If i was to get a customized Dean?? Could they do a Volute headstock like the Dime 3???? I know they have limited ways to customize a guitar to keep the Dean originality but can they???

im picking mine up tomorrow

im going to cream myself

Just got the proto in a couple days ago and today's been the first sunny day, so here goes. It's one of the new FM333s with the improved neckjoint and '3' body shape. The weird body shoulder on the previous runs are gone and the cutaway is awesome...it's like a Dime3 but made overseas. Nice weight @ 10lbs, Schaller Floyd, Dimebucker/59, set maple neck/fretboard with a soft V shape, jumbo frets, Buzz Feiten, etc, just like all the others. The only things I've changed so far are to relocate the upper strap button to correct a bit o' neck heaviness and to remove the foamy crap from under the bridge. It was actually fighting the bridge trying to come back to 'zero', causing tuning problems. Other than that, it's a steal! These runs are getting better all the time, but watch for prices to increase as the US dollar continues to die slowly...

This is just a different-optioned version of MDZA's busted Slime. Nice, nice, nice guitar.







Still got the diamond volute on these:


Relocated button:




squeaky clean fretwork:

Six days from today will mark the three year anniversary that the world lost Dimebag Darrell Abbott.

Now I KNOW that all of you are making plans in ways to pay tribute, I want to know what everyone is doing! Going to any tribute shows? is your band playing that night? Maybe just having a jam at the house with all your friends, hanging out, and having some Blacktooth Grins!? WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

Me personally, I think we are all going to hang out, drink, watch the Pantera Videos, Dimevision, and just have a good night in remembrance to someone special that was taken away from us all way before his time.

I made this collage tonight, spent a few hours on it and thought I would share it with everyone. The actual picture is a little bit bigger, but photobucket limits the size..



GETCHA PULL!!

so what are the major differences between the mxr 6 band and 10 band eq?

btw, first post, sorry if this question has been asked a million times.

This tattoo...


based off of Chad Lee's photo...




While searching for Dime pics on google, I found this interesting one that was not taken by Chad Lee, check it out. Just something to look at and go.. hey! thats kinda cool.



But we all know Chad takes the BEST pictures!!

First of all cheers to all of you!im an huge fan of Dime's legacy and its a pleasure to post on a forum dedicated to the true GUITAR LEGEND that Dime was and still IS! ive seen a picture of Dimebag in southpark and i was wondering if any of you can tell in wich season and episode Dime appears. thank you and sorry for bad english. The Legend Lives!!\m/

overall wich band do u like better..???

http://www.metalmonthly.com/Rita.html

anyone ever tried it? i am going to go get one a a pawn shop tomorrow. i had that amp that is at the pawn shop for a short while. it was a friends. i remember slay said it was more hard-edged sounding like a century200.......what i remember is the clarity lotsssss of clarity..

......A Vulgar Display of Power: Courage and Carnage at the Alvilla Rosa by Chris A. It was actually a very well written book that was based on the facts of that tragic night and provided alot of information on the people involved. It not only goes through the issues with Nathan Gale but it also goes through the life stories of Jeff Thompson (Mayhem), Erin Halk, & Nathan Bray. They paid the ultimate price trying to protect Dime and in Nathan Bray's case he wasn't even part of the staff but just a dedicated fan trying to protect his guitar hero. Being that Dime was/is my favorite guitar player it was hard to read through the events of the murder but I guess as a fan you always have questions about whether or not it could have been prevented or whatever and this pretty much puts those questions to rest. Alot of people say or think that heavy metal fans are lower forms of society but even the detectives said that in all of their years they have never seen a bunch of more cooperative people when it came to making statements or answering questions for the investigation. And many of them risked their own lives to stay in the club when the shootings were happening to help the band, staff, and other fans either find a safe exit or provide first aid to the people that were shot even as Gale was still armed and only a few feet away. Hearing sh!t like that makes me proud about the life I lead, the way I look, and being involved in listening and playing heavy music. Anyway......there are things in there that will make you smile and things that will make you want to cry but it was a good read and I couldn't put it down.

