Summary: This Dean Dave Mustaine Rust in Peace VMNT was masterminded by Dave Mustaine in conjunction with Dean’s master guitar builders.

Other Rust In Peace features include a 25-1/2″ scale length, Ebony fingerboard, tune-o-matic bridge, Seymour Duncan Dave Mustaine Live Wire active humbucker pickups and the guitar’s string-through-the-body design produces outstanding sustain. The dual volume, single tone, and 3-way switch is the control configuration that Dave prefers. This guitar ships with the Rust In Peace Funko Pop figure, strap and picks.
