Dean has bolstered its 2020 Select Series of electric guitars with the new MD 24 Select models.
The affordably priced guitars feature satin necks, easy-access heel joints and exclusive direct-mount Seymour Duncan pickups, as well as optional Floyd Rose tremolo systems.
Specs include custom basswood bodies with an arm cut and back belly cut, bolt-on three-piece maple necks with dual-action truss rods, ebony fingerboards with 24 jumbo frets and pearloid dot inlays, Grover tuners, black hardware and neck and headstock binding.
Pickups are a Seymour Duncan APH-1N Alnico II Pro at the neck and TB-5/SH-5 at the bridge, with custom zebra parchment finish and sand-blasted pole pieces. Controls are a single volume knob and a three-way toggle.
The MD 24 comes in four iterations: the Select Floyd Classic White ($799) and MD 24 Select Flame Top Floyd Trans Cherry ($849) feature a Floyd Rose 1000 Series tremolo system at the bridge and Floyd Rose R3 nut (1 11/16’’ width).
The non-Floyd MD 24 Select Classic White ($649) and MD 24 Select Flame Top Trans Cherry ($699), meanwhile, sport a Tune-O-Matic hardtail bridge with Dean’s exclusive Cadi tailpiece.
