...on MLs? With Floyd..

had some free time so i decided to make a dime collage and then wanted to put a pic of him with vinney paul in it
hope you like it


i might make it better in the future

RIP Dime

I apologize if this has already been covered, but does anybody know anything about that ML that he had back in those old Randall ads? I was just watching the Pantera 3 Vulgar Videos from Hell and was reminded of it. It's got a reverse 6 on a side small headstock, reverse sharkfin inlays, and an epilepsy-inducing 80s multi-colored paintjob. What the hell is this?!

Wow, simply amazed how juvenile I was. And getting so angry over something so trivial.

I just got the new musicians friend catalog and it had the FBD guitars For 899


Whats up with these other guys trying to sell them for mass more

I met a guy who is the original owner of a Randall Century 200 II in mint condition with the original matching Randall 4x12 cabs with the Jaguar speakers. I am currently running an RG100ES into a Marshall cab with Vintage 30's and I was wondering if anyone here has had a chance to play the Randall cabs with Jaguar speakers. I am curious about how they sound.

I was a lil sceptical about getting the culprit because it didnt mean as much to me as the other dime guitars do, ......although i was pleasently surprised that washburn have made a very good guitar. - when it arrived it had one fine tuner screw missing.... so i pinched the one out of my randy rhoads jackson.... set the guitar up to how i like it...(some looney had it in drop tuning) reset the floyd and pickup height then all was perfect - now to try it out... wow just putting it over your head you feel how good a strap positioning it has then i plugged it into my new digitech ''death metal'' pedal and jangled about for a bit on clean fine tuning it....... then ...STOMP!!!! bloody ell who left the pedal level all the way up lol ...man this this has so much gain and crunch, dont know what pickups it comes with but they are chrome and polished like a mirror...they are good. - the harmonics on it are sharper and more murderous than my deans and confed's .....all in all - excellent guitar, only saw dime play one once tho cant wait to play it live. -.....im thinking hmmmm what dime guitar bargain will i find next i'll take some pics later if u guys are interested in my wash'rag lol - im not biased on the whole dean verses washburn thing ....cos if you can make any guitar even a pile o junk make good noises then u shouldnt care.... if you like a guitar you just like a guitar if its cheapo/well built or not.

does anyone know where to get pantera albums from before "cowboys from hell."

Anyone have any good detailed pictures of Dime's Confederate signature guitars?
Post them here, or give me a link!

Thanks alot!

PS! I am thinking of giving my Dime 333 bolt a new paint job, and would really like the confederate one, cuz the bolt job on the 333 series is not very good!

From Blabbermouth (I know a lot of folks here don't like the source, but it's news) :


KnuckleBonz, Inc. announced today their plans to create a Dimebag Darrell sculpture for the Guitar Hero limited edition collectible figure series.

The Guitar Hero series is a collection of rock's most highly praised guitarists, sculpted in great detail and cast in poly-resin. The series is designed to be a tribute to acclaimed guitarists who have made their indelible mark on music history. All figures in the series are officially licensed.

"He's pure, raw energy! Even now… and we want to make sure Dime shines forever louder, even more than before. He gave us all so much!" says Rita Haney, longtime girlfriend of the late Dimebag Darrell Abbott. "It's important that Dime be remembered in a way that his fans will appreciate. We feel this sculpture is a fitting way to remember his talent, his character, and his accomplishments."

The Dimebag sculpture will display the legend with his "Dean from Hell" Dean guitar. Each figure is hand-painted/numbered and displays a certificate of authenticity on the base of the sculpture. The Dimebag Darrell figure is only offered in a limited edition quantity of 3333 worldwide.

The KnuckleBonz artistic team is striving to capture the artist's likeness and his spirit through the medium of sculpture. Since the beginning of the series, requests from collectors worldwide have poured in for a Dimebag Guitar Hero.

"We are incredibly honored to be working with the family to create a meaningful tribute to Dimebag," states Tony Simerman, President and Creative Director of KnuckleBonz, Inc. "Like most of Dime's fans, I was introduced to his playing on 'Cowboys from Hell'. It started there, but I still say the 'power groove' on 'Vulgar Display of Power' is the most perfect metal since the first six SABBATH albums."

