Hi.
I bought this guitar today (24-09-04) and i was acually looking for a chaep nylon stringed guitar... butt i ended up buying this one...
here's a link on the guitar on the dean webpage
http://www.deanguitars.com/espana_classical_cscm.htm
these are the specs:
Cutaway electric With Built In Tuner In Preamp
Tradional Classic Design
Solid Cedar Top
Mahogany Back And Sides
Mahogany Neck
Rosewood Fingerboard
Mosaic Rosette
I bought it at "feedback", Rotterdam, The Netherlands. and it costed me 250 Euro.
It has a jack out and a XLR out. it has a 4 band Eq, volume and a knob to turn the tuner on. there is also a knob wich select manual tuner or auto tuner but this isnt a real addon to the guitar. it sounds great.
I tried the yamaha guitars (silent series) and i had a crafter for about 3 months but those didnt really sounded like i wanted a guitar to sound...
Sound

The sound is great.
Not to bassy. an not to trebly. you can get all kind of sounds and it is not hard to get them. the eq really reacts to your settings and the guitar sounds good in any setting up tll now (i played about 2 hours with it)
It is hooked up to a Roland Cube 30 with the acoustic sim. on.
I dont think i will buy a normal acoustic amp because this thing will do. I'm a guestmusician for a gospelchoir wich i think will be sounding better with this guitar in some songs..

This is the first ell/acoustic i have seen with a onboard tuner and that sounds good. and best of all... it has a pen trough the neck wich you can adjust to set your neck... i've never seen that with a classical guitar... it really is a great piece of art...

Dont know if i even will contact Dean. I bought the guitar at feedback rotterdam in the netherlands and i although many people dont like the place I always leave with a good feeling. Although ther is only one person at feedback wich is like. this is patrick schonenberg. he is a real help to you and he really knows what he is talking about. and best off al. he listens and wants to learn from you.