Is this the book that the Abbott family didn't approve of? This is the first time I've seen this book.They're doing pre-sales of it at Amazon.

http://www.amazon.com/Black-Tooth-Grin-Dimebag-Darrell/dp/0306815249/ref=cm_cr_pr_sims_t

ive herd from meny different people that rg100s get very little gain

please tell me otherwise

this is not dime but today would have been randy rhoads 51st birthday......maybe dime is raising a glass with him now.......they both were taken from us too soon, but they live on inside us all

hey guys
My new guitar arrived today.
It's a Washburn Dime 333 Trendkill.










Best regards

In my weekly Musician's Friend E-mail news they have the Week In Review Section that highlights things that happened that week in musical history.I guess the decided it would be cute to talk about people's deaths like this..Cooke Capped … Lennon Lost … Dimebag Dusted …
Seems like a callous play on words to me.Talking of people's deaths is not something that should be made light of.

Thats got to be one of the best drawn pics of Dime ive ever seen. I thought this had a rightful place here.

Does anyone know which newer Randall head is capable of getting the Dimebag style tone the best? I love my tube Randall head, but I also want a solid state head for the Pantera stuff I play. The Randalls ive been looking at are the RH150G3 and the RX120D. The RX120D is pure solid state, and the RH150G3 is valve dynamic (1 tube in the preamp) would either of these amps be capable of Pantera-esk goodness? I have a 10 band eq which I could use in the loop of either of these amps if I needed to

You know that to do.

Dime, you'll always be missed! Just downed a blacktooth grin while listening to Hollow. Hollow always reminds me of Dime the most for some reason.

"He came to rock...
and Rocked like no other,
with the heart twice the
size of Texas, our beloved
brother. Companion, mentor,
idol, and friend...
We love you Dime...
Until we meet again"

R.I.P. Brother

The world lost a genuine human being Dec. 8th, 2004. I hope you all, Pantera/Damageplan fan or not, pay tribute to the fallen legend in one way or another.

Whats do you think the best song that tributes Dime

I reckon it's Hollow

Awesome licks and very moving for me

So I wrote a few stories today to go along with these pictures. I peck when I type & it took me forever! Then, I lost the stories on the computer! (messed up) So i really wanted to post these today, so AT LEAST, here's the pictures! I know that these are not out there because they are from my personal pictures & I had to actually take a picture of the pictures to get them on the computer! I'm pretty sure that both pictures were taken by Stu Taylor. One was in killeen, Texas & the other was in Darrell's garage. Storys soon to follow!
BLOW IT UP!!!

In this video, watch carefully at 00:29 - 00:30

I didnt notice it before. Sorry if many of you allready have.

Theres a story that I have always wanted to tell, but did not feel right talking about it until the cat had been "offically" let out of the bag. Well, Rita did an interview and talked about the Van Halen connection, so now I can go ahead and elaborate on what she told about. I can tell you, that Rita herself could write an encyclopedia of stuff that had to do with Eddie since the day that Darrell got to meet his hero. You could really have no idea of the concern that Eddie showed for the situation unless you were there, & he worked with Rita for nintey nine percent of the time. But the girl is crazy busy, she keeps it that way to to keep the pain & sorrow at bay as best she can. So I'll tell the story as someone who was there for all the events that I speak of.
As a note, there are a few things that were printed in the interview that people could possibly take the wrong way, & I want to make sure that does not happen.

This story is sad, cool, crazy, & ITS ABOUT YOU DARRELL!!!

