The lightweight string-thru Paulownia body of the Dean Vendetta XM is incredibly resonant and looks fabulous while dual naked humbuckers pump out huge chunk and searing sustain. Rosewood fretboard on a maple neck with 24-fret access is sweet and fleet.
Started playing on a kiddie guitar, this is my first "real" guitar, plays great, sounds good through my setup, which is basically a couple of Fab Pedals, ran directly through my PC sound card. The only problem I ran into was that I needed to tighten up the Volume and Tone knobs, just pull the back cover off and hand tighten them, and problem solved!

I just got mine an hour ago and all that I can say is that......If this is Dean's lowest entry level guitar I cannot wait to see what their other more expensive ones are like. This is a very light guitar compared to my Les Paul. It sounds great and resonates forever... The absolute best bang for your buck if you are a beginner on a tight budget. The tuners are not the greatest but those can be changed for under $50.00. The sound is awesome.... I have played others costing 5 times as much and this one blows them away. I got this as a practice guitar that I would not have to care for and worry about as much as my Les Paul. I must say that I see my LP sleeping in it's case for awhile now. I work nights and when I get home I want to play without waking the wife or the baby. This guitar is perfect for that because it sounds great even without an amp. It is very very light though and the wood grain is just a graphic but who cares this thing absolutely rocks. Also if you get this one, do not expect the natural color to be as light as the photos of it because it is really much darker. SUMMARY: This guitar would be a great deal at $300.00. I just noticed that some sites are listing this as a clearance item so do not wait and order yours soon. I really expected at best an OK guitar for 100 bucks. I got one of the best sounding axes I have ever had. I have been playing for 16 years now and have owned over 20 guitars and would rate this in my top 3

When my better half decided it would be fun for me to acompany her keyboard after 8 years of not playing guitar I went looking for a good deal just to please her. I tried 1000 dollar and up, 500 and up and they were good but when i picked up this little 150 dollar dean I was amazed. This monster plays better then the les paul i had and looks just mean. Great for metal and wierd combos that we do, havent had the tuner or strap trouble i hear about havent had to tune it in two months either and we check it every day. So to all you strat and les paul snobs, go ahead spend the big bucks we can play the tunes and have money left for beer.

Man, this guitar rocks out. If you are the metal loving guitarist... this is your guitar. It is very easy to handle, but it gets out of tune quckly. But, it does well in concerts. The other day, I played at my park in my neigborhood. The people loved it. A must have!!!

I got this guitar today, I gotta say. It has great sound and comes strung With D'addarios. cant get a better string in my opinion . I thought i was going to get an average guitar, but No I got a great sounding tune holding guitar I played it hard for an hour and it kept tune the tuning knobs are tight and the pickups are great There were a few scratches on the guitar but i am going to let them slide because of the great price. Totally Happy wouldnt give it away
