The Dean Soltero is a guitar manufactured by Dean Guitars and was first introduced in 2006. It was designed by Dean Zelinsky, resembles the Gibson Les Paul, and has the classic Dean V profile neck. Soltero means "single" in Spanish and refers to the single cut style of the guitar. The first 100 guitars were hand-signed by Dean himself. Available in four models: USA, USA MHG, Japanese and Korean models. Among the famous guitarists who play a Dean Soltero are Jerry Cantrell of Alice in Chains, and Leslie West, who has his own signature model.
