Got my third geet today! and i absolutely love it, but pr0n first, talk later
Washy Slime!
and its getting along with its Dean cousins just fine
This guitar is so awsome, ive wanted a slime for a long time and this one is perfect. I always got the impression the stock washburn pickups sucked ass, but i actually really like them, and imo they are smoother than the bill lawrence pups. The V neck is a little different to the one on my DFH, not quite as sharp a V, its a very comfortable neck for sure.
I only have one problem with the guitar and it is a small one, the toggle switch is the opposite way round compared to my Deans, on the Deans flick the switch closer to the body and your using the neck pup, away from the body selects the bridge. On the Washy its the opposite way round, its probably easy to change (just rewire it) but like I said its nothing major so im not gonna bother.
I have set the guitar up in C standard as I will be playing all my In Flames style 'death metal' stuff on it, had a quick 20 minute play earlier and it sounds fantastic. i dont think im gonna bother changing the pups (may still put a '59 in the neck, undecided yet) but the bridge pup sounds really great, so imo if its not broke dont fcuk with it! Many thanks goes to rridner for this awesome geet! I love it!
Anyone wanna record there rigs and post it ill post mine i just wonder how close everyone else is .I think I have nailed dimes tone.As soon as i can get a recording ill post it .Maybe we could all record the same riff ,any ideas?

please let me know what you think, its been really hard to find a good tab of this song, all of them seem to have bits which are totally wrong, and other bits which are dead on, so ive used 2 or 3 tabs including the official tab book to get this song down, so here it is. i did make a few mistakes, and completely murdered the solo, but i get nervous in front of a mic  some bits are probably wrong too, as i couldnt get a decent tab, anyways please leave me feedback
Pantera Live Intro needed
Hi,
I just wanted to ask if someone of you got the Pantera Intro.

LA Ink epi with Rita Haney
Hey guys,
I just saw the promo for next weeks LA ink and Rita is on that episode. They showed the stencil on her arm of the Tat of Dime and I cant wait to see the finished tat. It ought to look pretty cool. From the quick view i saw its going to be a nice one. I know we were all chatting about the episode so I figured I would give a heads up for it.
Randall RG170ES (C170) problem!
The Randall of a friend of mine arrived today.
He turned it on and :
1.When he plays in the overdrive channel, you can still hear the clean channel in it, on every volume.
2.The amp doesn't get louder in the distance between 0 and 2 on both channels (master volume).
We don't know if that is a problem or if it's a normal thing.
We use a ''voltage transformer'' cause we live in Germany. (220v)
Thanks for help
hey bros,
i will do my own cut-out FBD replica so I will appreciate if you would tell me how much is the size of this guitar (dimensions).
thanks in advance.

i also have a story on discovering dime/pantera! very long!
sorry, this is gonna be very long!  Growing up, the only music i knew was oldies and the type of radio stations where they played a variety. My parents got divorced when i was 10, and my dad got remarried when i was 12. They were really strict! Then when i was a freshmen age 14 or 15, we lived in California a real short time. I remember there was these 2 guys on the bus. One who always wore Metallica, and one who always wore Pantera. They would always say one was better than the other. I had no clue at this time. Then like the day before i moved this girl i knew had me listen to her headphones, and it was the beautiful people by manson. i was like wow, what is this music? so then i ran into a few more ppl. who were manson freaks, and i became one, but i hid it from my dad and step-mom! then when i was a sophmore age 16, my dad finally let me live w/ my mom, who let me get away w/ just about anything! i made metalhead friends, started smoking weed, drinking, and got into more bands. the only bands i had known and liked so far was manson, iron maiden, megadeth. maybe a few more. i had to go to summer school after 10th grade, and this black guy had a pantera shirt on. i was confused becuz i thought black ppl. were into rap. i never saw one in a band t-shirt. after class i told him i heard of pantera but never heard their s#%t, if they were any good. he said %$#@! yeah, i'll bring u a tape tomorrow! so like he said, the next day he gave me a tape w/ the great southern trendkill. i was in shock w/ my mouth hanging open! it blew my mind, especially dime's guitar playing. i was like "manson who?" they became my fave. from there on out. (in less than a month i'll be 25, and this was when i was 16) a local band in school was friends w/ this guy and i went to their shows all the time my junior year. they played metallica, iced earth, megadeth, pantera, and a few of their originals. they did the covers awesomely. my first moshpit was strength beyond strength. frackin' awesome! the guitarist of the band told me that pantera were coming to do an in store signing for reinventing the steel, at hastings, in victoria, tx, where we lived. everyone i knew was gonna be there, cutting class if it was on a school day, then at the last minute, they cancelled due to touring conflicts. i think i cried. i know a few of my friends did! then a few months later, they were coming to corpus christi, tx for a show. i had a ticket, but something came up, and i didn't get to go. i regret that now! then, i heard that pantera broke up, and i didn't know that vinnie and dime created damageplan! when i was w/ my ex, june of 2004, he was a carni, and this ex-tattoo artist, had a homemade gun, and he was doing tats on ppl. i told him i wanted one, and i said pantera w/ the c.f.h. symbol. it was really late at night, so he rushed it. the pantera was in cursive, and the n looked like an m. the c.f.h. wasn't perfect, but i didn't care. i was happy to just have that on my arm! i had digital cable at this time, and always listened to the unsensored metal channel. i heard "pride" by damageplan, but didn't know who it was, but i kept saying to myself that the guitar riff sounded very pantera/dimebagish. then one day, my ex comes home crying saying dimebag is dead. i was like what? he said he heard it on the radio! i turned on the t.v. on mtv and vh1 and didn't hear s#%t! i was pissed off! i was like, "if it was michael jackson or brittany spears, it would've been all over the freakin' news!" then maybe 2 days later, i saw it on mtv w/ kurt loder. i cryed my frippin eyes out! i couldn't believe it! he had been my favorite guitarist for awhile. he was the reason i liked the home videos so much! the reason i wanted to meet and see pantera in concert so much! i never got over it for quite some time! i started collecting pictures, stories, magazines, out the ass. i have about 3, 3-ring binders full! i then got new found power. when it got to pride, i started flipping out! i was like " so i did hear a song by them before he died! i knew that was dimebags guitar playing! i was so happy! then i got my tattoo fixed professionally! pantera in black (how it's supposed to look). and had added underneath it :
R.I.P.
"DIMEBAG"
DARRELL ABBOTT
1966-2004
then in june of 05 i got his portrait done, professionally. then the same homemade tattoo artist done the kiss army patch becuz dime was a huge kiss fan, and wrote cowboys from hell around the c.f.h. and wrote dimebag around the top of the portrait. and the razorblade necklace that says damageplan. then another guy did flames around the cowboys from hell, and did a purple lightning bolt dime guitar, and did darrell underneath the portrait. some of the tats need fixing. it turned out to be a whole sleeve, but i'm happy w/ it! i get alot of compliments! about october of 2005, i met my future fiancee billy, online. i went to adult profiles on yahoo, and typed in dimebag darrell, and a long list of fans popped up! i saw his profile, which said r.i.p. dimebag, and his picture, and from tx! i wrote him told him how i felt about dime, my tats, and that i was trying to go to the 1st annual dimefest 05, in arlington. he wrote back, then we wrote back and forth, then talked on the phone, then met. we both got tickets, and we've been together ever since! we got to meet rita at dimefest, and a few tears slid down her cheeks when i showed her my tats! she told me some stories, gave me a big hug and kiss on the cheek! i was so thrilled to meet her. one of the closest ppl. to dime! then we saw hellyeah at the family values tour a few months ago. i was pretty close to the stage. i finally got to see vinnie rock out on the drums. i screamed my ass off! then he threw his drumstick at the end of the set! it went over billy's head, and him and about 3 other ppl. had a deathgrip on it for almost the whole time till the next band came on! no one gave in, so they ended up breaking it in 4 parts so each person could have some. we have the best part. the vic firth logo and the notches that vinnie puts in the stick for some reason. u can see it in pictures sometimes! sorry this was so long, but i wanted to say how i feel! i have some pics of my tats, one pic at dimefest, and one of the stick. if anyone wants these, i'll post them!

