Uli Jon Roth unveils the Dean Sky Guitar at NAMM

[Ahriman75]

"It's all about Dean" says the reporter in a desperate attempt to turn the spotlight back on Dean. Great job Dean, but let's face it: It's all about Uli.

[GnarlyBones]

IT'S MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN I EVER IMAGINED! You have done what people dare to dream! *sky guitar starts flying away* ARGH! GET YOUR WINGS!

[Amadeusmetal666]

what pickups are in that guitar?

[imboardnotstupid]

"Uli wasn't comfortable with it being replicated" but then we offered him a shit load of money and exploited a perfect market opportunity to make ourselves a shit load of money as well.

[yootubematt]

Much love to Uli, but why is he so obsessed with the sky? Everything that he's named has had the word sky in it!

[chosenfool]

@yootubematt I interviewed Uli in 2000 and asked him what inspires him to create and his answer was "the sky." So, there you have it.

[GTWHITEFEVER]

Uli sounded better with a strat ...

[rageagainstboxhead]

10k for that guitar. It's not that special

[DarthPietrus]

i want it

[billkropp]

There are pickups in the fingerboard?!!!! WHOA!!

[chosenfool]

@billkropp No, just one very powerful pick-up under the fingerboard, plus the visible neck pick-up.

[billkropp]

@chosenfool COOL Never listened to Uli until I heard Yngwie going on about him. Mean version of All Along The Watchtower by Uli from the 70000 Tons of Metal cruise out here on You Tube - incredible!

[kamikazie1974]

I must admit, that guitar is a work of art!

[manticore117]

that whammy bar is a fucking beast

[rockking1995]

has this guitar come out... or when will it

[SuperArschloch3000]

yes young boy listen to GOD i mean the god of neoclassical rock guitar playing Mr.ULI ROTH

[jfkdjfd]

See Dave Mustaine's Rust In Peace guitar under Roth's? that's how it should be.

[jfkdjfd]

I'd like to see him in the flesh, to talk to him, would be like talking to god.

[HurricaneTBag]

I never knew the owner of Dean Guitars was that young, I always pictured him as some older guy. Nicely done by Dean though...they're building an extremely impressive catalog of guitars.

[jvms111]

Hello, where, and when will I be able to buy it?

[L0stH0riz0n21]

bet you yngwie malmsteen bought one already

[XAlphaZEROX]

@L0stH0riz0n21 he has had one for a while.

[AASStormcrow]

@L0stH0riz0n21 Strange aas it may seem yngwie already has one, look the video here on youtube in wich they interview him at his studio, he has one lying on the floor

[XAlphaZEROX]

@AASStormcrow Street Guitars produced a limited run of 50 guitars and Uli Roth did give away his earlier Sky Guitars.

[Applefan1995]

He sounds like he's struggling while he's talking....

[ForViewingOnly]

Dean must realise that the demand for this guitar is much greater than just 50 pieces. Does anyone know what these guitars sold for?

[DeanGuitarsVideos]

@ForViewingOnly I believe the street price is supposed to be around $7999.00.We'll see once the run is completed in the factory. As for only doing 50 of them. That's the point, Uli and Dean Guitars wanted to create an exclusive, elusive, unique piece of classic instrumentation and art.

[Voltan]

@DeanGuitarsVideos So once the 50 is up, that's it?

You'll never make anymore again? :-(

[Voltan]

@DeanGuitarsVideos You're losing potential profit by doing only 50.

Surely you could reconsider and make production of this a yearly thing. Just limit the production of it.

[MYkillingFETISH]

@ForViewingOnly i seen them on deans website for 10,000

[Mr101395]

@ForViewingOnly go to gear hound .com they have them there i believe

[SamItSkiSki]

i dated Uli's niece.

[Yowzow]

@SamItSkiSki Red Dragons man

[jvms111]

@SamItSkiSki

Yeah, sure.

Pics or it didin't happened

[haropro2]

Uli sounds like the scientests from Metalocalypse

[TheHindenborg]

Elliott Dean? I thought Dean Zelinsky ran Dean Guitars? I don't get it.

[schecterman123]

@TheHindenborg Zelinsky is in charge of DBZ guitars so he has appointed Elliot Dean to work allong side him to co-managa Dean to my understanding

[DeanGuitarsVideos]

@schecterman123 Elliott Dean is the sole owner of Dean Guitars. Dean Zelinksy used to work for Elliott Dean.

[dadasha]

How cool was that term...It's only a week old!

[ReapersShredder]

woooho 666 views,that's a good sign :D

[Bloodline616]

Finally Uli gets endorsed. Amazing guitar from an amazing guitar player. The price is reasonable but only 50 will be made. Wish I had the money to buy one. I gotta say I would be a little intimidated by this guitar. I hope it's a great success for Uli and more guitars are produced, but the first 50 will be signed and named by Uli.

[nylonsteel]

Love Ulis playing always but the sky guitar sounds shrill in the upper register .Guitars are not meant to be in the Violins upper register ,godbless Uli though.

[goheklikaplunco]

I counted 31 frets on the 3 high strings, damn!

[pantera142325]

@fenderstratplayer14 no one gives a shit

[fenderstratplayer14]

your just jealous and i didn't ask for your opinion

[pantera142325]

@fenderstratplayer14 what ever dude
