Opinions about Dean Electric Guitars

Unread post by mlb1399 » Fri Aug 20, 2004 9:01 am

I'm contemplating purchasing my first electric guitar. I have no knowledge about good brands or anything. I was wondering if I could get some opinions of what people think about Dean electric guitars and in particular, Dean Avalance MQ. The cost is around $325.

Far from great, but not bad.

decent guitar for the cost but for slightly more, many better options in my opinion. if you like it though, go for it.

Any suggestions for a reasonable new electric guitar? I don't want to spend too much as I mainly play accoustic.

Random movie quote to make you seem hip and "with it": I'm thinking about getting metal legs. It's a risky operation, but it'll be worth it.

some are gonna suggest a fender mexican strat, but id advise against that too. you can get a Godin in that price range that would be better than anything else ;)

yep, any mexican fender is a peice of shit in my opinion. considering the fact that for a little more you get a far more superior american, wich arent that bad...

but an american is gonna run you like $800 on the internet.