"When we first discussed the project with the family, they were pleased to know that the KnuckleBonz crew had a production meeting in late November of last year and determined Darrell was the best choice to be the 4th figure in the Guitar Hero series," says Simerman. "It was simply a matter of finding the best way to approach Dime. As we now know, that was just two weeks before his death. We recognize that this project is both an honor and a big responsibility."

Scheduled for release in fall 2005, the Dimebag sculpture will be available for pre-order in April 2005. The sculpture is currently in pre-production using highly skilled artists to capture a remarkable likeness of the celebrated guitarist.

Pricing and Availability: The Dimebag Darrell Guitar Hero limited edition sculpture will sell for $99 and can be purchased via www.guitarhero.net. Pre-orders will be accepted in April 2005. See the company's website for further details on pre-ordering and shipping information. Customers can subscribe to our email list to get more product information and exact dates for pre-orders and product availability by emailing info@guitarhero.net.

here's a lame question but one i must ask. as i've posted in different threads here i currently own a washburn Dime sig. and have ordered the FBD Tribute, so soon i'll have 2 ML body guitars. i haven't been able to find any guitar stands for them where i live. any suggestions?

goin to a BLS concert saturday, there selling a tribute shirt for dime, plus damageplan is going to be there. thought id show the picture of the shirt. it is so sweet



cant wait to get one

Anyone order one?

I put my order in for the preorder last month but haven't gotten them yet.

If you've gotten yours, how do you like it?

Manley posted this over on the DP.net boards. I think he found it on the Zakk Wylde boards....great video of Dime as a youngster, playing the famous ML. I hope it's not already posted here somewhere......Big file...prolly want to right click and save as...

Hello!
What riff plays dimebag on the 101 proof after the first refrain in the song cowboys from hell?

thx
Armin

sry bad english!

I was digging through my archives and found this picture that I took of the FBD at DOA.

It is cool how the flash glare came out... I originally had put this pic in the "bad pics" bin... but now that I look at it again, it is pretty cool.

does any one know what this tuning reads in hertz i think its 450 but im not sure does anyone here know how to contact grady

Well here it is, i hope this works coz i have no idea what im doing!
i gonna try anyway.

its allmost finished, maybe 1 more session.
Thought id put it up here to show all you Dimebag fans...........
GETCHA PULL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We'll I called my dealer a couple days ago to check the status on the Razorback deliveries and he said it is mid june for sure. I'm kind of bummed. When I ordered it back in February he told me between early May and mid June with a remote possibility of late april. He still has a great shop and hope to do business with him again, just a bummer. Now we have to wait till mid June!!!!

maybe you guys will understand why i am mad about this over here in the dimebag forum. I seriously hope that this guy is just tryin to mess with me.

why you be hatin on EMO. Emo saved rock music. Metal is trash and Deadbag Darrel was the worst guitarist. The best thing he ever did was switch to Washburn because deans suck taint.

p.s. don't be all biatchy at me for posting this.

i found this posted in the damageplan.net board just thought id post it if you havent seen this yet dime is amazing w/ the whammy action as usual

http://www.dallasentertainment.com/damageplan/solo.wmv

anybody got some animated avatars of Dimebag that I could "borrow" to use in other forums?thanks

Anyone posessing this DVD?

1. A Maroon ML
2. His dad gave it to him for his birthday?
3. The dean from hell

About the second one: Guitar World March issue

I'm going to buy a new amp, about 100W. I've played with the RH-100 and I've also tessted a Warhead signed by Dime, pure 200W. What do you think

I found another good pic in my archives. This is a picture of Dean Z with the first Razorback. He was explaining how he built it by hand in his garage using a Hardtail neck (note the inlays). This was a very pensive moment for all of us... it was hard to hold back the tears when Dean was talking about making that guitar for Dime....

Sorry about the giant pic... I wanted to keep the detail.

