The **Dean Vengeance**, formerly known as the **Dean VMNT**, is a custom designed by [Dean Guitars](/source/Dean_Guitars) for [Dave Mustaine](/source/Dave_Mustaine). It was designed in cooperation with Mustaine in 2007. [1][2] Its design is based on the [Jackson King V](/source/Jackson_King_V) that Mustaine popularized in the 1990s.

In 2020, Mustaine announced his departure from Dean and joined [Gibson Guitars](/source/Gibson_Guitars) the following year. The guitar was quickly renamed and reintroduced as the "Vengeance."
