If you listen to hard rock or metal, chances are you’ve already heard a Dean electric bass. Outrageously playable and made to look as tough as they sound, Dean is the name artists world-wide turn to when they want to crank up the volume. If you’re looking for a new weapon of choice to take on stage, and you really want to be heard, you’ve definitely come to the right place. Are you just starting out on the bass but still want every note to hit hard? If so you’re going to want to start your search with the Edge 1 Electric Bass Guitar. Featuring soap bar pickups for a clean low-end, a custom-designed 34" bolt-on maple neck, and abalone dot fingerboard markers to help with position, you’ll be stunned that this is an entry-level 4-string bass. Comfortable to hold, but with a bold look, you’ll have stage presence from day one.
If you’re here to add a heavier edge to your play though, you need to check out the Dean Metalman 2A V Bass Guitar. Screaming with attitude, this flying-V electric bass features a basswood body, 2-band active tone circuits and dual humbucker pickups that make it brutally growl, assaulting audiences everywhere. It’s even finished with skull knobs and buzz saw inlays giving it an even more aggressive look.
As well, if you’re here to expand the range of what you’re bass can do, you’ll find five, six, eight and even 12-string basses here. Options like the Edge 5-String EMG Electric Bass Guitar, the Edge 6 6-String Bass, the Edge 8 8-String Electric Bass, and the Rhapsody 12 12-String Bass all balance tone, playability and style to create instruments that will instantly grab audiences’ attention.
The list of Dean bassists are as impressive as the music they create with their instruments. Eric Bass of Shinedown, Jamison "Beefcake the Mighty" Land of GWAR, Vinnie Hornsby of Sevendust and so many more heavy-hitting headliners all rock out with a Dean electric bass when they need to cut through on stage. Giving musicians the power they want with designs that can’t be ignored, there’s nothing else out there like a Dean electric bass.