Is it made in the US or somewhere else?

I had an L-500xl in the bridge of my old prs along with a q-filter and the thing was unstoppable. but has anyone used both the dimebucker and the L-500XL? im getting an FBD and I want to know if its worth it to order another L-500XL before i get the guitar.

Still looks like James Hetfield to me

Does anyone one how to make a Blacktooth?

Great Innit

makes you wonder if this all could have been avoided. [/url]

Is the CFH wah signifcantly different than the 535 Q wah.I have a 535 Q,but was thinking of getting the CFH if it has a wider sweep,wilder sound,etc.The two look almost identical,with the exception of the paint job and the jack setups.I tried the Musician's Friend audio samples,but they don't give much as far as a realistic idea as to the difference.Any help you guy's could give would be appreciated.

Was just curious about how many here in the forum have ordered a DFH? How much are you paying for the guitar? guess it's in the pricerange of the Razorback rust...

Would be cool to make a thread with everyone posting a picture of themselves and the guitar when it arrives!

Cheers!

Yeah, i was thinking long time ago to get a Dime Tat, and in Dec 23 2004 got it.

Dime was a huge influence on my playing, back in 1990 i was like.. mmm what style to play? metal for sure but i like everythig.. y must decide, and listened to CFH,,, that was a blast!!..
Then in 93 i met the guys, Dime was very kind, he wore my band t-shirt for the whole show, that was amazing, even, we talked a lot after show, drinking and s#%t, he signed my Ibanez S540 and asked me how the hell i got the Jamez Hetfield signature on it too.. haha he was a very down to earth guy. Long story short, in 95 the came back to Argentina, and we came across (in an avenue) he remember us and we ended the night drinking again in a local club.
I was in heaven, i mean meeting your mentor and hero, and most of all, realizing that he´s like you, not a frippin snob.

well here´s the ink (i think ive posted it somewhere else before but wth)

I'm not sure if this is real, but it was posted on another message board. I figured you guys would want to see this. If it's real, it's kind of chilling, and sad ...........



http://dimebagdarrelltribute.com/gallery/remember/last_photo_of_dimebag

anybody have any pics of the paint job dean is going to be doing on the new DFH?

Hey Guys...... Just got my Black tooth grin tattoo today. thought I would post a pick here and see if anybody else has one. If you do post it on here! We could start the BTOA club

My best guess is David Allan Coe. anyone?

I need to a link to the website you buy one @?

It is the most br00tal sounding amp I have ever heard, I ve been playing it through my RG100 Cabinet with the Jaguars and it smokes, hope the matching 4 x 12 cabinet with the Celestion 30's that I have on the way sounds as good as the Jaguars. Good thing I didnt get the Triple Rectifier, I am more than pleased with this amp. Now that I have this I will be selling my Rg100 head and cabinet, more than likely it will go on ebay, it is in VERY good condition. If anyone is interested I will be posting it up as soon as I get my X2 Cabinet, or PM me.

Can anyone post pics of all the dime magazine covers that they know of? I am trying to collect all of them and any help would be awsome!

Anybody have any? Audio or video? I can trade, but only have Metallica audios (I know they aren't very popular around here , but thats all I have for Bootlegs) Thanks!

over theweekend i worked on a drawing of dime and here is how it came out
hope you like it



enjoy



did another one..its like a sillouette of him infront of his amps; came out alright. i might play around with photo editing

Does anybody know what nationality or nationalities Dime was? I've been intrigued by this for a while now

Does anyone know why or where I can find out what happen between Big Val and Vinnie and Dimebag...I remember I read That Val shoved Vinnie at a Ozzfest, but never new why...Thanks

Nice one

Hello!
Man..... does anyone know how dimebag made this badass noise?
I have the Riffermadness and i can do all other squeals but, at the last one i suck! Can anyone discribe me the technique in other words, because my english is not very well!

Thank you very much!

Armin

jus went on to the main page and In This River was playin by Black Label and with the vid/slideshow behind of dime jus brought out the waterworks again

I was just informed by the company I purchased my FBD from that the wait is 3 months. Maybe its just for this particular company but does anyone know the real scoop here?

