Why yes, I have one I bought new around 2005. I am very happy with it. Enough to have sold my dean acoustic/electric. The body on the stylist is thinner and it is just as loud unplugged. I had a shoulder injury at the time and this was less of a pain.
I shuffle my deans in and out of “currently hanging on the wall” status. The stylist has been in a case for the last year. Looks like I put it away dusty!
I am not the technical guy to ask questions of, but my brother who has been a professional bassist for 50+ years said that it was a “good” bass when I brought it to him to play.
I have had no issues with it. Just play.
About the only thing in my world that had been annoying would be the tendency to feedback under the loud circumstances which my band played and my closeness to my amp. That is normal with a hollow body.
It only cost about $275 new... I think it was a great price.
Happy new year all ! Started 2020 by buying this.
Not a dean, but there isn't a Lace club....lol

Yet another guitar launched at the beginning of the 2008 depression. I bet they sold very few. Lace was making pickups for fender when he started this venture, wonder how that went over.
The wife originally grabbed a used Austin, but one of the knobs had a short. Returned it today for this Dean
I had a set of fat beams that I wanted to put on my dean, but when I removed the first string from the envelope it was a good 4-5 inches longer than the original, what gives? Did I inadvertently order super long strings somehow?
Considering putting black strings on it but may go red for some extra pop against that silver.
Is that an Edge 09? I never knew they made a silver. They're pretty good for the money. Modded mine out and it's my number one.

It appears to be, single soapbar pickup 4 string. Same styling as an 09. I am new to basses so I may be overlooking a model, but it sure looks to be an 09 edge

Looks like a Dean Zone bass in Silver Metallic -model# ZOXMB MSL
After looking at some pics online I do believe you are correct. At first blush the 09 and zone look very similar
Yeah. I forgot the zone model. They are built a little better than the edge 09 in my opinion.
This is a question posed to the group as a whole. Is there anyone in here now, who owns a Dean, and wants to be a member of this club, but doesn't have a number? I think we are all waiting for @B-Mac to return, but he got removed in October. Yes the circumstances as to why he's gone are unclear. Maybe he will return somehow, or not. I know he's still out there on Basschat u.k or whatever that is called. So moving forward we need to make some decisions. I'm not really volunteering to run the group, mainly because I run 1-2 other groups and because there are people in this group that got here before me. I'm just stating that I think the last thing that @B-Mac would want would be fore this group to fall apart. I'ts kinda died like 3 times, but it's done pretty well this last time after @B-Mac took it over. Thoughts?
I reached out to @B-Mac, the admin here, via the other website he's on, and once we figure out the future of the group, you'll get a number. I believe that you are not the only person here who doesn't have a number. @Jimbowhit7, @58kites and @Ric5, you were here before me. Any input on current affairs? I'm sure there are other active members who have been here longer than I, but those 3 are the ones I remembered of the top of my head.

After some research, I believe that @Switched was the last person to become a member, issued number 205. Anyone after that probably doesn't have a number. Maybe I was wrong and only @Hawkwood76 needs a number. But If you need a number, reach out, and someone will probably take care of it. I reached out to @B-Mac on Basschat. I'm awaiting an answer.
