Here are my two USB-12 type 12-string basses. A Galveston MkII on the left, and a Carlo Robelli version on the right. As I said before, they are virtually identical, both having been built in the same South Korean factory as the Dean Rhapsody 12ver. Cheers, Bill

Sorry to resurrect this old thread again, but I also have one of the Carlo Robelli 12vers, as well as a Galveston MkII version. They are essentially identical basses, built in the same factory in South Korea as the Dean Rhapsody 12-string bass. I am not sure where the Deans are being built...

I am still kind-of sort of in the market for Dean Rhapsody 4 and 5 string basses. Very difficult to find used out there. Always sold before I see their ads online.

The Galvestons were made in two runs. The MkI version is the brown one pictured first, and then the MkII version afterward, pictured second. I have a MKII just like the one pictured, color and all. I also have a Carlo Robelli model that is identical to the Galveston. Yes, they were made in...

I am looking forward to trying this out when it hits the market!

Hey, I know that it has been five months, but I am taking a chance to see if this unit might still be available for sale? I am specifically looking for one of the "newer" units. They look less 80s-style, IMHO. ;) If it is still available for sale, please let me know ASAP! Many...

*BUMP* Anyone?

Hello all! I was curious about the necks for the Dean Edge and Rhapsody series basses. Would it be possible to swap the necks between a Dean Edge 8 and a Dean Rhapsody 12? If so, would it also apply to *any* Edge versus Rhapsody bass? I am assessing the feasibility of this because...

Hello all! I was curious about the necks for the Dean Edge and Rhapsody series basses. Would it be possible to swap the necks between a Dean Edge 8 and a Dean Rhapsody 12? If so, would it also apply to any Edge versus Rhapsody bass? Swapping bridges doesn't seem to be an issue, but...