Went to Dimes grave... w/ pic.
by emunder on Sun Oct 14, 2007 5:59 am
Finally got up to see the man's final resting place. I have to admit when I walked up to the grave for the first time it just set me back a step. Just kinda stood there for a second thinking about listening to Pantera in the 90's and going to their shows. Sucks to think that you'll never get to see him live again. I wanted to take a few pics but it turned out that my camera battery was dead. Anyway....pretty cool to go check it out.

Looking for a pic
by Bullet on Tue Oct 16, 2007 5:00 am
Does anyone have a pic of Dime playing the DFH, with the headstock broken off, or a perhaps a vid on Youtube of it.
Please help me
by Zadel on Tue Oct 16, 2007 10:06 pm
It is possible that not understand me well, I am from Spain and do the possible thing for writing in English for a problem that I have.
I have just bought the guitar of my dreams, the Dean from hell, but I have seen that has a free cable and produces a horrible sound.
It's a white cable,the rest they seem likely,but this cable is free and i don't know where is soldering.
Anybody have a Dean From hell and can help me?
If someone could say to me since(as,like) there go the cables of his(her,your) guitar welded, or at least this white(target) great express.
I have tried to find a scheme of as the wiring of the two pickups goes (zebra and Lawrence) but not it encounter!
The store this in another one country, request by computer.
The cable I imagine that of the pickup of the neck (zebra) because in the other volume there are a white cable and this free white cable is near the volume of the zebra pickup (I think..)
Oh my English is horrible!!! Maybe don't understand me
Thank you very much friends of guitars

COULD be a possible repost, but what isnt??
DOM/HOLLOW.
Phil's little talk at the beginning... if only he'd stayed that way. THAT is the Phil that I like and wish had stayed that way during those days. Maybe we'd be expecting a new Pantera album today, and I'd never been posting this in the "Dimebag Darrell Tribute Area" in the first place.

dime costume question
by rridner on Tue Oct 30, 2007 10:46 pm
I am gonna be Dime tonight - for the 2nd Halloween in a row. I have question about my costume this time around. More of an opinion, really....
Do I wear my Washburn hat or my BLS hat?
Put aside that you may hate Washburn or BLS.....which one do you think will fit the costume better? Thanks

Paul Stanley (my girlfriend)
RG80ES Squeal at high vol.
Anyone else have this problem?
When playing at bedroom levels on channel two, with a boost pedal, everything is ok as long as I stay under 2 on the vol knob.
When playing band practice levels on channel two, with a boost pedal, 4-5 on the vol knob = crazy squeal/high pitch noises.
so far the only solution has been to just boost the clean channel with the boost pedal.... but that's not THE sound I want. Not dirty enough. I also have to run a noise supressor between my guitar and the amp to help with feedback.
oh, and I'm using emg's 81/85
