2.0 out of 5 stars Great sound, but a bitch playing while standing, November 1, 2011

This review is from: Dean Bass, Demonator Metalman (Electronics)

Great bass, cool sound and of course looks.. But the main disadvantage is that its not properly balanced. So when playing it standing up, the neck drops down and especially for beginners in the fine art or bass-playing this is a huge disadvantage. I will sell mine and buy a conventional modelled one. For now, comfort is more important than looks..

This review is from: Dean Bass, Demonator Metalman (Electronics)

This bass is decent but is not as advertised. I own this bass. The action is fairly low but there is a good amount of string buzzing.
It is sold as a mahogany "neck thru" bass when in fact it is made from Basswood with a "bolt on" maple neck. After I bought the bass under a false description and 10 days of arguing with the guys at Dean they finally changed the item description at their website but Dean has not cared enough about their distributors or customers to see that the description is changed at the distribution websites as well. They also did not care that I was stuck with a bass I really did not want. I expected a one piece bass that was mahogany like I purchased not a bolt on basswood bass.
Even the product description and the Metalman series description do not match right here at Amazon on this very page. This is not Amazon's fault as they can only use info given to them by Dean the manufacturer. I have used Dean instruments since the mid 80's and I have to say I am very dissapointed in Dean and especially their customer service. I do not appreciate deceptive trade practices so I would say buy another brand of Bass.
