1980 Dean ML Flame series

For those of you who don't know, these were 2 pc Honduras mahogany bodies/necks with rosewood and very rolled, very thick neck binding. Relatively fat C-neck, original Klusons changed for Grovers, original pickups (Super Distortions) changed for Duncan Distortion and a new Super D, brand new 6100s and new bone nut. It will come in a newer Dean Time Capsule case. It's definitely in player shape, with worming on the back and smooth worn spots from a forearm and a gut, but hot damn is it a player. I'm looking for 1200 shipped, because it's big and heavy in the case and it's not going to be cheap. I took a HUGE hit on shipping the last time I sold guitars online. I'm expecting close to or over $100...

I didn't make a lot of these modifications, but I'm glad somebody did. Old school Klusons+extreme string angle+poorly cut factory nut=not staying in tune. Now it's stable as hell.

Looks pretty sweet.

Looks VERY sweet. I love my old Deans.

How is the neck compared to the Hamer vintage carve (on this and the czech caddy)? Maybe it's time to get a Dean.... What are your views on international shipping?

Edit: How red is it? Is the treblehorn on the second picture representative
