I saw all the new humbucker models you mentioned but no lefties. Looks like they are backing off from making lefties.

There is a Dean dealer on ebay who still has the other models in stock. I would like to have one of those Avalanche MQL's for $383 with the flamed finished top but more serious about maybe buying the Vendetta 1.0 for $269, which means I would be selling my Fender DG-10 and Jay Turser Telecaster when I get it back from the factory for a little problem with the nut and a 'proper setup'. The person who buys the tele will get a much better guitar than I got off the assembly line. The Fender is just a disappointment because I am used to playing a better quality guitar and the Fender string height is so high, it is unreasonable and unmanageable for me. The plan was to buy a cheaper acoustic to take out to lessons but I have learned that you can't go down in quality, only up. I have to use the Dean Performer SE at all times when I practice with acoustic.]]> Guitar Players Discussion JosephLefty https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/frustrated-lefty/paged/2/#post-88589 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/frustrated-lefty/paged/2/#post-88585 Sun, 06 Feb 2005 15:45:15 +0000
How bad was it last time and who was it with? If it was Regents I'll be very surprised.]]> Guitar Players Discussion Tucker https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/frustrated-lefty/paged/2/#post-88585 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/frustrated-lefty/#post-88506 Sat, 05 Feb 2005 23:42:07 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion Templeton https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/frustrated-lefty/#post-88506 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/frustrated-lefty/#post-88472 Sat, 05 Feb 2005 21:44:30 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion Tucker https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/frustrated-lefty/#post-88472 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/frustrated-lefty/#post-88450 Sat, 05 Feb 2005 16:57:36 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion Ignar Hillström https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/frustrated-lefty/#post-88450 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/frustrated-lefty/#post-88447 Sat, 05 Feb 2005 16:20:04 +0000
But it looks like they cut down on their lefty production. Seems they no longer make the upgraded avalanche in quilted maple or the Vendetta hardtail. There are still Dealers who have them though I have seen on e-bay, no bargain prices, just the standard going rate with a buy it now option.

A Schector Omen 6 is another guitar I hear nothing but good things about. I just lost out on one on ebay yesterday that was hardly used and could have had it for $100 under regular cost and been happy but...sometimes I just don't bid quite high enough, always looking for that awesome deal to get me jumping up and down. Sort of a hobby. There will be another down the road.]]> Guitar Players Discussion JosephLefty https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/frustrated-lefty/#post-88447 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/frustrated-lefty/#post-88443 Sat, 05 Feb 2005 15:06:22 +0000 http://www.deanguitars.com]]> Guitar Players Discussion Ignar Hillström https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/frustrated-lefty/#post-88443 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/frustrated-lefty/#post-88423 Sat, 05 Feb 2005 04:36:38 +0000
I bought a cheap clone and flipped it to Left Handed until I went to the USA on a business trip and then bought 2 LH guitars.

Don't know if the same option is open to you - get something and flip it (maybe second hand) and then order the guitar you want. You might find it worth the wait.]]> Guitar Players Discussion jimscafe https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/frustrated-lefty/#post-88423 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/frustrated-lefty/#post-88320 Fri, 04 Feb 2005 18:25:09 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion Templeton https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/frustrated-lefty/#post-88320 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/frustrated-lefty/#post-88316 Fri, 04 Feb 2005 17:27:20 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion yoyo286 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/frustrated-lefty/#post-88316
