The screw position markers would look nice on the "Rust Razorback"

I've had lots of guitars, but this Yamaha Pacifica 302S was hands down the prettiest and sounded just as good. Yet another I regret selling. She was grimy, missing strings and sticker covered at my local pawn shop for over a year before they sold her to me for $100. No flame, no quilt, just gorgeous wood!

Finally some good stuff from ANTHRAX again!

This cd is really cool cause I finally get to hear some of the forum members!!! So if your on it hows about posting your bands name on the cd so we can see whos who??And congrads to all you!! good job!!

I just bought my boyfriend a Dean V and I have no idea what we have. The serial is E804460, what does the E stand for? And how can you tell the year it was made? It has the big block inlays and brazil burst(?).

Hello, Let us start by saying that I know little to nothing about Guitars. My boyfriend is in a band and for Christmas I am looking to get him a custom guitar case made. I've been having alot of trouble finding someone to make one. If anyone has any sugestions it would be appreciated.

Stepho

Are any non-USA Rust Razorback pics circulating yet?

Does this amp have alot of high end sizzle? or is it just me? there's this top end buzzy sizzle that I find very noticable when playing leads, I can dial it out with the presense all the way back, but then I'm losing alot of that cutting tone I like. It's not a big complaint though, just wondering if you guys have noticed this too.

BTW I'm looking for an overdrive or something to boost this amp into metal territory. What do you recommend? I'm thinking a boss sd-1 or something. Will I need an EQ too? I'm not nessesarily looking for the Dime tone, just a good tight, heavy sound.

Straight from the mouths of the people running it.

listen to the story on the second one.

I have my Czech Dean flying V guitar for sale on ebay if anyone is interest. (I'd like to post it on here but not sure how) I need the money for sale plus I dont really pl;ay it much. I play my '79 Series BB Flying V. Thanks

if any forum and their family members that lost their home in the hurricane or the aftermath, needs a place to shack up for a whille and you can get to the pittsburgh area. Mi casa su casa... as long as you dont mind sleeping in my game room with my guitars and such and my 2 year old and 5 year old pestering you......

guess my mang got more than he really wanted...

sorry... the links that were attachet to this movie had some pics that were no no's on here... sorry...

really i cant...

sorry... the link had some pics that were no no's on here...

Can anyone please tell or explain to me why my V is called a "phamtom" when everyone refers to it as a phantom??or is my guitar just an odd one out ??

Alright, my band's first show is in a week. We'll be playing at my school's annual outdoor barbeque, and we're one of the bands entertaining. We'll be playing for maybe 1000 people aged 10-40, the median being teenagers, so we want to play stuff that they could get into.

I believe we get to play three songs. We're a metal band, as you most likely know.

The lineup is

Myself on guitar, rhythm and some lead.
Wally on guitar or bass, depends on the song
Jacob on lead guitar.
Shaun on drums.

So we could have three guitars for a song, just in case there are doubled leads, or we could go to the "Traditional" band setup and have the two guitars and a bass.

The songs we're thinking so far are:

Pantera - Domination
Metallica - Creeping Death

The only problem with Creeping Death is that neither Jacob or I know the solo perfectly, and he refuses to have it improvised. I'm going to keep trying to learn it, but if we can't, we can't play the song.

Can I get some suggestions on the last song or some changes? Thanks.

This is my 1000th post! Woohoo! I bought my first Dean guitar just about 2 years ago and have been on the forum for about a year and a half. I have been through several Deans in that time so I thought I would share a little pictorial history of my past 2 years!

My second Dean - Icon SS


MLX


ML Select


Czech Caddy


79 Z

Is this correct

On the V Headstocks

Series 2 Slightly smaller than Series 1 and current on the 79'
series guitars
Series 3 Smallest "V" Headstock, discontinued mid 2002 and
Dean switched back to the Series 2 "V" Headstock.

wow....I must get into rants way too often, huh?

I love this community, and I am glad that I came upon it when I did!

Thank you all for your patience, and for wlecoming into the community as you have.

Yeah...I've been out of it for too long...I AM alive though, which is a good thing. I'll be getting a new computer soon, but unfortunately, I won't have internet for a little while, but that's ok. It's a step in the right direction.

In my latest news, I'M HAVING A BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, not me, personally, but my fiance, Jackie is. (And YES, it is mine). We go in next week for our first doctor's appointment. We're both pretty excited though. I think me, more than her, if that's possible.

In other news, I quit my job at McDonalds (quit as a manager), got hired at Blockbuster and got fired for being on time. I know...odd concept. I got there exactly at 10am, which was the time I was schedualed to be there, but they have a seriously @#%$@!!& up rule that you have to be there 5 minutes early (to ensure that I'm going to be there). At any rate, I'm looking for a new job, so...

$5,999.99 or soome such for the USA Dime Razorback?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

The pix were cool.

I waited a long time before I wrote this note, but something is not running Ok for people who want to buy a Dean instrument in Europe. More than 3 months ago I ordered a Dean Bromberg in a German shop. When it arrived I was impressed by the sound and the quality, but I noticed the bridge was not mounted correctly making it impossible to fine-tune the bass. After a long discussion with the shop I send the bass back to them and they confirmed something was wrong. They had to order new basses because their stock was empty... I contacted the store several times and they still (after 3 months) don`t have a clue when the basses will arrive. I wrote an e-mail to questions@deanguitars.com, no feedback. I contacted a different shop and they told me that there are stock issues in the US concerning the Bromberg bass. Apparently another bass I was looking for (Dean Rhapsody Fretless) is discontinued but is issued in the 2005 catalogue... I don`t know if other people experieced simular issues, but I`ve quite had it.

I got the call for mobilization yesterday. I'll be going to Naval Air Station Meridian, MS for at least a month. Fortunately, this is less than two hours from my home which, also fortunately, was spared any damage. Sadly some of my friends lost their homes but we are fine.

I will be working in the PAO(Public Affairs Office) during my mobilization. I understand that we are already providing shelter to nearly 1,000 people with many more on the way. My job will be to gather and disperse information for all onboard. It will be a difficult and stressful time for all, needless to say. I expect we will be working seven days a week for the entire month.

I am asking everyone to please send some good thoughts and prayers for my family and especially the thousands of homeless and hopeless. I am about to meet them face to face.

Who uses what in here and what are your opinions on them?

I use an Ibanez Smashbox. It's the only Ibanez product I've ever liked. Great tone, has a crappy void switch on it, but besides that, it gives you some CRUSHING tone and pretty good crunch to go along. I have my s#%t set up to where it sounds pretty close to Chimaira's Impossiblity of Reason album.
HOWEVER when the volume is down, like when I'm just playin around at home, i have to have the lows up high. When I play out with people I have to drop the lows down cuz it starts getting REAL muddy. Like 7 string muddy. Still a good pedal though for like 50 bucks.

i have an mlxt, and the thingy that the bar goes into is real wobly. i dont know if its that, or where it enters my floyd thanx in adv.

Alright so Im in tHis band right and I can't stand they way my grind songs sound with to guitars so I told them I was taking my songs and doing my own thing with them and I would come up with some Thrash that would work great with two guitars and the drummers says to me where keeping the first song becuse its awsome and to this i say no your not its my song i wrote and he says we wrote the song it should stay with us this is where i realy sart to get mad becuse they didn't write the song i wrote it befor I knew them then he tells me hes kicking me out and talkign my song. im really pissed off and I want to know what any one on hear would do?

Its all I can afford right now, but one day I will get a Dean ML for sure. Until then, this will do.

Ok so i'm at this party, kicking game to some girl... I'm all in and s#%t, i definately am hookin it up. We're on a bed, laying back and i'm about to hook up with her, and she seems into it, but quickly rises, and sits up. Then she asks what her name is. My mouth fell wide open, i didnt know it. So told her to name names, and if i hear the right one i will tell her. Obviously i didn't get it right so she left. Has this ever happened to any of you guys?

I just got one of these and I have to say its the best tuner I have ever used. The difference is amazing. I never realized how far off my little Korg tuner was! Its great for setting your intonation too. Its dead on. The true bypass is a nice feature.

If all goes well, she'll be mine by the end of the week. I know it's not a dean, but the neck is made in the US in the Ibanez Endorsees Custom Shop in Los Angeles. For 900 bucks, cant beat that, considering UV's, japaneese made, go for 1800.

Add a dose of Korina and my brain/wallet is toast!

Selling two to get one. But OH What a one!

My sister (away for college at the moment) wants me to give her one of my guitars so she can learn to play. Note the word "give". Now, she doesn't seem to understand the emotional attachment I have to this guitar she wants (my first guitar I ever played). Is it at all wrong for me to say, "Hell no, you can't have one of my guitars!"? Basically this forum is something to show my sister, and to tell her to buy her own damn guitar.

OK. FIRST OFF, I MADE THIS CLIP TO SHOW THE SOUNDS OF THE POWERBALL. I DIDNT PLAY PARTS OF SONGS TO GET THE BEST PRODUCER OF THE YEAR AWARDS OR PLAY PARTS LIKE I WAS TRYING TO PUT OUT A CD. I JUST JAMMED SOME PARTS FOR PEOPLE TO HEAR. I WOULD SUGGEST TO GET THE EXACT SOUND I AM HEARING SET YOUR WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER EQ FLAT THIS WAY YOUR EQ DOESNT CHANGE THE ACTUAL SOUND THAT I RECORDED.

