  • The Dean ML is an electric guitar made by Dean Guitars in 1977 along with its counterparts, the Dean V, Dean Cadillac and Dean Z. This is the most well known Dean Guitar due to the radical look and V shaped Headstock and V shaped tailpiece. It was popularised by the guitarist Dimebag Darrell. It is one of the most well known heavy metal guitars and has received many tributes from guitarists such as Michael Angelo Batio and Dimebag Darrell of pantera. A special feature of this guitar that was different from many guitars at the time is that the neck had a slight "v" shape to it, which allowed for fast playing, yet it was still strong. Also this shape allowed it to fit into the hand more comfortably. The mass of the guitar is spread out over a wider area than most guitars in order to maximize sustain. The "V"-shaped headstock and "string-through-body" design are also used to increase sustain and improve tone. It was named in honour of Matt Lynn, who was a childhood friend of Dean. The Dean ML's body shape resembles that of a Gibson Flying V combined with the upper half of a Explorer.
