Dean Guitars Custom 450Published on 11/04/08 at 00:44
(Originally written by bassiste1984/translated from Audiofanzine FR)

Made in Korea.
24 frets, 2 humbuckers (EMG-H4A on the bridge and EMG-H4 on the neck).
Floyd Rose tremolo.
Volume and tone controls plus 3-way toggle switch.
Fast and comfortable neck-through body.
I give it an 8 because of the passive EMG pickups...

UTILIZATION

Pleasant neck-through body.
Easy access to upper frets.
Well-shaped, ergonomic and light guitar. Well-balanced.
Typical metal tone, accurate and tight distortion sound. Poor clean sound.
I give it a 9 because of the clean sound.

SOUNDS

I play mainly heavy metal and this guitar was crafted for this purpose. And it looks awesome.

SOUNDS

I play mainly heavy metal and this guitar was crafted for this purpose. And it looks awesome.
I play with a Randall RH 100 G2 head and an ENGL 2x12" speaker cabinet. The sound is very accurate.
Versatile guitar for rock and metal. Rather heavy sound.

OVERALL OPINION

I've been playing this guitar for a couple of few weeks. I bought it in the USA, on Ebay.
I love the neck, the pickups (although they are passive) and the heavy and accurate sound (it was a nice surprise).
Excellent value for money for a guitar with this quality.
I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again.

EDIT 11/4/08:
I upgraded to an EMG 81 / 85 kit. Watch out for the power! This guitar always surprises me.
With a bit more experience now I can only confirm that this guitar rocks!

mahogany body, maple table, neck-through mahogany, rosewood fingerboard.
very classic but we will not complain, it sounds, and it exudes quality
on the I, EMG 81/85, three-position selector, a tone volume
floyd liscence that holds up well under the agreement once set, like all floyd.

UTILIZATION

the handle is really a killer. One of the best I had in hand. very similar to the PRS wide thin from home. It is rather late in C, which allows fast and accurate game, but we have something in hand anyway, and it's still very enjoyable agreements, not an ibanez
And the key is great, the best I've seen rosewood. not the low end a bit rough as I've seen elsewhere.
And access to acute...…

And access to acute bah is a driver handle, so he simply seems
Compared to the price it will cost you, I put 10. At the same price as I have not better.

SOUNDS

Great sound, must have seen the woods and pickups.
I play on the ENGL and it sends very heavy.
on the other hand it sounds modern, and I think it's not too versatile. but the metal in all its forms, must.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had it about a year and it really is a great guitar.
I have owned many guitars, and I at the level of a Series 1000 LTD or jackson SLS3. Except for the price haha

Best value for money I've seen.

what I remember: my god handle it!