I MADE SOME MEGA GAIN CLIPS

SOME CLEAN CHANNEL CLIPS

AND SOME MEDIUM ACDC STYLE GAIN

GAIN CHANNEL = OVER TOP RIP YOUR FACE OFF GAIN. ID SAY THE SETTING I HAVE IT ON WORKS GREAT FOR LIVE PLAYING AND RECORDING TO SHOW THE AMP SOUND. MAYBE A BIT TOO MUCH LOWEND IF IT WERE TO BE A RECORDING FOR A CD THOUGH. DEFINATELY WOULD DIAL SOME LOWS OUT AND THE PUNCH CONTOUR(RESONANCE) DOWN ON THE AMP. IVE GOT THE CONTOUR JACKED ALL THE WAY UP TO ASSAULT MY SPEAKERS. HAHAHA

CRUNCH CHANNEL = REALLY CRUNCHY. EASY TO GET THAT ACDC SOUND

CLEAN CHANNEL = PROBABLY THE BEST TUBE CLEAN IVE HEARD FROM A HEAD. I PRESONALLY LIKE SOLID STATE CLEAN MORE BUT THIS CHANNEL ON THIS AMP IS QUICKLY CHANGING MY MIND.
ONE THING I DONT LIKE IS THAT THERE IS NOT A EFX BUTTON ON THE BOARD. YOU CANT TURN THE LOOP ON AND OFF FROM THE PEDAL. THAT SEEMS TO BE VERY IGNORANT IMHO. I LIKE THE LOOP ON THE MESA BETTER . YOU CAN DIAL THE LOOP TO ONLY WORK ON THE CHANNEL YOU WANT IT TO. THERE IS A KEWL BUTTON ON THIS PEDAL THOUGH THAT ENGAGES THE KEWL SOUND. THE PEDAL HAS IT LABELED AT REVERB BUT REALLY ISNT A REVERB. THERE ISNT A REVERB SETTING ON THE AMP. IT DOESNT HAVE AN ECHO OR THAT SRPING REVERB SOUND THAT I DESPISE. JUST ADDS FULLNESS AND THICKENS THE SOUND OF THE AMP. WORKS GREAT ON THE CRUNCH CHANNEL AND LEADS. GIVES IT A REALLY BROWN SOUND WHICHS BRINGS ME TO THE LEADS. I LOVE THIS AMP BUT HAVE STILL NOT DIALED A SOLO TONE YET ON IT THAT I LIKE OVER MY ADA MP-1. YOU CAN HEAR ON THIS CLIP ON THIS SOLO PART. NO MATTER WHAT I DID, IT SOUNDED SLOPPY AND LACKED SUSTAIN. MAYBE I JUST NEED TO GET USED TO THE BEAST YET. I DUNNO.

OVER ALL THE HEAD HAS TURNED OUT TO BE A KEEPER AND I LOVE IT . FOR THE MOST PART IT RIPPS, SOME STUFF LIKE PANTERA FOR EXAMPLE SOUNDS BETTER ON SOLID STATE BUT THIS AMP STILL CRUSHES MOST AMPS IVE HEARD. IT ALSO HAS A NOISE GATE THAT IS PRETTY GOOD. I DONT THINK IT WAS DESIGNED FOR THE METAL GUITARIST CAUSE IT STILL RELEASES TOO SOON AND DOESNT CUT OFF FAST ENOUGH. WORKS PERFECT ON CRUNCH CHANNEL BUT NOT ON THE MEGA GAIN CHANNEL. MOST PLAYERS WOULD BE SMART TO INVEST IN A GOOD NOISE GATE LIKE ISP DECIMATOR OR ROCKTRON HUSH. THE AMP IS BOUT AS NOISEY AS A PEAVEY XXX. BUT EASIEST AMP IVE EVER MIC'D . I JUST DIALED IT LIKE I DID AT REHEARSAL, SHOVED A MIC TO THE CENTER OF THE CONE AND RIPPED THESE CLIPS OFF. I CANT WAIT TO HEAR IT IN OUR P.A LIVE.

Hey,

I am looking at getting a Dean acoustic. Just curious if Dean ever made an acoustic with the big V headstock? Thanks.

Hey,

Did anyone else see the article in the new guitar one about Randy Rhoads? It has a picture of him playing a Dean V!!! It has a les paul style pickguard on it. I dont have a scanner or I would scan the picture.

well i am senior this year and they offered college classes so you can get college credit and highschool credit that is weighted.

Man i have only been to english twice and have already gotten 4 large projects. First was easier, it was a 200 word "journal" entry. I also had a paper that was given for one of the books that i had to go through and find answers to. Next class, i have to wire a letter to someone and then send it to my teacher so she can read it and grade it. Everytime there is something wrong she sends it back and the grade goes down by one letter. Same class period, i am suppose to check out a book of letters and read 10 then write a 1 page report over the letters.

It is not that any of it hard, it is just time consuming. Oh and for goverment i have to read from page 3-66 and it is a full large text book.

I am really glad i am a looser with no social life, or agenda other than playing the guitar and school.

which wah....

I have an announcement to make...

Ahem...

(This is a bit difficult for me, give me a sec,) OK, Breathe and...

My name is Chris and I am a Dean guitar lover. (Hello, Chris)

I have hit a "speed bump" on the road of life and need to part with my '03 Green TCV. (The one in my avatar.) I am ready to make a killer deal with someone however it is VERY important to me she finds a good home!!! For that reason I don't want to turn it loose on Ebay. (Not just yet, anyway.)

I am giving all you guys first shot at it, so please PM me for any and all info, first come, first serve of course. If you ever wanted one but $1,999.00 was uncomfortable, HERE'S YOUR CHANCE...

Take one dad with a little time, a piece of polycarbonate and a scroll saw.

Here's what you get.





Not 100% happy with it but it was fun!

DeanV

well my dad is away working in Utah, and he finds this ibanez bass for 129 . He looks it up and finds that it is rare but not much else anyways i was hoping that maybe just maybe one of you guys could give me some info or input on.

It is an Ibanez axstar headless 4 string bass. From the online ad i found for them it is a 1986 model , but i didn't find anything about how many where made and if they where worth anything.

this one isn't mine but mine is the exact same color as this one, and i belive that same specs.

Is there any sound Difference from the Blue to the black, Just wondering because I might buy on or the other.

Went into the local GC the other day while the wife was shopping next door. Starting playing around with this and wound up liking it so much I bought it. Even Tom would be proud of the deal I got it for.


Fretwork on it was surprisingly nice for a Squire. I love the matching headstock too


Mirror pickguard

The pups have some punch to them but the odds are they will be going soon.
The rosewood has some nice grain in it too but the pics dont really show it. The neck is smooth as glass

Ive been wanting a tele for a while now and just couldnt pass this up.

Hope the pic works. I got one of the first ones in the country!!! What do you guys think, sorry for the bad pic I'll get some more soon.

Hi I bought #31 Faded Denim but it didn't come with the COA. Can one of you guys help me get one? I tried emailing DEAN Guitars but I get a "non deliverable " message. I tried from home and from work.

Also does anybody know about the Warranty? Is it transferable? I am the second owner plus I am in Canada. My beautifull HT Collector Edition needs repairs! Volume drops out (bridge p/u "on" and both p/u "on") I needs to tap on Tone control to get it back. Just in time too!! I was getting ready to bid on a Spalted (Ebay). This kind of soured me with Dean guitars. I still love my Ml 79, Hardtail Select and the CE but I will wait for repairs diagnostic before getting another one.
Thanks

I just strung up a new set of strings that I haven't tried before (Everly 11-56) And it seems that they are waaayyy louder than any other ones I have used (GHS boomers, GHS Infinity Steels, Dean Markley blue Steels, Black Diamonds, Ernie Balls, etc...) Is this common? The lights on the compressor were going much higher too (limiting lights.) Anyone ever experienced this before?

I put in my 2 cents.....Have fun.

Yes, Bob Denver, better known as Gilligan from Gilligans Island, died today from complications from cancer. Hopefully he and the Skipper are doing a two-man dinner theater routine in the afterlife!

Yikes look at this tokai!!!anyone got some panties for it???

just messin around in photoshop!!

What year did Dean change the style of the rear control panels?
Are the 79 RI panels like they were in 1979?
This is an 81..



This a 79 Reissue.

Some killer playing on this record! The songs that he sings on are even really good. Its not a heavy record by any means but man his playing is awesome. His tones are so clean and thick. The dude is incredible!!!

My girl got it for my birthday and it is handsdown the s#%t. Every band you can think of that touched heavy metal is in there and some that make you go wtf? It even mentions Jag panzer in one part. Definitly worth checking out.

Ok got to say somthing about arch enemy!!This band is really cool!!the first time i heaaard them was when i saw them open for slayer, man was i blown away by their chick singer!!Shes one fierce vocal presence real heavy sounds like an exorcism!!true metal and the band actually has some melody!!You should go to mtv.com and watch the nemisis video!!bout time we seen a girl thats truely metal singing!!

http://www.cream2005.com/creamMSG.lasso

Anyone going to see them?

It's like they throw a bunch of random words in the subject and body. They're not actually selling something. What the hell is the point?

Does anyone know a site which contains a video of Michael Angelo playing his Quad Guitar? Its something I need to see!

Check out the DFH and Schenker Baby models! COOL!

Okay guys, I want to order a two tone from Center Stage Muscic inc., Harley is the dude on the forum that works there. No offense man, but my parrents are making me do all this stuff. Has anyone bought from Harley or Center Stage Music inc.? Thanks in advance, please answer quick I want to get one ordered A.S.A.P..

(BTW, if I get the razor, I can't get anymore guitars untill I move out, this will be my only electric .)

went with a 4x12 loaded with 2 Celestion Vintage 30's and 2 Celestion G12T-75's in an X pattern. Should be here next week. My old cab with its crappy speakers was the weak point in my rig (besides the player of course ) Looking forward to jamming with my new toy!

