Product Ref: 105984
Featuring a pair of DMT Design humbucking pickups in the bridge and neck position, the ML 79 delivers a powerful and punchy tone with plenty of bottom end and highs. The DMT Design humbuckers are perfect for a range of playing styles and music genres. They particularly excel when used for hard rock.
The ML's unique body shape is guaranteed to make a strong statement on any stage. The ML shape was created by Dean Zelinsky in 1977 with the idea of spreading the mass of the body over a larger area, in order to maximise sustain and improve tone. The mahogany body delivers a warm and rich tone with excellent depth. It also offers durability and a tone which will mature over the years, for a long lasting investment.
The Dean ML 79 guitar has a large, V-shaped headstock, which provides increased string angles and string length which contributes to the overall sustain. The mahogany, V shaped neck profile allows faster playing and is designed to it into some guitarist's hands more comfortably. The neck is coupled with an pau ferro fingerboard for enhanced articulation and attack which extends the tonal characteristics of the mahogany
With a design that has stood strong for over 30 years, the Floyd Rose Special Locking Tremolo allows you to adjust the string tension and pitch with the removable whammy bar to create unique sounds such as dive bombs. Unlike non-locking tremolos, the Floyd Rose Special bridge can make huge changes in pitch but still retain the initial tuning by addition of the locking nut at the end of the headstock.