As most of you know, Vince & Darrell had finally got to meet the Halen brothers just mere days before there was a reason for this tribute section. They REALLY hit it off, & became fast friends overnite! A very rare thing if you know anything about the Halen camp.
I keep having (in my head) to dance around Dec. 8th, so I will just start from here...
My other half & I went up to Darrells on the 10th, & when we got there Rita was there all by herself. It just happened that way, & I know Darrell had something to do with it. He had told me things that he wanted me to tell Rita (mainly how much he loved her & that she was his "best friend in the world") "Dude, shes like a dude with no balls, the best of both worlds." He used to sit and talk to me for hours on end about Rita. Literally. So we had a few hours of calm & silence to talk. Except for one thing. The phone. Someone kept calling, & it was Eddie Van Halen, & he was concerned.
In one of their many discussions, Eddie had asked if they were going to bury Darrell with a guitar, & if so, what was the story behind it? Did he have a favorite guitar? He was just wondering, & trying anything he could to help them thru this very hard time. Well, Vince & Rita had talked about this, & had a nice idea...
On the tour that VH was out on, Eddie was taking a guitar everyday, painting it up & "Frankensteining" it, playing it during the show, & then selling it on ebay. He was doing it to raise money for chairity, ALL the money (every fuking cent) raised from the sales went to chairity. And it was alot. I seem to remember the guitars were going for around $18000.00 or so. Well, Darrell had told everybody that he wanted to buy one of those guitars off of ebay.
This was his chance to have a real Eddie Van Halen guitar. So watch for a black & yellow one. Keep in mind that he had said that just days before all this happened. So Rita told Eddie That Darrell had planned on buying one of his guitars off of ebay, & that he was REALLY excited about it. Now the big favor they wanted to ask, was if Eddie would "stripe one up" & sell it to them, although there was no ebay auction at the time. SHE OFFERED TO PAY MORE THAN DOUBLE WHAT THE MOST EXPENSIVE ONE HAD SOLD FOR! SHE INSISTED!!! They did not want it for free, they wanted to pay for it & they were more than happy to get one of the generic guitars that he was doing up, it didn't matter if it had been played, it just needed to come from him. So he finally relented (he insisted they did not have to pay for it) & asked what the guitar would look like that he had said he wanted. A black one with yellow stripes. So he told her, okay, I'll take care of it. Man, that was so cool! Darrell would get one of those guitars yet! We all hoped he would bring it, but didn't count on it. Either way it would get there, & Darrell would be buried with one of his biggest hero's guitars!

Well, a few days later we are at the funeral home, & standing by the door kind of greeting people as they walk in. Well, somebody walks in carrying a beat up old guitar case, and it's Eddie Van Halen, all by himself. We had no idea he was coming, & here the dude was! Eddie Van Halen himself! With an old beat up guitar case! No security, no nothin, JUST A @#$% COOL DUDE!!! Vince, Rita, Cat & a few others were in another room, so we took Eddie over there to see them. He walks in, greets everybody, & sets the case on the table. Here ya go man...
The case is opened and WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, its a black guitar with yellow stripes, but it's not new...
ITS HIS ORIGINAL @#$% GUITAR!!!!!!!!!! Not a copy, not a whatever, THE BLACK STRAT WITH THE YELLOW STRIPES!!!!!!!
Whats even crazier, is that he had asked her several times if she meant the red guitar with stripes, which used to be the white guitar with black stripes, WHICH WAS HIS FIRST @#$% GUITAR!!!!!!!!!! EDDIE VAN HALEN WAS READY & WILLING TO GIVE HIS FIRST @#$% GUITAR, POSSIBLY ONE OF THE MOST FAMOUS GUITARS IN THE WORLD, TO BE BURIED WITH DARRELL ABBOTT!!!!???? A MAN THAT HE HAD ONLY KNOWN RECENTLY, FOR A FEW HOURS!!!!!!!
No one knew what to say, or what to think for that matter. When one of your biggest heros, a man who you do not even know, comes to see you & gives to you one of his most personal & prized possessions, does that happen very often? Eddie Van Halen is not an easy nut to crack, one of the hardest. But there was something that this influential person had seen in someone in a very short time that compelled him to this level. That someone was Darrell.
Man, I remember thinking, we used to ride our bikes past here (what used to be an empty field). We used to go to "Jam A" or "Jamacia" at four or five in the morning after getting back in town after a gig, cruzing in Darrells "Bird" while listening to Billy Idol or the Scorpions & we would drive right by this place. I just thought, how did we get here? You never could have imagined such a scenario...
So during the funeral, a few things go on & then people would get up & talk. Eddie would get up, talk for awhile, sit back down, a few minutes later would get back up, talk for awhile, sit back down, I truly cannot remember how many times he did this, it was so many. But one of the craziest things he had to say, was revealed to all...
"You know, people call me, & they leave messages, & I just erase them, I don't even listen to them. My brother can leave me a message, & I won't listen to it, just erase it. I don't listen to messages. I never have."
"But you know what?" "Darrell called me, & left me a message. And you know what I did? I listened to it. And I don't listen to messages. As a matter of fact, he left me seveal messages, and I listened to them." "But I did something else that I would never even think of doing, & I have no idea why. I SAVED the messages he left me, & I would just listen to them. I have never saved a message in my entire life, ever. But I SAVED the messages that Darrell left me! As a matter of fact!!!" He got really excited. Pulled his phone out of his pocket, had alot of trouble using it, (it took a few minutes) & then proceeded to play Darrells messages to him thru the microphone. Everyone could hear the excitment & joy in Darrells familiar voice. I think every person in that room was crying.
I just thought, what a trip. Here we are at DARRELLS funeral and Eddie Van Halen is here all excited playing his messages Darrell left him and Darrell is in Gene Simmons KISS casket and WTF???????
How did we get here?

