This masterpiece of art arrived today. I bought this for my brother who gives to others in his time talent and instrumental gifts. He had no idea I bought this and for him to open and the joy he had because he loves Deans guitars and the one I choose for him was exactly what he wanted. To add the touch of class of this beautiful sounding and looking piece of art. Dean on this guitar."Made for Hyland with Deans signature on the back of it. Not only was this instrument superior sounding and of beauty it had a love from one musician to another. The best smile I have seen from my brother. Thank you for your personal touch to another musician.

Absolutely gorgeous guitar better than I imagined. The only down side is the tremolo cover is missing 2 screws not a huge deal. But... for the price I would have expected it to have all its screws

Wow! Thanks Dean! What a pleasure to play one of your innovative creations….ATW, Z- glide neck…..craftsmanship beyond compare…. Don’t know why I waited so long …. The last guitar I’ll ever own

Beyond my expectations. Absolutely beautiful and plays just as good as it looks.

Walking through the door of Dean’s factory was an experience I won’t soon forget, stepping through the door is almost fairytale like, taking you back in time to Geppetto’s work shop. The smell of fresh sawdust in the air, templates on the wall, in-progress guitar necks hanging overhead, laser etched bodies ready for assembly, in-lay mother of pearl spiders itching to be set in fingerboards; a real wood workers dream come true. You can sense passion at every station and witness technology seamlessly blended into the process. The overriding theme is a cross between innovation and quality, both competing for prominence.
I’ve had the distinct pleasure of meeting a real down to earth, humble Dean previously but in this world I gained a real appreciation for Dean’s inner genius. In the world of guitar building, Dean Zelinsky is quite frankly brilliant. A real innovator and creator. A bit Mozart and Einstein; Antonio Goudy and Warhol, Michael Angelo and Bocelli. It’s no wonder every guitar Dean builds is a masterpiece. I can’t wait to see what he will come up with next.