A while back there was a thread that asked for us to place votes for dimebag to be voted as "the greatest american" I saw a couple commercials for this contest on TV and I've been getting restless to see who wins. Does anybody know when they are airing it?

who is singing in the song suicide note part one, cause it doesn't sound like phil. it might just be that im not used to him singing in a non metal kind of voice, but i just don't know.

I've played a Randall RH-100 and it was pure plug in and stand the f@ck up! See, you have to buy a head and a cabinet also. So I decided trying the Line 6 Spider II 150W. This Line 6 emulators are really crrrrrazzzzzy!!!








Booooooooozzzzzzeeeeee!!!

I have a DIME 333 that i just set up for zakk wylde boomers (.060 e string!) for playing in drop c. it'll take some getting used to for sure cuz i've been using d'addario 10's. anyone know where i can find DIME'S DR .009-.050 strings for under $6.00? the guys at "string this" said that was the best they could do even in bulk order and i'm thinking of using them on my new warrior. i got 12 sets of the zakk boomers for like $50.00 total. any help would be most appreciated.

will dean be making any of the other dime designs he had drawn? because one of the guitars was a dean dimeslime and i would LOVE dean to make that thing!

Getcha pull!!!!!!!

I just bought a randall rg100 american made head and should have it at home by mid next week. Was wondering if anyone has some setting suggestions? Thanks

i have the most greatest idea ever. it came to me in a dream. i was thinking that if everybody in this forum just brought their bands and guitars to texas and played a huge tribute tribute concert. nothin but pantera and damageplan. would that be freakin awesome!!!

hey this is the god of the undead a.k.a. the Undead God I'm frackin new here so hows it goin. Right now I got a baby ML and I'm getting a slime bee razorback soon. I got a band going and if there is anyone in the gurnee illinois area who wants to hit up a show just contact me later.

I finally got to try both amps out

X2 was good but not what I expected not too much gain and no bottom end compared to my RH200. Setup pretty straight forward which is a plus but still.


Rh200G2SC

This is one of the best amps ever they took RH200 already badass amp and made 10 times better

The Gain Tone the sound dear god.

Shred like crazy on it

plus the addtition of the voicing switch made it that much better

Hands down the best amp in my opinion for balls to the wall metal with a shred twist.

I will be purchasing one soon

Plus the good thing is I live in Washington

I play it in canada so I will be taking advantage of our money being worth more


price new was 459.99

Figure it will be about 369 to 379

I found this Dime interview. Sorry if its been posted before. Heres the link http://www.smnnews.com/interviews/damageplan.php the guy spells some things wrong like Darrell and Krank but its a pretty good interview.

Hi, I have a couple of complete Pantera shows on video and I would like to exchange them with other people who have some too. They were originallyt on VHS, but I all transfered them to DVD. I have concerts from different periods, covering all the albums and tours they did. Most of them are amateur, but one is professional, plus few TV appearances as well.

If you are interested in exchanging, contact me: huu_bac@hotmail.com

Chao

hey im trying to make my own razorback paint jobs but have no idea how to
Can someone help me like tell me how to do this in photoshop

I was just on ebay and saw somebody selling a ticket stub from the concert the night of Dime's death. Man this s#%t is really starting to piss me off!!!!!!!

Last day we were performing live here in Athens dude in front of 500 persons. We played a Tribute show in memory of Darrell. As I was ripping the stage, I heard the audience screaming Dimebag and I felt great. I felt it was an honour to hold his guitar and play some of the greatest riffs ever!!!!

You guys seen the 81 dean ml on ebay? pretty damn sweet!

Just watchin the Ozzfest show from 2000 this morning for the umpteenth time, what a monster they were live. I'm realy pissed that I won't ever get to experience that again, and that my kid's will never have that opportunity. Everyone have a good week.... Peace

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Music-instruments/Instruments/Guitar-bass/Electric-guitars/auction-25209598.htm

Have any of you guys seen this posting? Check out what this guy is selling and let me know what you guys think? Is it real?
Could it be? Is he just a jerk trying to make a few bucks?

