Hey guys, do you know where can get the MAB1 in korea?

I sent an email to Steve, but he's no replying.

So just in case he doesn't have one, can you recommend a good website?


Thanks guys

If Steve hasn't emailed you back by now let me know in a PM.

It seriously wouldn't be worth anyone's time and effort. If somebody did come close, they would want to charge $10,000, lol

Due to the nature of the graphic of the armorflame, it's pretty much impossible to make an accurate fake. It would be obvious. Like drew said, they'd overcharge because of that, rather than being dirt cheap like most phony's. You have nothing to worry about.

There's only one Dean

I guess you can personally order one if it helps you sleep at night, but be prepared to pay shipping. If you can find a dean dealer near you, see if they can get one ordered for you, then just buy it from the store. They should be happy to help you, most employees at guitar stores are paid commission on every sale they make.



According to the Dean site, theres at least one Dean dealer in Korea, although there could be more:

Country Republic of Korea
Distributor School Music

umm dude it is easy to copy ANY graphic on guitars to make a fake >.< ANY graphic is easy to copy man. even if i just u have a low resolution video of it just showing the guitar ( and there are high reso pics on da net. ) u can copy it in 100 different ways. The nature of the graphic is no doubt very cool but u forget its in gray scale aside from that the design is a monster to humans not to computers. dude ANY design can be copied in this world and a person in a guitar shop really wont be able to tell when he just sees a MAB1 there lying around. he wud be OOHH AN MAB1 not ohh thts a fake >.>... And for all you know these guys might have bought 1 orignal mab1 and made several copies out of it so dude it is sad and infact it demotivates guitar makers to make more new guitars. Welcome to the Jungle

let me know when you find a fake MAB signature then since its so easy

no doubt it can be done, but to replicate it exactly it would cost lots as drew said since the machinery etc that applies the graphic exactly costs thousands

the other features on the guitar such as the trem, pickups and tuners make it distinguishable too, so if the person who faked it actually bothered to do all this and the graphic then you wouldnt be getting a bad deal

think about it..

It would be VERY, VERY difficult to create a decent fake and sell it around the price. The graphics are very detailed, and there is a signature of the artist who created the graphic on the guitar (if you know where to look). The graphics are even under the Floyd Rose.

Not to say it's impossible, but probably not economical unless they could sell in bulk.
