Members Lonnie99 Posted December 31, 2012 Members Share Posted December 31, 2012 Picked these up today. Dean Cadillac Select with EMGs and an Electra X230 with OHSC. Both are for flipping, but I'll enjoy them until they sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members scott944 Posted December 31, 2012 Members Share Posted December 31, 2012 Dean Cadillac was one of my dream axes back in high school, when Kerry Livgren of Kansas played one. I've nearly bought a couple of the imports like yours. Had one of those Electras back in the day, too. Well played, sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Lonnie99 Posted December 31, 2012 Author Members Share Posted December 31, 2012 Duncan, you got a steal on yours. These regularly get between $5-600 on eBay. They both need cleaned up, which won't happen for a few days. The guy I got the Electra from had it for about 15 years and never realized the bridge pickup ring is on backwards. I love the old MIJ guitars. With the 5 way rotary knob and the two mini toggles there's an endless supply of tones coming out of this thing. Scott, Kansas is my all time favorite band and I too am a big Kerry Kivgren fan. I believe he played a Dean Elite, but they were the same body style as the Cadillacs. The EMGs just sound HUGE in this thing. For those that think EMGs are for metal only that couldn't be further from the truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Bbreaker Posted December 31, 2012 Members Share Posted December 31, 2012 Brings back memories of a long gone 1980 Dean Cadillac I once owned. Good guitar and nicely priced in the market of old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members gdsmithtx Posted December 31, 2012 Members Share Posted December 31, 2012 That Cadillac Select is unusual and distinctive and pretty damned cool. Drop some nice non-active pups in there and that could be a keeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
