Why the Bolter Series

Built to put Dean Gordon guitars into more hands.

Each release is built in advance in runs of five to ten instruments, using the same construction as our custom shop line — brand-name pickups, Hipshot hardware, stainless steel frets, carbon fiber reinforcement, and quartersawn necks — without custom-order pricing. Every guitar is built in our workshop and personally inspected by Dean before it earns the DG logo.
