica Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Quilted Ash Satin Natural Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This guitar is seriously sexy.It's got a natural finish which means no finger prints!
There's a bit of treble but its great for the money. It's a great sounding guitar and
sounds phenomenal plugged or unplugged.Obviously it's not going to sound like a Taylor or Martin
but for someone with a budget this is perfect. Tuner is great and deffinitely handy.
So happy with my purchase! :DDD

Dean Tradition Acoustic Guitar, Exotic Birds Eye Maple Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have been playing my "Dean Tradition Acoustic Guitar, Exotic Birds Eye Maple" ever since I received it this evening; I've taken a break to upload some pictures and write an initial review.
It is a very attractive instrument...well-constructed with nice details...and has decent action & volume...its pitch is somewhat bright, which I like, as it provides a contrast to my warmer cedar-top Seagull.
Here are Dean's specifications, directly from their web site:
"TRADITION EXOTIC
* Solid Spruce Top
* 5 Body Types Available (see below)
* 25-1/2" Scale
* Mahogany Neck
* Rosewood Fingerboard
* Pearl Dot Inlays
* Sealed Die Cast Tuners
* Celluloid Binding
* Woodcut Mosaic Rosette
* Finishes: Birds Eye Maple, Mapa Burl, Lacewood, Zebra, Quilted Ash"
I believe that the Birds Eye Maple covering the sides/back is a veneer over a mahogany underlayment.
Generally, the guitar was finished with good attention to detail: the only undesireable things that stood out to me [but were not 'deal-breakers' and may not matter as much to other folks] are:
* a few flecks & chips of wood embedded in the gloss finish
* the veneer is not aligned well [ie, the Birds Eye pattern is not matched up closely on the sides...I'm posting a photo to explain better].
* of more importance...at least, to me, since I initially ordered my guitar based on Amazon's "Product Features," which, as of this writing states "Machine Heads: Grover"...is that this guitar DOES NOT have "Grover" machine heads. It apparently has ones made by "Ping" [this is what I was told when I contacted Dean...and I also asked them why more than one website says "Grover" but they couldn't tell me]. If anyone is really hankering for Grovers, they'll probably have to plan on spending at least $50 to upgrade...just an FYI.
My pictures that I uploaded to the gallery will tell the rest of the story...excuse me while I get back to playing my new baby ;-)

Dean Exotica Acoustic-Electric Cutaway Guitar, Trans Black with Tuner Preamp Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Wow! Greatest buy I have made in a long time! I have played guitar for over 13yrs. I can't believe this was such a good deal I was a little sceptical of getting ripped off because I thought it was to good to be true. Well I got my guitar & it is exactly what I wanted Brand new in the box! My new Dean looks great for under $300.00 it's a steal. It's not quite deep as my acoustic but most acoustic/electrics aren't. It is a little tinny sounding but for the price with a digital on board tuner & chord scale key it is great! Change out the strings to one of your own liking, for me I prefer something a little deeper.. maybe some earneball super slinky'S 10's ;) "Check out GuitarCenter reviews on this Dean" BUY it at Amazon I saved about $100!!!
