Dean V
Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Unsubst". Template:Infobox Guitar model The Dean V is a model of electric guitar and bass released by Dean Guitars in 1977. It forms part of Dean's classic line of guitars along with the Dean ML, Dean Cadillac and Dean Z. In addition to its body shape, the Dean V is recognisable for its V-shaped headstock and V-shaped tailpiece.[1] Some of the prominent users include Michael Schenker, Michael Amott, Eric Peterson and Karl Sanders.
Dean was ordered to halt sales of the V in 2022 after legal action was taken against the company by Gibson Guitars.[2][3]