A wild woman I know told me to share these with you guys just ta bug ya.

WOMAN'S PERFECT BREAKFAST

She's sitting at the table with her gourmet coffee.
Her son is on the cover of the Wheaties box.
Her daughter is on the cover of Business Week.
Her boyfriend is on the cover of Playgirl.
And her husband is on the back of the milk carton.

WOMEN'S REVENGE

"Cash, check or charge?" I asked, after folding items the woman wished to purchase.
As she fumbled for her wallet I noticed a remote control for a television set in her purse.
"So, do you always carry your TV remote?" I asked.
"No," she replied, " but my husband refused to come shopping with me, and I figured this was the most evil thing I could do to him legally."

UNDERSTANDING WOMEN
(A MAN'S PERSPECTIVE)

I know I'm not going to understand women.
I'll never understand how you can take boiling hot wax,
pour it onto your upper thigh, rip the hair out by the root,
and still be afraid of a spider.

MARRIAGE SEMINAR

While attending a Marriage Seminar dealing with communication,
Tom and his wife Grace listened to the instructor,
"It is essential that husbands and wives know each other's likes and dislikes."
He addressed the man, "Can you name your wife's favorite flower?"
Tom leaned over, touched his wife's arm gently and whispered, "It's Pillsbury, isn't it?

CIGARETTES AND TAMPONS

A man walks into a pharmacy and wanders up and down the aisles.
The sales girl notices him and asks him if she can help him.
He answers that he is looking for a box of tampons for his wife.
She directs him down the correct aisle. A few minutes later, he deposits a huge bag of cotton balls, and a ball of string on the counter. She says, confused, "Sir, I thought you were looking for some tampons for your wife? He answers, " You see, it's like this,
yesterday, I sent my wife to the store to get me a carton of
cigarettes, and she came back with a tin of tobacco and some rolling papers; cause it's sooo-ooo--oo-ooo much cheaper.
So, I figure if I have to roll my own .......... so does she.
( I figure this guy is the one on the milk carton! )

WIFE VS. HUSBAND

A couple drove down a country road for several miles, not saying a
word. An earlier discussion had led to an argument and neither of them wanted to concede their position. As they passed a barnyard of mules, goats, and pigs, the husband asked sarcastically, "Relatives of yours?"
"Yep," the wife replied, "in-laws."

W O R D S
A husband read an article to his wife about how many words women use a day... 30,000 to a man's 15,000. The wife replied, "The reason has to be because we have to repeat everything to men..." The husband then turned to his wife and asked, "What?"

CREATION

A man said to his wife one day, "I don't know how you can be
so stupid and so beautiful all at the same time. " The wife responded, "Allow me to explain. God made me beautiful so you would be attracted to me; God made me stupid so I would be attracted to you!

WHO DOES WHAT
A man and his wife were having an argument about who
should brew the coffee each morning.
The wife said, "You should do it, because you get up first,
and then we don't have to wait as long to get our coffee."
The husband said, " You are in charge of cooking around here and
you should do it, because that is your job, and I can just wait for my coffee." Wife replies, "No, you should do it, and besides, it is in the Bible that the man should do the coffee." Husband replies, "I can't believe that, show me." So she fetched the Bible, and opened the New Testament and showed him at the top of several pages, that it indeed says.........."HEBREWS"

The Silent Treatment
A man and his wife were having some problems at home and were giving each other the silent treatment. Suddenly, the man realized that the next day, he would need his wife to wake him at 5:00 AM for an early morning business flight.
Not wanting to be the first to break the silence (and LOSE), he wrote on a piece of paper, "Please wake me at 5:00 AM." He left it where he knew she would find it. The next morning, the man woke up, only to discover it was 9:00 AM and he had missed his flight. Furious, he was about to go and see why his wife hadn't wakened him, when he noticed a piece of paper by the bed. The paper said, "It is 5:00 AM. Wake up."

all these new Hard Core, straight edge, metal core bands that come out and are shoving this vegetarian, veganism down your throat?
I find it kind of funny that these people are all "don't eat meat, meat is murder" and when you go and ask them who their influinces are they're like "Ozzy, Sabbath, Slayer, Alice Cooper" and all that. I guess they forgot that Ozzy was the one who bit the heads off of 2 fuzzy little animals. (Ok I know bats aren't really all that fuzzy or cute but still). I was at a show a year or so ago and the opening band was like "THIS ONE GOES OUT TO ALL THE HARDCORE AND VEGAN KIDS IN THE CROWD CUZ YOU GOTTA STAY STRONG AND NOT EAT MEAT AND......" I dunno how he finished that cuz I left to go sit outside and drink...

What would you guys buy for a first guitar for a small 7yo girl?

Needs to be small (She's very small for 7)
No floyds
Preferably available in girlie colors
Inexpensive (not necessarily "cheap")

If you feel uncomfortable recommending a non-Dean, feel free to PM me

Its a crazy mix between old-school metal (like priest, diamond head) and nu-metal stuff.
Its pretty good and has a lot of "Halfordesque" voices and shredding.

I sugest the DEADLY SINNERS track

KIEV, Sept 8 - Ukraine's President Viktor Yushchenko sacked his government on Thursday as the team which led the "Orange Revolution" less than a year ago broke apart amid infighting and accusations of mass graft.

May I ask how in the blue hell do you fire an entire government?

Is the middle east part of Asia?

OK guys. I saw Eric with Blind Faith in 69, also saw Peter Green practically smoke him in a jam at Steve Paul's Scene . Loved BOTH their playing ! Two poor guys - feel bad for them both for the pain they've been through.

But ERIC - COME ON !!

here you go :
for anyone who is wondering. For all the guys out there (most of their audience) who have stuck with music and guitar playing and struggling with bands, etc etc over the years ... maybe aren't making too much.. but would love to hear one of the original bands one more time.
well you can guys
tickets are
dum de dum dum
UPPER LEVEL BEHIND STAGE $ 350 - that's a months food
UPPER LEVEL ENDZONE $ 450 - new water heater
UPPER LEVEL SIDE STAGE $ 550 - czech EVO
LOWER LEVEL ENDZONE $ 795 - major car repair
LOWER LEVEL REAR CORNER $1,195 - some people's monthly
salary
PREMIUM LOWER LEVEL SIDE $1,495 - some people's CAR
REAR FLOOR (Sections 5-12) $1,595 WHAT!??

and ringside seats - so you can actually SEE Eric play :
for the INCREDIBLE bargain of :
PREMIUM FRONT FLOOR $3,095

those GREEDY BASSTARDS!!
I refuse to believe that Eric doesn't have enough pull that he could have made these cheaper.
PLUS - the ONLY American concerts are on MONDAY< TUESDAY< and WEDNESDAY nights. hey make it EASY on your old fans ERIC -

my daughter wanted to see Paul Simon a while back - it was gonna be $250 for the two of us - I thought - how much fockin money does this guy need. Now Eric is on that list.
Tom Petty actually refuses to play outdoor theaters where the lawn seats are more that $25 . I applaud that .. BRAVO Tom Petty - you put these other greedy bahstahds (that's Brit for fockin bastaard) to SHAMe.

Really, really disappointed in you Eric. Why not play 2 shows - one like this where ALL the money from the well heeled goes to New Orleans and Sri Lanka .. and Rwanda victims .. and another cheap one for your real fans .. not that I'm a fan ,,
used to be a long time ago .. but only listen casually since you've been phoning it in for years .

I would have paid $100, maybe $150 - but this is robbery. and we are not sure thses guys even HAVE chemistry anymore - I mean - Ginger and Jack HATE each other - and they're t he F'in RHYTHM section!!?? LOL

Eric - Jack and Ginger need money .. just GIVE THEM SOME .. don't make US all suffer because those two didn't know how to make $$$ playing commercial music!

to top it all off
you can ONLY get first run at tickets w an AMERICAN EXPRESS GOLD CARD!! open one for only $95!! hahahaha
how Bourgeois can you GET!!

ok - that's my rant

Funny - Eric's idol Robert Johnson played for pennies.
Now Eric wants us to go broke to see him play Crossroads one more time. Eric has made an "at the crossroads " choice here. He could have done a class act. Went for the dollar instead. Cream is not the only thing that rises to the top.

I'll go see Eric Johnson instead. He does the name proud.

Well guys I'm posting here to help my sanity. I got a call at noon today, informing me a really good friend was given 3 weeks (at best) to live.........ouch.......totally bummed me out for the rest of
the day. We went out to eat to try and get it off my mind. So I'm
trying to relax and my father calls 15 minutes ago to inform me that
my cousins husband was killed this morning on his Harley. A really great guy!!

When it rains it pours......I don't know if I can even go to work tomorrow........what a pile of oatmeal of a day!!!

I know that I can post here to help keep my sanity. It seems to help us all...........I think we are each others psychiatrists sometimes. I know that just posting makes me feel better.

wat are some good metal (or at least hard rock) songs that would be good to play at a party? i got some lined up but i wanna see wat others think. thanks. ones that are high energy would be good.

Epip hone - Ace Frehley Signature Les Paul Custom / Silver Freak Blueburst Japanese limited edition

help me out?
-Erik

I was just talking to Dave at B&T about buying a TC Caddy but I am unsure about the body size/thickness. I was hoping the body thickness was similiar to something like a Gibson LP Special which is about the same thickness as a LP with no maple, the Czech/Korean Caddys I have seen have been thinner. If anyone can enlighten me I would appreciate it.

I don't get em. At all. Not one bit. But i think i'd be able to shred if i knew them can someone please help me and tell me an easy way to learn them. Or point me in the right direction?

