    The Headless Option

    A feature that is gaining popularity in the guitar world is the headless option. We highly recommend this for those looking to achieve the utmost in ergonomic design. The advantages of a headless guitar include reduced weight and enhanced balance, resulting in a more comfortable playing experience whether you're sitting or standing. Dean Gordon Guitars' headless models are also designed to be compatible with wall hangers, a consideration that many major headless manufacturers (including even the big Swedish brand) overlooked. Additionally, we offer traditional headstock options for those who like head.

  • Dean Gordon Guitars Mirus fullcarve 7 string guitar.

    Ron P, Mirus 7

    “One of the easiest guitars to play out of everything I own. The upper fret access is amazing. The guitar itself is perfectly balanced, not even an ounce of neck dive and it weighs practically nothing. The contours and carves makes it very comfortable to play."

    Chris, 2x Virtus 7 owner

    "The neck fit is exceedingly smooth. The curve on the back off the headstock is flush with the hand and the access to the higher register is unlike any other guitar I’ve played. The aluminum wing that serves as the secondary cut that rests on your leg makes the guitar lighter than any other traditional double or single cut electric guitar, and comfortable for both classical, right leg casual and standing positions."