I wanted to get up & say something, felt that I should. But all that I could think of was that there was nothing to say. There was nothing that I could say about Darrell that everyone there did not already know a thousand times over. That he was a great friend. That he was an Honorable person. That he lived a life of Grace. That he was a great human being. The best. He was Darrell Abbott.


I LOVE YOU DARRELL. I HOPE I DO YOU JUSTICE YOU buddy!!!

BLOW THAT EDDIE VAN HALEN GUITAR UP!!!

Just wondering why Dimes favorite number is 333? Or any info about it that anyone knows. Thanks for whatever you know.

How?

if this dude had a dfh tat on the right arm and others, i would've thought he was dime, but i was like wtf dime infront of a keyboard? here's the picture, his nose is a tad bit pointer and longer, but s#%t it, i had to take like 3 looks, to make sure lol


spotted it on some chick's myspace, had to share.

Hi All

Thought I'd mention the Dimebag tribute day, held in a local venue in my town in Southwest England:

http://www.myspace.com/plymouthdimefest

Organised by a local muso for local Dime fans. A few bands on the bill, some local and some spending some time on the road to be there. A great evening out it was!! Normally a fairly 'reserved' music scene in terms of heavier music, people generally get moving at crap bars with bands playing usual mainstream covers. But, thanks in no small part to a few beers I'm sure, the night got kicking early on and all the bands got some good support. Several chants of 'Dimebag! Dimebag! Dimebag!' between tunes, great stuff. Last band of the night (Internal Conflict) is as good a heavy band as I've seen recently. Their own material is very good and they GET the Pantera vibe, all that power, groove and attitude. Seen a few Pantera covers/tribute bands recently but this lot have definitely been the best. Still no 'by demons' though, I GOT to hear someone nail that tune some time!

I guess this is the first time I've been into a band or musician to be genuinely saddened and moved at their death. Cliff Burton was a big loss, but I was young then and nowhere near as into Metallica as I would get so didn't really think much on it until a few years later. But Dimebag.... well, I don't mind admitting to getting emotional about it a few times recently. I'll finish off with a quote from the Dimefest organiser, I think it sums up my own feelings as well as those of so many others very well:

"Dimebag may be dead in body, but he is alive and kicking in all our hearts and memories. Long Live The King."

RIP Dime.

Hey guys, I'm thinking of getting the DFH/CFH import, and I know they have a v-neck, but the only v-neck I've had experience of was an old Ovation bowlback acoustic.
I just wanna know, what are your opinions on v-necks and what are they like for fast playing?

To me something is just wrong with this!

here is Pron of my current guitars.



ok sorry it took a while. heres some more pron.

im running my 150 watt randall (like this http://web.aoct.org/marshall/Series-ParallelSpeakerDiagram.jpghead
) threw 2 16 ohms and 2 8ohms speakers.