Frank Zappa - You Can't Do That On Stage Anymore Vol2
The Helsinki show with the Roxy Band. Great concert and chock full of Zappa classics and some amazing musicianship

Frank Zappa - Jazz From Hell
This one is a little on the difficult side to really describe. It's a release of Frank's Synclavier compositions. Pretty wild stuff, really amazing how this man wrote tunes and then led the way into the digital era with the Synclaviar.

Porcupine Tree - Deadwing
Not as good as some of their previous releases. It's a little too alternative sounding, where their older stuff had more of a Floyd meets the Beatles flavor to it.

Black Sabbath - Seventh Star
Still need Eternal Idol to finish up the Black Sabbath studio album collection

Athiest - Elements reissue
I've had Unquestionable Presense on CD since it was released, but missed out on this one. Think late period Death and Cynic. Killer song writing and musicianship

Mercyful Fate - Melissa 25th anniversary release
Let's see, the original came out in 1983.....that doesn't quite fit the 25 years theory. Looks like it is RoadRunner's 25th year, so they are remastering, rereleasing and adding some goodies to their old catalogue. The songs were really remastered well and have a new breath of life to them. The DVD extra only has 3 songs - Doomed By The Living Dead, Black Funeral and Curse of the Pharaohs. Video is horrible, audible is decent.

Pelican - The Fire In Our Throats Will Beckon The Thaw
Instrumental moody metal / hard rock. Not as heavy as their earlier releases, but kind of like easy listening metal. Makes great background music that doesn't over interfere with what ever you are doing.

Biomechanical - Empires Of The World
Holy crap! A cross between modern day thrash and complex riffing and time changes. With a singer that has some big range, lows (non death or gutteral kinda Phil-like) to Halford-esque screams. REally digging this one.

Parabellum - Stainless
Our very own Todd the Viking's band. I was pretty amazed on how well produced this release is. Has a killer sound and you can hear everything well. The songs are on the doomy side with some heavy vocals - tons of killer riffs and good tunes.

Dean Owners of America - Audible Portrait 2005
I'm impressed with all the players and their songs. Brian did a great job putting this together, and thank you Ja1010 for hosting the FTP site. Now, if only I could kill that damned drum machine on track 16

Hey guys my guitarist just bought the RG100ES head and it didn't come with a footswitch. When you turn it on does it go straight to the distortion channel or do you have to do that with a footswitch? If you have to use the fs is there any way you can make it go to the OD channel without the switch?

Damn!!! somebody needs to send Type O Negative some Deans....

They are sick...ya know?

PM me please. Still got that Dean jacket that's in my avatar??? Wanna sell it back to me?????

I need to find some tab. But not just any tab. You see, I'm not the greatest guitarist, but I've finally got some motivation.

There's a chick, and I want to get in her pants. Basically, the reason everyone becomes a guitarist. Chicks included.

So what I need from you guys is a reccomendation on a song that's really easy to play that'll make a girl melt.

My dong thanks you for your time.

http://www.guitarhero.net/

They already have Rand Rhoads, Slash, and Zakk Wylde. Their working ond Dimebag, and The Youngs.(Malcom and Angus)

I just watched that movie, and I have to say one thing, WHAT THE gar?!?!?!?! I sort of understood what happened but will someone that has seen it and understood it please tell me what was happening at the very end. that was definitely one of the weirdest movies I have ever seen.

If you like early Sabbath and dig slow mellow trippy bloozy jams... Check out this band...
http://www.witchcrafthome.com/
I have one of their albums and if you took early Black Sabbath, mixed in a dash of early Santana, added a pinch of Led Zep and a sprinkle of Grand Funk, and baked it for 35 years in a kiln, this is the band that would result. The recording, even though it's on CD has a strange bass heavy vinyl-esque sound that I've never heard accurately recorded digitally. It's a time warp for sure! They'll be too slow for some of the guys on here I'm sure, but I guess some of the older guys might like it!

This would go good with my Dean double-neck...only 50 will be made...mmmmmmm.
I'm thinking that if I save about 5 BAGILLION dollars I get snagg one!

ok ive read on a thread on this forum that its a solid state version of the XXX, but on a site it said it was a tube amp , i want a tube amp and i liked the look of the XXL, which is it?

Just wondering what size & brand the strings are that come on the Dimebag model guitars, FBD, DOF, ect. I was gonna change the strings on my FBD to D'Addario 46-9's thinking they were the same size. Not true. The low E string seems a hair bigger than a 46. Does anyone know what Im talking about?

How do you get that Peter Frampton sound that he uses in Do You Feel Like We Do? the guy in Weezer also uses it in their song called Beverly Hills, on the solo.

I was looking at the ProCo Rats, could anyone possibly tell me what the different between the Vintage, Rat 2, and Turbo Rat is? Also, I can't find any sound clips besides the low quality ones on the ProCo site.

I've kind of been sold on some of the sounds from that, so I've been doing a lot of research on those.

Any other suggestions beyond the Rat? I'm looking to start a stompbox collection.

I use a fair amount of distortion. The amount I use is comparible from Filter, some heavier, STP, to Deftones and some heavier distortion.

Thanks, I would have done more research, but I'm lazy and I leave for work in 5 minutes. Thanks.

For all those lost.

Who here doesn't like Pantera. I love them.

I was checking out the new Dean's and seen there back. I've always liked there look. Does anyone have a new one? How much are they? 24 frets too. I'm sure there way better quality than reveal B.C. RICH?

i need two fine tuners for anacutrem does anyone have any?? if you guys font i fear i shall never find any!!

maybe someone knows where i can get em..?

Ok so, i have been thinkin about it and was wondering if anyone had played with it before.

The reason i ask is, i am going to be putting in a PAF pro for a friend and it will be going in a strat. I was a little concerned about the 250k killing the paf pro's tone, it has a bit of a high frequnice spike but i didn't know if the 250s would cut power.

ok so back to my question,it is a 250 k pot, i wire a 250k resistor between the two hot connections on the volume pot and that will make the pickup read a 500k pot or did i get the cumulative reduction current wrong?

This is ENGL's top of the line - a $3500 amp!! You'll never see a deal like this again!!!!

what are your opinions on these amps? i can pick them up cheap over here in the uk so im thinking of buying one, plan to try them out first but it would be good to hear what u guys think, cheers

I'm currently making a custom guitar from a Les Paul copy body with a PRS type neck/headstock.
I just filled the neck pup hole and removed the switch and knobs holes.
The guitar will be painted all white, all-black hardware ToM bridge and tailpiece as well as grovers will be installed. It will only have a volume pot w/ speed-knob.

Can anyone tell me the result of this combo?
Bill Lawrence 500 XL w/ 1meg volume pot

For all you fellow Dime-freaks out there....there's a Randall RG200ES on ebay. As many of you may already know, this is the same pre-amp as the Century 200...it MAY have an RG power-amp, but that would be even better...I power my Century 200 w/ my RG100ES & it sounds MUCH better this way...the RG series have much more clean & raw power than anything else.

So, for all of you interested...Good Luck!!

I need some drum tracks to work some stuff up with. I have a drum machine but its a pain in the butt to program. The computer programs aren't much fun either. Anybody have a lead on any prerecorded drumtracks on CD? Ive seen some advertised here and there but don't want to pop and find out it's crap. Looking for hard rock/metal. If you have any experience with these could you recommend one? Im screwed without Adam on the drums.

I've dislocated my left wrist again. Happens alot. It's as big as my calf muscle right now, going to the doctor in a few hours. It happened in the early 80's. I was playing a Les Paul and the strap knob stripped out of the body, I was on the edge of a stage, 4' down to a concrete floor. As I fell trying to save the guitar(I DID!) I tucked the guitar under and fell on my left hand. It bent back to my forearm, shattering and making pointy bits outta my wrist. The doctor horked it all up. Shoulda sued 'em. Now, I reinjure the sumnabeetch frequently. But usually not this bad. Hehehe. Feels like sombodee parked a fookin Buick on it!

Thru all the complex years I thought I was a gnome...

Since I'm me again, (I was vrad), I've been thinking about all the OGs. I don't see any posts from Tone. I was still in touch with Doc Larry Breiden but I haven't heard from him in at least a year. Where are these 2???

Also haven't seen somerled. What happened to him?

Who says women dont belong in combat??? I took these pics the other day. I though that ponytail hanging out of that crew helmet was kinda cool.

I don't post on here very often, but I value the majority of your opinions, so I was gonna ramble here a bit.

I've been thinking about getting a good tube amp for about 6 months now. Ironically, I got a Randall RG100SCG2 combo about 8 months ago. It was a massive step up from a 20 watt 10 year old crate and a few pedals. However, it doesn't have the tone that I really desire. I've heard so much about the XXX (and 5150/6505) that I really wanted to try them out. After searching a good deal, I found a local shop that carries the full Peavey line. I must say that the XXX is very impressive. They didn't have any 6505s in at the time, but should in a few weeks. But, I think the XXX would be slightly more versitle for my needs (metal/hard rock/rare cleans).

I guess where I'm at is at a cross roads of sort. I feel like that if I drop that kind of coin on a head and cab, it should be the final one I'll have to buy. Maybe as I grow older I will develop a different taste in music that doesn't require the over-the-top gain, but I really hope not. Plus I'm getting married in like 7 months, so if I want some toys, maybe I should buy them now! LOL

I was just curious on some of the board's thoughts on the XXX, 6505, comparable alternatives, or maybe just equally random thoughts relating to one or more of the topics above. LOL

Thanks all.

I'm looking to purchase one of these for home use.

