The Guitar Player's Resource
The Dean USA ML Custom Shop guitar plays amazing with fast, low action (zero buzz), and features a super high gloss finish.
Dean Zelinsky created the ML in 1977, striving for improved sustain and tone. Higher string angles and string length, due to the size of the headstock, contribute to the overall resonance.
The ML was named posthumously for the initials of Zelinsky's friend Matthew Lynn, who had died of cancer.
