AndyTravis Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 Someone could absolutely not make their mind up when designing that thing. I ordered one for a customer once…I didn’t “get it” then, still don’t now. Peavey did something called a Void or something around the same time. Also a pig.

tauzero Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 I don't feel even the faintest stirring of desire for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassassin Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Got that wonky Musicvox thing going on with the body shape, although I don't think it's trying to be deliberately wacky or kitschy. Hard to tell, though. And I have an unreasoning loathing for Dean's idiotic 'tiny Flying V' headstock. Always makes me think of this w@nker's bass. (Just re-read this before posting and I'm actually not in anything like as bad a mood as it sounds!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedX Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 Interesting that the seller didn't feel confident enough to post a photo that showed all of the bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rushbo Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 As a (mainly) P bass guy, that's not my thing at all, but the body shape is rather pleasing IMO. The headstock is a health and safety nightmare, but I'd imagine the sort of hardrockin' bassperson who ends up with this instrument, will care not one jot for risk assessments. I've played a few Dean basses and I briefly owned a Jeff Berlin model- all nice instruments to play. It looks like a tidy instrument and at £130, I'd say that was good value for money. Someone's gonna love that. It's the straplocks that offend me the most about this bass... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudewheresmybass Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 The demonator shape was a signature model for David Vincent from Morbid Angel. The MM series (of which this is one) were cheaper versions of the original. the mm 1 pickup model retailed around £200, and the 2 pup active version around £300. When I endorsed Dean I had a single pup version and the Thru neck version. The shape -to me - was thunderbird meets moosrite, and I still love my neck thru. £130 is about all they go for these days, certainly in this configuration Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astonishingly, that red one was called the Tragic. The Tragic. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prowla Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 The details say "No returns accepted." - I'm not surprised! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
