The Story

USA Patents Pending ML Classic Black

This new USA made Dean is a replica of the original Dean ML, when all features were still pending from the US Patents office - it's even got a Patents Pending stamp on the back of the oversized headstock! The ML has a mahogany body and neck with a maple top, a nitro lacquer finish, ebony fingerboard, red side dots on a thin "C" neck profile, and DiMarzio Super Distortion humbuckers which help the guitar sound just like you'd expect - straight out of the '80s!

Includes: Hardshell Case and Paperwork