Appellate Court Awards Victory to Paul Reed Smith Guitars (PRS) Over Gibson

In a long-pending trademark dispute between PRS Guitars and Gibson Guitars Corp., the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit today reversed a lower court decision and ordered the dismissal of Gibson's suit against PRS. The decision also immediately vacates the injunction prohibiting the sale and production of PRS’s award winning Singlecut® Guitar. Paul Reed Smith Guitars announced today that it will immediately resume production of its Singlecut® guitars.

Paul Smith, the founder of PRS, stated “We are delighted that the appellate court affirmed what we and the industry have long known: the PRS Singlecuts® are musical instruments of the highest quality that would never be confused with a competitor’s product.”

In the litigation, Gibson alleged that concert goers in a smoky concert hall might not be able to differentiate a PRS Singlecut® from a Gibson Les Paul. The appellate court rejected that trademark theory out-of-hand, emphasizing Gibson’s concession in court arguments that “only an idiot” would confuse the two products at the point of sale.

William Coston, PRS lawyer, observed that the decision is a vindication of PRS’ meritorious defense of unfounded allegations: “We agree with the Court and Gibson’s own counsel that 'only an idiot' would be confused". Sadly, the injunction lasted too long and the court process was too long and costly, depriving consumers of the right to choose between the PRS Singlecut® and the Gibson Les Paul. We hope that Gibson will now compete in the marketplace and not use litigation to obtain unfair advantage.

Here's yer poll.

I dug out this old friend yesterday when I was rearranging my game, err ummm room. Anyone who knows that referance is a GOOD friend of mine. It's a late '70's Mighty Mite (Wayne Charvel) Star with, I'm told, a Performance or Boogie Body neck. Both are Birds Eye Maple.
Original pre '82 Floyd too. Star is a howler for more reasons than one.







I need to tweak on this and get it really playable again. The pickup, an old '70's Dimarzio Super Distortion is intensly microphonic. I'm thinking about a trem spaced Duncan maybe a distortion or Custom 5 but I need something to tame the brightness of all that Bird's Eye Maple.

Life IS Good!!!

i ordered an iPOD nano last night and it should get here soon. so

exited. sorry if u think this post is useless but i always post here

when i'm anxious waiting for something music related.

Hey,

I was looking at the baby dean from hell for my son for christmas but I can seem to find any pricing on it anywhere. I though about going to the local dean dealer but they are idiots.... had to explain what the "F" in MLF stood for!!! So if anybody knows the pricing or a good online dealer that I can talk to I would appreciate it..... You can PM me the price since I know its not right to post pricing in an open message! Thanks!!

So tonight Jammer told me that Hans left... that's sad. I read all the posts from both of the threads, and when I was done, he asked me what I thought. All I can think is how sad it is that everyone has to blow up the way they did.... Come on guys, When Jammer first showed me the forum, I thought about how cool it was to be able to get so tight with so many different people, and how neat it was to be able to be free with your thoughts (albiet tasteful). I asked a lot of silly questions, and everyone took me seriously, and helped me out. But what is the most sad of all is that everyone here is so quick to judge. People here getting judged by what country they are from? Okay, so we are all proud of where we are from, and we all have different gripes about the prices we pay... but upping a price, no matter how high or low it was to begin with, is disruptive. What does it matter who pays the most? I am sure we all have very strong feelings about all the political issues at hand, and since everyone is entitled to their own opinion, why fight over it? Agree to disagree. Fighting over who gave more money to Katrina victims? I know that I for one don't care who gave the most money, or who sent in five more troops than the other, what matters is that the people and the city got HELP. Because everyone pulled together to work towards a greater cause. So why the fighting?? And why the intense, flaming comments about others views? This board used to be fun to look at, and I got a lot of good info, as well as a lot of good laughs.... and now everyone is so d*mn angry that people feel they have to leave? And others are ridiculed and jabbed at? Come on guys, can't you just put it all behind and realize that in a way, everyone who posted to those threads bear some guilt? Either egging on the arguing, or purposefully being rude... So instead of continuing to act like this, and lose forum members, and p*ss off others, why not go back to being a truly welcoming, KICK ASS forum that you were when I first stopped by??

i HAVE BEEN DOING RESEARCH ON THIS AND FOUND THIS INTERESTING LITTLE NUGGET BY THE MR ED ROMAN. HE IS A COCKY PRICK BUT HE KNOWS HIS OATMEAL.. ENJOY..


Bolt on Necks Have Gotten a Bad Rap

By Ed Roman

Many players assume that to build a good guitar it should have a glued on neck. I for one definitely do not believe that. Just because most companies charge extra for that option I think people just assume that it’s better because it usually costs more. I am going to attempt to dispel that myth. In fact I personally think that a normal set neck is the absolute worst way to construct an electric guitar!

It actually costs less to glue in a neck than to bolt one in correctly. Gluing up a neck is pretty basic. You apply glue inside the neck joint, slide the neck in and clamp it down. A bolt in neck requires a lot more work, there is no room for a sloppy fit like on a glue in neck. The cost of stainless bolts and press fittings are far higher than the cost of a little glue. The labor factor requires 4 holes drilled and countersunk. The tolerances are extremely tight on a good bolt on neck where the tolerances are far less important with the application of glue. If you make a mistake and drill incorrectly it’s time to throw away the body on a glued up neck there are no holes to drill and less chances of a mistake.

I know, I know it’s been done that way for 60 or 70 years! why change now? Why not keep our heads buried in the sand and continue thinking like we did in the 50’s & 60’s ?

Any luthier will tell you that the neck breakage occurs more on set neck guitars than all other guitars combined. The fact is I have repaired less than 15 bolt on necks in 32 years. I have repaired well over 2000 set necks and at any given time there are probably at least 6 of them broken in my shop.

First of all there is absolutely nothing wrong with a bolt on or bolt in neck as long as it’s done right. I must stress the part about it being done right !!!!!

The glue between the neck & body of a guitar will prevent 60% to 70% of high end tone transference. For example, try to get a funky nasal ducktone twang on a glued in neck guitar. It won’t happen.

Bolt on necks got their bad reputation during the 70’s when companies were making them with ill fitting or loose neck joints. A loose neck joint causes instability and detracts horribly from tone quality. A loose neck joint will also cause tremendous loss of sustain. Some companies in the 70’s were mass producing guitars as fast as they could and were simply not paying attention to the neck joint! The necks were not fitted correctly and in many cases the strings were actually hanging off the edge of the neck.

A lot of criticism is leveled at the 3 screw neck mounting plates of the era. Personally I like the concept of the tilting neck which of course is only available with a three bolt neckplate.

Thanks to modern machinery and woodworking techniques neck joints are a lot better & tighter today. We now know much more about guitar construction than we used to. Guitars in general are a lot better today, even the Mexican ones are better than some of those USA guitars from the 90’s. A tight neckjoint equals a good guitar !!!

The neckjoint is the heart of the guitar, If the neckjoint is set up properly the guitar WILL always sound better.

In my shop we make it a rule to mount each neck so tightly that it’s almost a force fit. The technician should be able to physically pick up the guitar by the neck so that the body is suspended. The pressure and the fit alone should be enough to hold the body to the neck.

My sure fire test is to take a thin guitar pick and try to slide it between the neck and the body. If I can get the pick into the crack then I know the guitar will be lacking in tone & sustain.

Synopsis

Bolt On Vs. Bolt In

Both ways work very well as long as you get a tight neck fit. The bolt in like the Quicksilver is superior because there is no protruding flange to bolt the neck onto. The neck actually bolts in through the back of the guitar. Consequently you get better stability, even more tone & sustain and as an added bonus you can reach higher up the neck. More notes, more better sounding notes !!!!



The Quicksilver goes one better, The Quicksilver actually incorporates the rhythm or neck pickup right into the neck joint. To my knowledge no other company affixes one pickup directly to the tongue of the neck and the other one directly to the body. We have been doing this modification to PRS guitars for more than 10 years. It really works well on a PRS the difference is noticeable even for a novice player. The modification is completely invisible and you cannot tell it has been done except by listening to it. We do it to set neck models and to Bolt In models. Personally I think it works best on a Bolt In Model but even a novice can easily hear the difference on a set neck version of a PRS.



Question

Why Are Bolts Better Than Glue ?

1, Because you can get them much tighter than glue.

2. Tightness means you get direct wood to wood contact with no glue to dampen tone transference.

3, The tight fit means much greater neck stability.

4, Bolts allow for adjustability.

5, Easier and much cheaper to repair if a problem occurs.



When is glue better than bolts ?

1. Glue is better because it's much cheaper to do. Tolerances don't have to be exact. You can simply slather in a wad of glue, and squeeze the neck into the gooey glop of tone dampening glue. Clamp it down tight and presto! now you have still another

I am currently away from my case, but I am curious, what is the size of a Dean Hardcase, like one for an ML lets say, I need the measurements of length, width, depth...any helpers?

I have a spare duckbill neck and today I've come to the conclusion that it really needs a telecaster style body to go with.

The neck is 25.5" scale so pretty much any fender pocket spec should fit as far as I can tell.

Prefer something solid wood on the cheaper end of the spectrum..

Anyone?

Bueller?

Can somebody help me get a visual for a project I am working on, please?
Here's what I need to see:

Can you cut out the chrome letters and add expanded metal through the resulting "holes?"




And conversely, can you cut out the flat part and just leave the letters with expanded metal as a background?

I would really appreciate it!! Thanks in advance.

Here's another pic, if ya need....



