Washburn Stealth
The Washburn stealth was a guitar designed by Dimebag Darrell Abbott Of Pantera and Damageplan and put in production by Washburn guitars from 2000-2004. The guitar was based on the Dean Guitars ML body shape but with sharper points. In 2008, Dean started to produce a cheap imitation of the Washburn Stealth following Dime and Washburn's designs.
ST-Pro
The St-Pro, or Stealth Pro was a second import Steath model Washburn started manufacturing during 2003/2004. It featured a Set Neck and Mahogany body like the USA made Stealth's. All USA specs and hardware were used, except they went with the USA Dime3 offset headstock instead of the symmetrical stealth headstock. Finishes came in Transblack and Cherryburst.