Hey everybody.... I've got an RG80ES head with original foot switch, plus the matching 2x12 cab (4/16 ohm switchable). Only issue is cosmetic, the carpet on the upper right side of cab is frayed in a small area (yes, it's a carpeted model).

I am the second owner, and it is in clean working condition. Hit up the link, and contact me through that post if interested.

Thanks, and hope everyone has a great xmas.

R.I.P DIme

so i got to meet Rita sunday which was simply awsome, she had to be the nicest person ive got to meet in all honesty

she was so kind and took the time to actually talk which alot of people of her status would not do

Did a shot of Blacktooth, chatted for a bit and just told her how much i appreciated Her and Dime and what Dime had done for my life and she seemed very pleased with that

Met Chad Lee to, didnt get a pic with him but i shook his hand, same with THE KAT, Chad and the Kat were very awsome as well

I just now realized that the proto Rust RB had the USA Hardtail inlays and not the Vs and Razorblade. Formula73 and Ijenkch have the other proto's if i'm correct...........do these have the hardtail inlays as well?

I've also got the 1st one from Knucklebonz but I definitely like this one better.....much better job on the face.

I find it one...i'm trying to get it!

i just got mine a couple of days ago. and to me it sounds way better than the rg100es's i had a few months ago. anyone else compared the two?

Is it even any good? I've been dying to try one since they came out but never see them in stores.

http://www.guitarworld.com/pantera_stars?EMC-BT9514612007

i hooked it up to the randall and when boosted it sounds like a duck or something. when i had my other randalls it was fine. but its been sitting up for about 3 or 4 months or so. so i figure its just some dust build up. anyone have this problem?

Does anybody know where I can find the Dimebag Dunlop Cry baby from hell poster? Dime is dressed in his camo shorts on stage and his hair is flying all over the place. It is the sickest dimebag poster to date. Please help me find it for the holidays!!!

my isp pedal is making a quaking noise when i boost the furman or the metal zone. but when the decimator isnt hooked up the tone is fine. so does anyone else have this problem?

Hi,

DIme had on his dean from hell "higrady"!

Whats does it mean ?!


(sry for my englisch)







greetings
dirtbag

i know the heads are different, but i think the main differences come out from something else, like the PQ position or what else...

I konw the B series have the balanced outputs right' that means less noise?

I'm sure this topic has been beaten to death, but I just bought a 300w Warhead amp to play my FBD Dean guitar thru (I'm a bass player, guitar is a hobbie for me).

Has anyone here taken a pic of, or listed where to place all the settings to get Dime's sound (all knobs & EQ)? My amp should be delivered this week, and Dime's sound is what I'm aiming for.

Thanks dudes, stay metal, Getcha PULL!!!!!!!

Pics taken in Montreal, with me, my friend Cindy, and with Pantera in 1993. We took them partying at a metal bar (Backstreet) after thier show with White Zombie at the Spectrum. Me with Big Vin in 2006 at Steve's Music Store:

anyone own one..?im just wanting to see what people think if anyone has tried the furman or mxr with with one,and if anyone if getting rid of one ...im switching to tubes i belive.........so bye bye rg 100 es heads

i dunno why i never askd this..,but when going low inputs does your cliping light on furman go on every time u chunk hard on it ??

Well, it's NOT my Randall setup, but she'll do for now.
I recorded this cover tune through my Digitech RP350.
It's not perfect, and the solo had to redone, but I like
the way it came out. The solo "blends" in and out.

I will be recording my real "Dime tone" soon, once
my mic adapter gets here....

http://boomp3.com/m/b8fc842c15b5


Feel free to comment.....

Its probably been posted before, but what did he use in the studio for all the Damageplan stuff? Did he use the same rack gear with the Warhead?

Let me hear your voice! Which best and why?

Are there any Rust RBs that look like this ANYWHERE in the world?...

This picture is the reason I wanted one...but have yet to see one that even comes close.

http://contests.guitarworld.com/girlspicview.php?picname=0308_Dimebag.jpg

Also has the tabs for "Floods" and an interview with Grady about Dime's gear.This looks to be the best GW in years.

