Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I wanted an intermediate level guitar for practice so that I wouldn't have to lug my LP Standard around. First off let me say this guitar is an absolute steal for the money. Do the math!! A Floyd Rose Special tremolo system would set you back by at least $150 on fleabay (regular price is well over $200). Add excellent Dean DMT time capsule humbuckers ($79 each) and you have over $360 in hardware without switches, body, neck, strings, wires, truss rod, tuning hardware etc. The pickups are excellent and tonal clarity is second to none. I was a bit skeptical considering a guitar under $300 could sound so good. The retail price (MSRP) on this one is $799 and it would be a strong contender at that price too. This is my first Floyd Rose guitar and this thing stays in tune even after using the tremolo bar (whammy bar) repeatedly. All you have to do for fine tuning is adjust the thumb screws and you never have to adjust the string tension knobs, brilliant.
The body is made of mahogany and the transparent red finish is stunning. Design wise, I would still prefer the classier looking Dean hardtail but then, I like less flashy conservative designs and it is purely a matter of personal preference. Get this one before they are sold out because it is tough to find a pitch perfect intermediate to advanced guitar at this price!!
BTW I spoke to a rep at Dean and the 1000F is a special model built exclusively for Musicians Friend/Guitar Center. It is similar hardware-wise to the vendetta 4F except that the Vendetta 4F is neck-through construction whereas the the 1000F has bolt-on neck. The Vendetta 4F has a street price $650 ($1000 retail) while the 1000F is just $300 ($800 retail).
