There is much more to the Dean USA Icon Flametop than its understated good looks. The guitar is crafted from high-quality materials, including an attractive carved, arched flame-maple top, tight-grained mahogany body and neck and an ebony fingerboard that's smooth as a marble table top. The hardware is of similar high quality, boasting USA DMT Custom humbuckers and satin nickel hardware. A single layer of wood binding surrounding the maple top adds to the Icon's classy appearance.
