Hi there,

yesterday my local dealer called me and told me, that my long awaited Dime-O-Flame (i ordered it in april this year) has arrived!
I was driving fast as hell to him to get my brand new Dean axe...

When i was at home again i opened the box and....

What a disappointment! Sad Embarassed Sad

I awaited a great paint job on this guitar...but the black isn't black...it's something like green dots!
You can see it on this pictures:

But the biggest disappointment on this guitar is the really crappy Floyd Rose Tremolo System...

You have to screw tremolo arm into the floyd and it wobbels like the tail of a cow...there is now possibility to tighten it...

Why the f*** Dean uses such a lousy tremolo system on a Dimebag tribute guitar? I mean i paid a lot of money and every cheaper guitar has a better termolo than this one!!!

I think there are some more users here which play this guitar?
Do you have the same tremolo system and green graphic on your guitar?

Please tell me if this is on every Dime-O-Flame...because i'm thinking of selling it again on Ebay...Sad

Thanks for your replies and greetings,

Matthias