Thanks.
Vince

anyone have or know of any vids from the power metal album? ive got some 84' footage from the "projects" days, wich is awesome, but just thinking if those vids are floatin around thier must bee some stuff from power metal(87') out there. thats a gret album btw.

man, some people are unbelievable. I was bidding on the 1981 dean on ebay. The price was 500 something when I started bidding. I had to go up to a thousand bucks before It would let me be high bidder. So I get out bid by a couple of people, and don't bid again. Then I get an email from some guy,boy, who said, quit jacking the price up dumbass. He shouldn't have emaild me since he wasn't selling, and I was not buying anything from him. I responded back quite snappy since the guy was insulting me. He then email back saying, you don't know anything and it shows. Then, not knowing what was going on, and wanting to chill the situation out I email him back several times, being very polite, but ignored. I then reported him to the ebay people. I don't know if that guy is on this forum, but if you go by the name exo-metal and your email is phaserunner@hotmail on ebay, have the guts to post back, because I would like to understand why you insult me for no reason and get this attitude with me for just bidding. You guys ever have this happen to you? I felt like the guy was threatning me not to bid.

i forgot where i saw this( i thinka magazine) but there is supposed to be a damageplan box set comming out with deamageplans home video amageplans second album( uncompleted i think) damageplans first album and over 30 PREVEOUSLY UNRELEASED PANTERA TRACKS!!! if anybody else has any info on this( like the release date) please feel free to post it

Whats the funniest thing youve heard about dimebag? funniest thing hes done... whats the one thing that dime said thats stuck in your mind?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=41435&item=7318120999&rd=1

Well boys it did not take long for one of these to end up on Ebay. The freakin' guitar has not even hit the streets and look at what has already happened.
Isn't there a rule that Dean Dealers can't be doing this sort of thing on Ebay. This is not any old guitar we are talking about, this is a DFH! Dean should take his allocation away from him and give it to another dealer.
This is just straight up BS I say..


Vince.

Does someone know how many songs from the Ozzfest 2000 we can watch? Just want to make sure i've got them all. right now have only three: CFH, Primal and Yesterday Don't Mean s#%t.

Wich one sounds better and in what way?

OMG!!!! i just got my hands on dimebags "riffer madness" that is my new bible. i would have neveer thought about reading on how to play guitar but this book is freakin awesome. if you dont have it GET IT!!!!!!

i no it was on the main page a while ago and i think i saw someone post where u can listen to it but i cant remember where it was any1 know where it is or if some one can post it it would be great. thanks

Well, the rg100(es) showed up today! This might sound like a stupid question, but how do you switch the channels? Is it footswitch only or is there another way? Mine did not come with a footswitch, so I might be screwed for a while. I have not had a chance to plug it in yet, but am anxious to get home from work and crank it up! It is one of those old carpeted rg100's, so now all I need to get in a furman pq3-4, either one. Thanks guys!

How long had Dunlop been making these with the new casing?Looks kinda cool.Think I may order one...

Just wondering if anyone has played a dimebag washburn with the alien graphix painted on the front? If so, how does it compare to the 333 series washburns? just wondering.

what did dime use for the firts part of the floods solo. (and for all of you literal people out there, i know he used a guitar.) i mean like peddle wise.

I just had a thought about the Crest shirts. Anyone else think they'd look awesome on a workshirt with the dean logo on the left breast above the pocket?

If anyone out there is wanting to play Dime's music and need direction on where to find the gear he used and the settings, follow this link.............

I had never met Dimebag in my life, but I felt as he was my bro!!
I wish I woudld have the chance to visi t his grave and pay my "dues"(it's not the right word but who cares!!!).
I created this topic, so that all my bros could write down their
experiences and feelings about our heroe, bro and excellent human being....

you know how he had the krank amps/ dean guitar logos on the back of his shirt. I think they should sell like an iron on version of the dean logo so you could make your own.