I was asked this question in the "funky slime" thread, I'll post here 'cause I hate hyjaking threads:

I bought a Trans-Braziliaburst Dean MLX last year, I was suprised to see the red paint on it when I opened the box. I believe a true Dean "trans-cherryburst" should be an ML and look like this one on Ebay:






A true cherryburst has gold knobs, a bell shaped cover on the trussrod marked "ML", and is stained red on the back of the body/neck/headstock..., also a set neck.

My MLX has red "cherryburst" paint on it, but the front & back of the body have a burst paint scheme, clear maple finish on the back of the neck (bolt on) + headstock, black knobs, and a triangular MLX trussrod cover. I was told it was probably painted this way in error at the Dean plant. Any thoughts?!?

My Dean MLX Braziliaburst (painted Cherryburst):

hey guys, i've been waiting for my account to get activated forever, and now i'm finally here, i wanna give you all a big HELLO, and say that you'll be hearing from me a lot on here, i've been getting all my info from here everyday since i got my Dean From Hell CFH. I'll be glad to help anyone out with my knowledge, and if you wanna hear my band or anything, ask and i'll post a link to the youtube page. DEUCE

I just found this while looking for a baby dean pack for my nephew....

First, do you realy think these pedals are from before 2004 and Dime really signed them...AND.....isn't that king of expensive??

BTW...anyone know where I can get one of those 3/4 size Michael Schenker Packages....The ones that come with the little 10w amp?

I have searched everywhere with no luck. I should have started looking earlier, but I just found out the little guy will be spending Christmas with us...

I'd like to thank Rude for directing me to Sam Ash's website.

Okay, so there's 20 beautiful USA Razorbolts being built for Sam Ash, and someone obviously had at least 20 Cry Baby Wahs that Dime had signed stached away somewhere for this release. You know it's the real deal 'cause you will get a Vinnie, Rita, and Dean Zalinsky signed cetificate of authenticity.

Had I not just blown all my savings on a new Harley, I would have probably bought one, 'cause:

-The guitar is wicked
-My Pantera autographed jean jacket from 1993 was stolen & I would love to get a Dime autograph back
-It's pricey at $7000, but packaged with the autographed Wah & it's limited run of 20, it will likely hold or increase in value

BUT, this Eddie Van Halen guitar has got to be a joke on Sam Ash. They are building 300 of them and are charging $25,000 each. 25 G's, for a beat up guitar..., for that kinda money, I would expect nothing less than the original guitar out of Eddie's collection.

I know the guitar is easily one of the most recognized in the world, but come on..., to intentionally beat it up & put cigarette burns on the guitar, and try to sell it?!? You gotta be kidding me, go to the site, it states intentional cigarette burns on the guitar.

That's like those kids in high school, who would take thier leather jackets off and ask me to run my motorcycle over them..., if you want a beat up guitar, just take it on the road, play the s%*t out of it, and don't take care of it.

Is it me, or has the world gone crazy?!?

Nice $7000:

$25,000 and it's a replica..., WTF?!?

i was listening to metallica and i was listening to battery and it was the same riff dime played on dimevision vol1 in the mid eightys solo section.

Where's Hellion, he may want this one

i never see any deans with the string hold bar or whatever.. y did dime have one?

Lotsa people posting cool Pantera videos all over the place, so I'll post my favorite. It was filmed in my home town of Montreal in 1997.

It's 1 hour 10 mins long *** first 5 mins are a bit blurry, but the rest of the video is amazing *** dude ZOOMS in on DIME on every solo.

Please post any other cool videos here.

yea so im not really sure if im done it looks like hell now but plays real nice

i dont really have time to do anything else to it













i COMPLETELY guessed the bottom half cuz i was going off a screen shot

and yes i did it with a sharpy and a pencil

Just wondering if i could send my Dime Shadow in to Dean to get a Dime-O-Flage paint job done on it.

Is for December 8th, 2004 to have never happened.

