DBZ Bachetta Eminent FR Blueburst 2009
DBZ Bachetta, blueburst, made in China 2009. DBZ is a brand started by Dean Guitars founder Dean B. Zelinsky. This one is a superstrat style deal, but it's got a bit of extra personality. The wild lines, pearloid binding, flame top and pointy headstock are all cool visual touches, whule the classic combo of a 1000 series Floyd Rose trem bridge and a pair of nasty EMG active humbuckers delivers a rather classic pissed-off tone. This one has been dialed in by our local shrednerd Steve, so it's playing super slick and quick and feels fantastic. I keep accidentally calling it the Bruschetta, so you'll have to forgive me for that... I'm a bakery addict.