I scored a super-ultra-mega-hella-cool swap deal!!!
I traded this:

For this:

I play classical guitar. I'm a singer, keyboardist, percussionist, woodwind, & strings aficionada. I've tried the electric guitar, but are there and or is there different techniques on approaching/mastering the electric guitar? I kind of get bored with the treble clef, only. Singing, on the other hand, I NEVER get tired of. What kind of pedagogy is possible for a classical-guitarist to apply to the electric ~HEAVY-***METAL***~ guitar? Thanks.

Tomorrow is Day Seven of the "Jim Goes Cold Turkey" Project.

From a pack of smokes a day for fifteen or so years to nothing.

I'm fine. Really.

The temper is just a little short, but nothing worse than usual. If it's edible, it's fair game. Cooked or not. I've drank enough water to bloat like a whale and make my molars float. I can notice the improved breathing already.

It's not the physical addiction nearly as much as breaking the overall habit of it. Oh, the withdrawal is there, though. Walked around light headed as hell last Friday.

If any of you folks feel like blowing off some Forum Aggression, send it my way. I'll take the distraction and vent some of my own in the process.

Well....I understand that Jay (ba the Hutt) is a busy man....so I need to find a new site where I can proudly display my guitar collection. I used to have the "pointy" site link in my email signature for all my virtual buddies to check out, but it is so outdated that I just removed it all-together.

This is the only other cool alternative I've run across so far: http://www.collectguitars.com/index.php
Any of you cats have your axes hanging there? Or anywhere else?

Unfortunately, I don't forsee adding to my collection anytime soon.... but it'ld be cool to have an organized/centralized thing like that again. It would also be very cool for all of *us* to have a place to put up our collections and then be able to include the link our forum signatures! That way, anybody at anytime could scope your stuff without having to fish through threads and beg for pics!! I honestly mean no offence to Jay in any shape, form or fashion!! I loved the pointyguitars site--hell, I have two shirts and gave away a ton of stickers to help promote the place while feeding my own ego!! I wish I had bought it when I had the chance... ...but I bought an ML-Select instead!!!

So, in closing...(haha)...anybody have any suggestions or thoughts on linking to *our collections* in our sig's??

I always liked the looks of these and this guy has them cheap (or should I say Cheep cheep)

For the pointy guitar lovers out there...this is a guitar that was posted on another forum that I thought I’d share.
No, it’s not a Moser. Yes, that’s a Zebra wood fretboard.

Now all I need to do is find a really cheap ML-X with a floyd, dust off my airbrush find some paints and I'm all set

And The Good stuff!



I have A tone of pic's but it's Late AndIm going to bed

First off,I have to say that I'd never met Darrell in person,but,as it turned out,that was my fault. My best friend in the world is Mike Wengren,who just happens to be the drummer for Disturbed. We've been best friends for close to 20 years now. Anyway,acouple years ago I got a phone call from Mike about going on a fishing trip on Lake Michigan with Dime and Vinnie. I guess they were renting a boat for the day,but being that I'm a carpenter and we were going up that day(meaning we were building the second story walls and roof structure)I couldn't take the day off. That was my chance to meet the brothers. Anyway,long story cut in half,I asked Mike to get me autographs instead. What I got was very cool. I got an autographed business card from their stripclub from Vinnie,and from Dime I got a handful of his picks. Actually have them locked up in my safe. Jumping forward,I got an early morning phone call on Dec. 8th,telling me that Dime was killed. It hadn't even hit the news yet. We sat on the phone for hours,just talking about Dime. Terrible day. Well,Mike ended up going to the wake and funeral,and the next time I saw him he gave me the funeral pamphlet,which is also in my safe. Anyway,there is no real point to this story,other than the fact that I kick myself in the a** for not taking the day off. But,then again,who would've figured,right?!

I'm coming into some money in about 3-4 weeks and will be looking for a new guitar and amp. I'll have $1000 total, and really want a good amp so I'm trying to keep the guitar at or under $500. In your esteemed opinion, what's the best Dean I can get for that, new or used? NO pointy guitars, except maybe a V or Z select. You guys know I like Strat and LP shaped guitars so the EVO and import Hardtail lines are right up my alley. OK let 'er rip! What's the best $500 Dean out there for me???

I was informed late yesterday afternoon that my nephew, who you may remember was also our drummer passed away. This was the result of an automoblie accident, sorta. He has been on life support for a month but was brain dead. It seems the driver wrecked the truck on purpose, she is now facing a homicide charge. Adam was friend, family, and a very talented young man. I miss him terribly. Please all of you wear your seat belts you never know when you may really need them. The world is a little darker now, we miss his light.

you can't tell s#%t about a guitar by the serial number if its made in Korea. Its just random numbers.

Hey guy's Im new around here And Im just Woundering how many pic's per post are we Aloud

I want to do something nice for the Guitar loveing Guy's on the Forum

hehehe Have Fun!

My local music store now sells Dean!

Right now they only have a playmate, baby V and an evo Dragster and supposedly they can only get the lower tier stuff in atm.
How does that process work, is it scaled up by volume or is there a way to put in a good word for them?

Ok I thought I would dig this old thing up and show it off!! Now What do you guys think I should do with it A 7-string, 8-string, 6-sring, This thing has been siting for A while now and I have not even sanded the side's so it's still A bit rough

Oh and Ya im sorry About the Shity Pic's this wood in person Is just WILD

i didnt think we were gonna break 111, but now its 125...

Ok...I don't know if anyone here will care at all, but I need help.

Well to start things off...I used to be depressed, to the point where'd I'd scar my arms and try to kill myself.

Well about 4 months ago I got the internet back after a year...and found a friend I thought I'd lost forever...and we started to fall in love. (Please don't lecture me on this, no she isn't a pedo, no she IS who she says she is, I really do know her, have done for 3 years.)

Well eventually we fell in love and began going out.

Yes...long distance relationships don't work right? Well I don't need to hear that...no offense guys but right now I don't.

Well, I find out that she's actually bisexual and been having grox with her friend for about 6 months now.

Well her friend would kill herself if she didn't get physical love, and my girlfriend was feeling like a frigging tool...feeling used and depressed.

Now I left this problem up to her, since I didn't consider it cheating as she had no choice, but I didn't want to force her to stop...I wanted her to be free to choose.

I've been slowly getting depressed again, since I'm 16 and never had a girlfriend (I feel no shame in admitting this), I don't know why, I'm not ugly, I don't stink, I'm not THAT fat...(maybe 15 pounds over weight) but no girl has ever liked me. None. Ever.

So I start talking to her, and she says she'll wait for me...she wants me to go out with this girl I'm attracted to. This girl who talks to me, who seems to actually like me.

Well, I find out tonight she reeeeeallly likes my best friend, who's the nicest guy EVER, and he has no feelings for her.

I also find out she would never, EVER touch me. Ever.

So I feel bad right?

It get's worse.

I find out my girlfriend has started having grox again. This time by choice. She doesn't feel bad anymore.

And now I feel like suicide. I really do.

And so for some reason, I come to you guys. Why...I don't know.
Maybe it helps to type I don't know.

This is some little thing I started on some other forums. Basically, you just say what you are doing at the moment.

Here's Mine

Its not a Dean but it's so cool I had to show it. Its a Custom USA Hamer Standard. Pretty sweet axe! Cant wait to play it!

hey guys..new pantera background
like it?

Here's the deal guys, I go to a catholic school and I need to get 5 hours of community service in this semester. I thought it would be a great idea to play guitar at the masses every Wednesday. Each mass counts as one hour. The bad news is I'll probably be the only one playing and I am scarred of messing up in front of all those people. I have the music(3 songs) that I'm supposed to play at the mass this Wednesday, but there are missing pages, it's not in the format I will be playing it in, and I don't know how to play all the non-basic chords. I really needs some ideas, should I just tell them I won't be able to do it this time around, because my guitar broke? How can I learn all those complicated chords and how can I learn to write my own songs? Also I can't sing very well, but I want to learn how, are there any good online singing lessons that are free? Thanks in advance.

LOVE THEM OR HATE THEM THE SINGER IS GOOD. HERE HE IS SINGING WITH MOTLEY CRUE DOING HOME SWEET HOME. DUDE HAS A GREAT VOICE. HIS CRAPPY BAND HAS SOLD OVER 30 MILLION CD'S WITH IT WORLDWIDE.

EDITED !!!!!!! THE LINK NO LONGER WORKS.

You ever wonder if this is going to happen when your wife found out you bought another dean???

http://www.frazpc.pl/b/114249

OK guys! I saw frippin Sodom! we left friday morning, drove 410 km's to Hannover. We booked a hotel there so we checked in and we left to search the venue. luckily we found it pretty soon, it was an old factory but it was pretty quiet still 18:00 though....we even asked a lady if Sodom was really playing but she confrmed.

Anyway we looked for a nice restaurant close to the venue and found a nice greek restaurant, but first we encountered this!



SO after the meal we went to the hall, and there were quite some people waiting outside already most had brought thier own beer LOL! we could get in at 19:30 so first thing we did was check out the merchandise and we bought some shirts. Then we had a nice german beer in a comfortable sofa in the bar at Faust.




The First band started pretty soon they were called WINTERDOME, but they were boring as %$#@!, some kinda gothic/folk metal I didn't like it one bit! After them FATAL EMBRACE played and the hall started to fill up a little, they were pretty cool old school thrash metal but the sound from the PA was not too good....and in the end they just lacked the songs Sodom has.

ANyway the Faust was a prett big club with a capacity of about 1,000 people, it wasn;t a sellout but at the time VENDETTA took the stage it was pretty crowded, I think about 750-800 people inside! VENDETTA was ultra cool, I only knew their old recordings from the 80's "brain damage" and "go and live...stay and die" they were tight and played killer old school german technical thrash, their bassplayer was very very skilled! They introduced some new songs which are promising for the new album, I just hope they'll find a record label to release it. The PA sound had gotten pretty decent by now BTW!










