I looked at that pic before I read the caption and said "What kind of Ferris Bueller reject band is this?!?!?!"

Hardly rejects. LOL. We've been together a long time and within the last year in the 80's Tribute thing. Getting good response so far as we continue to add material and tweak the show. Last night was awesome. Where we played there was an 80's themed 50th birthday party. A crazy bunch.

Bumping this from the depths to ask a question. Anybody have a Dean Vendetta XM Tremolo? Or know who manufactures them for Dean? They have a familiar serial number format that I've seen on multiple other makes of guitar so I'm trying to find out who built them.

Anyone have any idea? The serial # is of the format:

WSMxxxxxx.xxxx

And can be found on many different makes including Dean, Harley Benton, Indio, J&D, & others.

Anybody have any idea where they're from? Thanks!

White Dean Cadi 80 model and Leslie West Signature model.

It's definitely a factory in China. Which one, I'm not sure. But, it's not World Music or Cor-Tek

There is a Dean ML 79 Floyd at my local shop in white, I have a thing for odd ball offsets like that but just can not get past that giant head stock on it.

"Asia". Wouldn't bother to try to get more specific than that....

Seems appropriate to post this...

I noticed some of the 2021 Deans are made in India...

Those Leslie West's are nice guitars, if you want that LP Jr. vibe, without the Gibson part....

Plays great - pickup is noisy as hell. One of these days I'm going to install a quiet P-90.
