I have a few friends that work there and was able to get into a late tour. John (STRATDELUXER97) and I got their around 2:30 in the afternoon and left about two hours later, what a cool tour. I have been on the Gibson tour, but this was by far the absolute best. They really spent time showing us around, kinda an all access pass. I love the John Entwistle Hybred it's a sweet well balanced bass. But I took a lot of pics for you all to drool over lol. This place was ginormous, no pun intended Reggie lol.

WOW!! DROOL!!! Im so jealous.. I was supposed to go to Dean this weekend, (DOA 2011) but had to surrender my spots due to lack of resources to make the trip....

That double neck is sweet! Also, Id LOVe to have all those toys in the first couple of pics!!
 
Re: Dean Guitar Factory Tour

Thats right when I talked to Elliot he said something about the DOA 2011. I won't be going either, prior commitments. I also heard Elliots in a band called "Cactus"
 
Re: Dean Guitar Factory Tour

Steve....the pictures are awesome and thanks for posting them! Cactus is a band from the early 70s...Tim Bogert was the bass player for them then....Elliott is his current replacement...Elliott is also doing some stuff with one of the Schenker brothers...

WWWOOOWWW!!! Those pics are priceless, man. I'm glad you two had a good time. The only place I ever toured was the Moosehead beer factory in Canada. However, they have a bar right in the building and at the end of the tour you can go and sample as much beer as you want. They had to carry a few people out, lol. True story.

Must be a slammin bassist! Cool that he is a real musician..

Gene, I was so hoping to meet you face to face and join the fun.. If I can score spots next year, Ill be there if I have to ride a bicycle... I had been planning this for a year and a few last minute life things put me in a tail spin..
 
Re: Dean Guitar Factory Tour

Looking forward to the (freeway) jam on Friday night, and the tour Sat morning!

High-end metal guitars are so much fun. It's great to see companies keeping the faith. :headbang:

You know they were working on one of those in the custom shop, but my camera and phone had already died. Seen one that was raw and feeling the bare wood on your hands was ..... well something. I would love to work there and learn as much as possible in every area.