BUT NOW! it was time for the masters of German thrash themselves, it was crowded, and sweaty hot in the club! they people started to chant "SODOM, SODOM!!" killer! The sounds was crystal clear and I have to say I never saw such a good SODOM show when they started out with "among the weirdkong" from the "M-16" album a huge moshpit was created which lasted for the full 70-minute set!!!!! and an intense moshpit it was....I was soaked after just 5 minutes LOL!

Now they do not only have the best songs in German thrash but they are shure as hell not the messy, sloppy bunch anymore they used to be in the past, they are SERIOUS competition for DESTRUCTION and KREATOR in this form on the live front! Bobby was tight as hell and he has grown tremendously as a drummer after 10 years with SODOM, Bernamann as very good too, banging constantly, and TOm.....well he's Tom shure one of THrash Metal's most iconic frontmen!

Second song was "The Vice Of Kiling" after that I lost it a bit in the pit but they played these songs: "outbreak of evil", "blasphemer", "witching metal", "sodomized", "Aber Bitte Mit Sahne", "Der Wachtturm", "Die Stumme Ursel", "Sodomy & Lust", "The Saw Is The Law", "Napalm In THe Morning", "Stalinorgel", "Bombenhagel" and maybe some more I don;t know anymore...the only letdown was they omitted "Agent Orange", "Nuclear Winter" and "Ausgebombt" but hey they were awesome! A special surprise came in the form of ANY BRINGS he came on stage and played four songs from his period with the band togheter with SODOM, but to be honest I didn;t like it too much they played the punky fun songs for the most part, I'd rather have heared "Agent Orange" or "Nuclear Winter" instead...

After the show there was the DVD presentation on a big screen, awesome stuff sadly only in German, they didn;t include the subtitles (we were in Hannover after all, but no worry I speak German pretty well), awesome trailer, pretty long too at least 20 minutes. Lots of interviews and old stuff from gigs and TV appearances, interviews with fellow musicians and ex-members, Label bosses etc etc! The Concert Film was AWESOME quality you guys thought "One Night In Bangkok" was good? Just check thsi stuff!

Anyway here's some pics:






















OK we were back at the Hotel at 2:00 AM pretty drunk of course, we went to sleep but only very short since we had to check out before 9:00 (!!!!!!).
After breakfast and checking out we checked the citty centre of Hannover but it was pretty boring that early in the morning and we could find no interesting CD shops....

So Off to Schrecksbach were TANKARD played last night, stopped over in Kassel (it was another 250 km drive) and had something to eat. We checked in at a hotel in Alsfeld 12 km from Schrecksbach first an hour rest since we were pretty tired, of course we had a couple of pints again that afternoon in Kassel at lunch! So we ate something at the local McDonalds and off to Bullblast festival 2005 with TANKARD headlining.

WTF! we were really in the middle of nowhere, only farms and fields and VERY tiny villages....but it was true in the "Mehrzweckshalle" in the "cantre" of the 3,300 population village of Schrecksback there was some activity! It turned out GREAT! theere were quite a lot of people though the hall was probably suited to hold 1,500 people and of course there werent that many, but it was acceptable busy....

IT was awesome we were checking out the first band as Gerre walked by and he recognized us and immediately took us backstage and gave us beer and stuf, so we had a killer time with the band and Gerre (he is really crazy!) backstage and the organizers were very very nice to us too...

TANKARD played a killer and VERY long set with all the classics and a few rare songs like "nation over nation" and one song from the "THE TANKARD" album killer performance and of course we got very very drunk! after saying goodbye to the guys from TANKARD and the organizers we went back to the hotel were we arrived at 3:15 AM, and this morning at 10:30 we drove 500 km's back to Holland...after a KILLER thrash weekend!
















Oh BTW here's the new SODOM shirt and the tourposter which we bought at the show!

I had a thread a few days ago about a 25th Anniversary Caddy I had bought from Dave at B&T, there has been a problem and I have a question or 2. The problem has nothing to do with Dave as everyone knows he is the best to deal with, it is with the guitar I was supposed to buy. Dean had contacted Dave and told him my guitar was damaged (neck cracks, I don't know if it is in the finish or the wood), so Dave offered me another 25th Caddy. I am having some nagging questions for TC Caddy owners out there. I am taken with beauty of the guitar but there were some things that bothered me about my Czech Caddy and I am wondering if the TC will have the same quirks. My Czech Caddy was neck heavy which bothered me and the strap button on the back made the guitar roll forward a bit as well. Does the heavier body of the TC Caddy help either of these problems? Was the rolling forward thing caused by my somewhat ample mid-section or does it happen to everyone? Sorry for this long post but I do not want to spend a lot of cash and be stuck with the same problems that made me sell my Czech Caddy. Thanks in advance for any replys I receive, I want to give Dave an answer on Monday morning.

Thank you all

Nice guitar with some great sounds. Someone along the way swapped a Gotoh for the original tailpiece. I wrapped the strings around on the new set I put on yesterday. I had already shot these pictures. Now it sounds great and the string tension is sweet with the wrap job.

Okay, tell me if you have experienced this, cause its really pissing me off. when pull the whammy bar up as far as i can, at a certain point, some of the notes Im pulling die out. does anybody know how i can fix this?

A "must" for any Dime fan.Got mine today.Lots of pics,posters and Vinnie's first interview since Dime's passing.

i saw some awesome dime trib. tats and wanted to see what u guys got for ink jobs, i have none so i cant post

I am doing a dime tribute song at school which is a mix of diary of a madman, cowboys from hell, and floods. I was wondering if you guys have any great pictures of dime I could use, because I am going to play them like a slideshow behind me while I play. Thanks guys.

i know this has been hashed and rehashed.. but i really like this guitar... anyone interested.. i hear we only need six people to get the ball rolling... i'll talk to dave at B&T to see what he thinks the cost will be...

Alright here's the situation. I sprung for the cakewalk recording software last night. I can get it to play the samples and s#%t back to me and i can get it to record my guitar. But there are ass loads of problems. I can't get it to play the samples back while i'm playing my guitar and when i record my guitar the damn level is to high and i have to play at extremely low volumes. I have three different drivers and i'm not sure which one to use. Somebody help. How should i set this s#%t up?

Hello,

Was wondering if anyone have, or have tested this guitar?
Here is a link to music123 selling the guitar:
http://www.music123.com/Washburn-DimeVPRO-i228280.music

Also, if anyone have any good pictures of the guitar, I would appreciate it.

Thanks alot for any info,
Graziano.

(I know it is not a dean, and alot of people here have problems with Washburn, but I do not wish to start a huge discussion on this matter. I post it here, cause the W-forum is sheit!)

What are your thoughts on the different packaging (or none) for the CD’s you buy.

I like the digipaks. You rarely see them (due to production cost) but I think they look professional, especially if they have the high-gloss finish that protects them from residual wear and sun exposure.

I'm asking because the results here might determine how I package the next CD I'm working on...

I've owned my share of amps over the years (still have quite a few!) but when Kustom announced they were coming out with the new Coupe line.... I just had to have one!

My good old friend Jayba was happy to oblige. Jay shipped out a beautiful red 36 coupe and it was everything I thought it was going to be... read on my brethren!

Both the 36 coupe and 72 coupe were designed by amp guru James Brown.

36 watts -all tube (2-6L6 and 4-12ax7's)
self biasing
two channel
real spring reverb
standby switch
external speaker jack
effects loop
birch cab construction
impedance selector
footswitch

Did I mention the trademark tuck and roll??!! Too cool!

Great amp with fantastic TONE! The clean channel is remarkable! The best outside of my Rivera twin. The dirty channel has the right vintage crunch that I'm accustomed to. All this in a 36 watt package that can be turned up without blowing out my windows in my guitar room LOL!

The best thing about this little beauty... the price! If you're looking for a reasonably priced all tube amp....Reach out to Jay for a quote... you won't be disappointed!

This just had to suck!!!!

The new Kate Bush single gets debuted on BBC radio. Her first release in over 12 years.

Kate is incredible. In my opinion the most talented musician on the planet.

15 REASONS WHY ALCOHOL SHOULD BE SERVED AT WORK...
1. It's an incentive to show up.
2. It leads to more honest communications.
3. Employees tell management what they think, not what they want to hear.
4. It encourages car pooling.
5. Increase job satisfaction because if you have a bad job, you don't care.
6. It eliminates vacations because people would rather come to work.
7. It makes fellow employees look better.
8. It makes the cafeteria food taste better.
9. Bosses are more likely to hand out raises when they are wasted.
10. Salary negotiations are a lot more profitable.
11. Employees work later since there's no longer a need to relax at The bar.
12. It makes everyone more open with their ideas.
13. Eliminates the need for employees to get drunk on their lunch break...
14. Employees no longer need coffee to sober up.
15. Sitting "Bare ass" on the copy machine will no longer be seen as gross.