Everyone at DEAN and the DEAN forum Have a nice xmas have a great new year ,Drink lots of piss and listen to lots of metal & stay out of trouble .CHEERS Dan

Limited Run guys? Ahh Lawsuit smawsuit,

I have one amp and I boost it with EQs and an overdrive upfront and I have a 10 band in the loop. To switch to the clean channel I'd have to jump around turning all this stuff off to keep it sounding pure. I'm not The Flash so I just turn my guitar volume knob all the way down when I want to play cleaner parts. Only problem is they're not that clean.

I'm pretty sure the solution is to get a second amp that I'd A/B for clean parts only, right? Is that what guys like Dime did that had a bunch of stuff boosting their dirty amp? Or is there something out there where I could click a switch and it turns off all my EQs and overdrive and puts me on my clean channel?

what is the original cover supposed to be? a screw going into an ass?

I've been reading the board forever, but I finally broke down and got my user ID. Anyway, I didn't wanna post until I had the guitar safely in my hands for fear of jinxing myself. For the last couple of months I had seen a USA Dean From Hell # 121 of 150 on EBAY for much more than I could pay. I had 2 very valuable guitars which I was willing to trade for it. The gentleman is an outstanding person and a huge guitar freak like me. He stewed on the trade for a bit and then agreed. So, I sent him my 2 guitars (which I will miss) and he sent me # 121. I just picked it up today and I am dying to get it all set up and start jamming. This WILL be a players guitar because I don't believe in collecting an instrument whose beauty is in the sound it makes...screw looks. Owning this guitar is a dream come true for me personally.

Here is where the story gets good. Prior to the completion of the # 121 trade, I had given up hope that it would happen. So, while browsing EBAY I saw the guitar in my avatar. The seller of it is also a truely outstanding person, as well. He is an incredible musician too. He bent over backwards to make the deal and ship to me. THANKS! It is the prototype from the NAMM show for the USA War Camo and is different than the production model Camo in a few ways. Most noteably in the lack of neck binding. Well, my wife had given me the OK to grab it up if I promised not to buy any other guitars in 2008. With the uniqueness of the guitar, I was all over it. Let me tell you, the camo is the NUTZ! After setting it up and cranking it on my Marshall, I am in love. It will always be my # 1. It is HEAVY as hell too. The thing weighs in at 11 pds. The # 121 is prolly only 7 or 8. I can't wait to compare them.

To make a long story short, I went from having no Deans (but always wanting the USA ML's) to having the 2 that I could only imagine about in just a 3 week period. I'm in heaven.

On a down side...lol...just to keep me leveled out, my head gasket blew out on my truck and I am US Military stationed in Germany. That means it's gonna cost me about $3000 just to fix it. It's a good thing I bought the Camo first, because that would have been poo poo'd on by the old lady for sure!

Could someone please point me to view a copy of the Dime Guitar Notes? I have heard them referenced a lot, but have never heard them. Also, I heard my War Camo was drawn up in the notes? Any info would be killer. Thanks!

It's uploading

It's Revolution is my Name, there's a little screw up in the second solo, so sue me

and keep in mind, I'm ugly, get used to it.

Bump, Video is up.

Im thinking about picking one of these up, but im really undecided atm. I can order one tomorrow if I decide I want one, the store has 2 used (one is standard RH200G2 and other is RH200SC) Id really love some feedback on them, can they get close to the dimebag tone with an eq in the loop? i only want to get one if it does the dime tone well, I know mzda has one, and I saw another member comment how he liked the G2's, so if you guys could throw me your opinions on the amps that would be awesome

hey guys just wondering if the randall rh300g3 is even worth getting, since its price is low compared to other randalls... will it get any dime tone outta an eq and metal zone?

im selling mine so let me know if you want it...........

Anyone have any good settings for this?
Pantera like sound.

I have the 6 band blue eq box as well.

Just recorded this sucka today http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Ld1rucSaEIY

Description says it all - the Razorback w/Dimebucker throughout. Metalzone -> DigiDelay -> amp (Fat Rat 15w).

Delay on the intro, just distortion in the rest of the song.

Enjoy, folks!

EDIT: Also did a vid. of You Really Got Me (Van halen's cover, not the Kinks' original) with my TLML - check that out too: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=5Clqx6aXkEM
