A high-octane instrument that draws upon Dean’s legacy and is designed to satisfy the modern player’s need to push sonic boundaries and blur genre distinctions, the USA Zero Pickguard Gloss Natural expands the success of the USA Series platform, embracing established features while prioritizing the diverse sonic needs of its users.
The USA Zero Pickguard Gloss embodies the spirit of musical exploration and limitless creativity within the hard rock and metal genres with enough high-end features to facilitate excellence in those realms and beyond. An eye-catching deep gloss Mahogany body is paired with a classic black finish on the headstock with a distinctive Dean profile for a look that is both aggressive and sophisticated. The premium visual treatment is enhanced further with single-ply cream binding and gold hardware throughout. A slippery ebony fretboard extending to 22 frets embellished with Pearl Ultra Diamond inlays completes the stunning aesthetic package.
The USA Zero Pickguard Gloss Natural’s HH pickup configuration features a USA DMT Baker Act Gold humbucking bridge pickup that screams with overwound attitude and a powerful low end, while the USA Time Capsule neck pickup offers glassy tones that excel across a multitude of genres. A CTS 500k Audio Taper potentiometer produces far less high-frequency signal loss than units with lower pot values, resulting in clear, bright sounds across a broad spectrum. The intuitive control layout is made up of Top Hat Gold knobs for volume and tone matched to a three-way toggle pickup selector switch. Other premium features also include a Tone Pros Tune-O-Matic bridge with gold Z Plate and Grover® Locking 18:1 tuners for reliable tuning stability throughout even the most aggressive string-bends and wild riffage.
Through this build, the Dean USA Zero Pickguard Gloss Natural offers hyper-playability and unparalleled sonic capacity married to stunning form for guitarists who demand the best and are redefining what high-performance sounds like.
