Dean has introduced no less than 6 new basses for Summer 2003, reintroducing some set-neck models, adding three new models to the Edge series, and a very different acoustic jazz box bass.

First on the list are the set-neck versions of the Cadillac and Z basses. Dean has brought these back along with modern upgrades in electronics and hardware. The Cadillac offers a P/J pickup configuration with 2-band EQ while the Z has dual EMG HZ pickups with 2-band active EQ.

The new Dean Stylist Bass is something different - an F-hole acoustic jazz box body, floating Tune-O-Matic bridge, trapeze tailpiece and offset mother of pearl fret markers .
