DEAN GUITARS Unveils DIMEBAG's REBEL RAZORBACK Creation

April 11, 2006

Dean Guitars has announced the release of what it believes is one of the finest guitars Dean has ever made — the Rebel Razorback guitar (photo),a creation of the late "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott. Sculpted with razor-like edges, and points-to-kill, Dean's Rebel Razorback is a visual six-string weapon made for those who play like they've got a pair.

The Razorback was designed by Dimebag Darrell in conjunction with Dean Guitars. So far, four different Razorback models have been issued and heavy players, such as Zakk Wylde and 20-year old guitar phenom Matt Heafy of TRIVIUM — one of the hottest new players out there — have identified with its attitude.

Commented Dean B. Zelinksy, Dean co-founder: "Dime lived the guitar. Besides being a monster player, he also was a monster creator. He always 'Dimed' his guitars to the specs he wanted. The Razorback is a shape Dime envisioned and wanted us to create. I lost a friend when Dime was killed but I'm proud to continue his vision and carry on his complete legacy."

The Rebel Razorback fronts a painstakingly hand airbrushed, distressed rebel flag within its beveled edges and on the famous Dean V headstock. The flag pays homage to Dimebag's Texas roots. The Rebel Razorback has a mahogany body and neck and is equipped with a Floyd Rose tremolo, Grover tuners, Dimebucker neck pickup and a Dimarzio bridge pickup. The ebony fingerboard is highlighted with pearl Dean V position markers and a pearl razorblade on the 12th fret.

The Rebel Razorback lists for $6,667.00 and includes a Dean hardshell case.