(YNGWIE MALMSTEEN/MICHEAL ANGELO BATIO) HI YALL MY QUESTION TO YOU GUYS IS WHICH GUITAR PLAYER YOU THINK IS MORE MUSCIAL,I BELIEVE THEY BOTH PLAY VERY FAST BUT SINCE THEY BOTH PLAY FAST , THATS NOT MY POINT RIGHT NOW..IM TALKING ABOUT WHICH GUITAR HERO IS MORE SOMETHING, I CANT FIND THE WORD ,I WOULD LOVE TO SAY THAT YNGWIE IS THE BEST IN ALL BECAUSE HE WAS BASICALLY THE MAN WHO CREATED THIS STYLE,BUT YET SOME PEOPLE DISLIKE HIM BECAUSE DOES NOT SHOW" ARTIST PROGESSION" OR SOEMTHING LIKE THAT,AND I KINDA AGREE WITH THAT,BUT ON THE OTHER HAND MICHEAL IS POPULAR HERE INTHE U.S., I THINK ITS COOL THAT HE CAN PLAY 2 GUITARS AT THE SAME TIME AND PLAY FAST ON EACH HAND,BUT SOME OF HIS SONGS IN MY OPINION,SOUND LIKE OPERATOR THINGYS WHEN THEY PUT YOU ON HOLD{DONT KILL ME FOR SAYING THAT}ANYWAYS I HOPE YOU RESPOND ,THIS IS SOMETHING I WOULD FIND INTERESTING!!!!!!!>>>>>R.I.P DIME<<<<<

I just got a new and it plays great and I do love the sound, that is until I go to my practice space where for some reason the radio interference is so great (with only this device) that i can't really heard its sound. No joke. Is this a issue with only mine, or is there a way to correct this?

I thought that they only sold the design rights to Washburn...

Hey guys


I'm a HUGE Nile fan, I have been since 1994 when I received thier self titled demo when they wern't really so much death metal.

anyhow, I have seen alot of pics with them and see that they play Some nice TC dean guitars, Karl has a really nice ML with a scalloped board, looks really badass. Anyhow I wanted to know if anyone else likes them here? I really wish they could get into Canada, but I'll go to buffalo to see them I suppose!

Let me know what you think, I've always been into egyptology and this is cool because they incorporate some very cool sounds!

anyhow

Rita now a Category 4 and headed your way. ...good luck.

I don't know if this is the right place to ask,but I was wondering if Dean would ever make the Dime-O-Flage with a setneck? All I see are bolt-ons. Thanks.

I know it's been awhile since I've popped in, but here's what's been going on. We've been in the field since the beginning of the month and it looks like that's pretty much where we are going to be for the next 1 to 2 months. I do have a computer again, so as soon as time allows I should be around more. Effective Nov. 1, my promotion to E-6 will be official. I'll check in when I can, which I don't know when or how often that will be for the next little bit.

Ok im selling or possibly trading my 79 patent pending v here for cash or maybee the right amp head.I just had the frets dressed by billy at guitar electronics and set up with 10s the frets r proubly a med height,guitars in great shape i think i have the original pickup rings around here somewhere,guitar has the original dimarzios.the tuners r grovers the original pots have been changed out to.thought i would offer it here first before she goes to ebay if your interested pm me your email and ill send more pics or if you got a good amp (metal sound)you might want to trade.

LOL!

PLease forgive my ignorance here,but how do you join the "DOA?" I can't find where this is done...

There will be no happyness , laughing , smiling, giggling, snickering, joking, general guffawing or hippity hoo alowed in this forum..

only serious guitar posts wil be allowed.

Apparently some people here prefer that sort of thing..


so let me start it out...

Can anyone describe in 100 words or less the differnce between a saggy crotch mlf and a non saggy?

"So he... wound up... KNEE DEEP... KNEE DEEP IN BLOOD..."



If those lyrics are familiar to you, there is no doubt that they bring a smile to your face. And if you were lucky enough to have been at the Middle East Club, in Cambridge, Massachusetts on a perfect Saturday night last year, September 18th, you probably were not able to wipe that smile off your face for days. On that night, Boston's premier metal band WARGASM reunited in front of a packed crowd, for the first time in a decade, to once again crush with their powerful brand of metal.



Playing songs spanning all three Wargasm records (Why Play Around? - 1988, Ugly – 1993, and Suicide Notes – 1994), guitarist Rich Spillberg, brother Barry on drums, and lead singer/bassist Bob Mayo pounded through a seamless set that left everybody there emotionally touched.



"People's love for Wargasm hit me like a ton of bricks. The intense passion I felt coming from them all nailed me right in the chest...", said Mayo. "The night was spiritual, as if the whole club was in dire need to be brought back to that time", said Rich, referring to the early days of Wargasm, when their new sound fed metal followers starving for something beyond the hair metal bands that the clubs had to offer.



The reunion show, promoted by Rawkstars Inc. (www.rawkstars.org) founder Jonathan "JJ" Jacobs, was filmed and digitally recorded to be included in "the quintessential Gasm release", according to Rich. "By the time we played our last shows in '95, DVDs weren't even around yet! As the rehearsals for the reunion show progressed, we felt we should definitely capture the show on film, and once the editing of that footage began, the idea grew to include a historical picture of the band, to give everyone a good look at who we are."



The DVD is set to include the entire reunion show, along with a documentary about the band, complete with vintage live footage and other candid footage of the band. Then, of course, there will be the "extras".



"We’re making sure the DVD includes everything, so it'll definitely be worth the wait!", said Barry.



Rich adds, "Anyone interested in finding out more about the release date for the DVD should send an email to wargasm_dvd@yahoo.com .

You'll be the first to know..."

TIKI MOFOS

has anyone here ever done any binding??? i am thinking of doing a solid redwood tele and i want it bound... thinking of trying it my self...

and on a completely different subject does anyone have a pic of that redwood ml that was at DOA last year..thanks..

don't all trip on yourselves bidding on this!

you'll need a REALLY healthy sense of manhood security to play THIS gothic treasure.

Either that or you're ready to marry Richard Simmons!
He was last seen in the matching jumpsuit.

I used to think only me and Dizz were lost in the 60's enough to like puple guitars.

But with the broad acceptance, h ell, almost HYSTERIA over the pimpburst DOA V

I think it's time for the evil lookin black guitar weilding metal shredders around here to REALLY step up

and TAKE ON the PINK

(I know - I went there , too .. but mind outa the crotch for second here - we're talkin a color, not female genitals, guys)

really - would it not take MASSIVE security in ones manhood - to play this in a Metallica , Megedeth, Slayer, or Pantera cover band?

what a challenge!

and it's $150 BIN!!

WHERE"S TOM???

it's got
High Output Ripping TM Bridge Pickup
Vintage Series Neck Pickup

those are WAY better than those Lindy Fralin, Rio Gande, DiMarzio and the rest of those low output girly man pups!

this is the deal of all deals - I hear this thing is comparable to a Driskill!!

Guys, I'm sorry to inform that I've been dragged away from this awesome forum.
I wont be able to come here as often as something very serious as come up in my personal life...















I'VE GOT MY FIRST DEAN! A FANTASTIC 79 ML!!!! and I will be playing the hell out of it in the next few days!

First of all a huge "THANK YOU" to Dave at Bass & Treble for making me one (if not the first!) proud Dean owner in Portugal.

Let me tell you as first impressions, it is by far the best guitar I've played... and yes, that includes some like LPs Standards, american Strats, etc...

It's a mighty mighty axe!


EPI Folk.......ARBOR "baby" V (setneck w/ Dimebucker).......DEAN ML79.......HAMER (EMG's 81/85, Wilkinson wraparound bridge, Sperzel locking tuners - soon to be an all-black guitar).......STRAT RIP-OFF (w/ rip-off EMGs... hey it was my first guitar ever!)










...and my project LP copy that will look something like this after finished (I hope):

Im sure most of you know he lives in Houston and it ain't lookin too good for them right now. I've tried calling for last 2 days with no luck, phone lines are jammed. I figure he is outta there by now but just makin sure the Brave Dave household is OK as well as the other Texas people here.

This guy has some great looking stuff.

I hope and pray that You and your family will be safe and unharmed. I hope this storm decides to fade, but if not....

Please, If there are any DOA or Dean Bro's and Gals that would like to make a trip, if evacuated or worse, I have a room available in my home's available for anyone in need.

PM me if this would help you or anyone of family if needed.

I pray all of you will be safe.

I was just wondering what stoopid things other people do for fun, Jackass stlye. The most recent thing I did was putting out my friends cigs on my arm. (Only did 2 ) But I did manage to do half of one in one go, only problem was that I got huge chihuahua lumps. Eugh! I had to pop them, with a guitar string!

"1 pack of strings. That will be $5.35. Can I get you anything else?"

"Yes, I'll take an SSL AWS 900".

"Your total is $80,005.35. Will that be cash or charge?"

Damn! My dream board is at Guitar Center. That would be so bizarre buying this ultimate gear from that place. It would be like buying a Time Capsule at 7-11.

does anyone know where I can get some Stevie Ray Vaughan sounding blues scales and chords

Here I am. This is my blog... I started this with a few crazy friends at work and am re-gaining interest in it.

Enjoy!

So what is the word? When are we gonna get to see the ML, Z, and Caddy? I mean, the V is kickass, but if I get one (which I think I will) I'll get an ML, so I'd kinda like to see it.

I did this in photoshop with the airbrush and an i pen.maybee i should get a real airbrush

does anyone have a rundown washburn 333, Dean (dime shape) or anything of that shape?? or just the body etc etc etc?? i am willing to buy it to restore. cheers Martyn

Some J&D wanna copy our Deans....


What a piece of crap, ugly monster...uhhhhh

Just look at the plate, just look at it!

ok...
someone not long ago was selling an EVO SS that'd been modded to have dual Vol & Tone pots....was that you, Mike?

i'm looking for info on possibly having that done on one of my EVO Premiums as far as cost, space in the controls route, damage to finish, etc....

and BTW, Dean, or Elliott.....if you decide to make a USA EVO like the Czech Premium with rosewood board (added warmth) and dual vol & tone pots....you'll have an 'LP killer' to compete with the best out there...

the other night i was bored and decided to kill some time since i couldnt sleep.... so i build an entire forum site and when i was designing the logo i used my dean usa pro hardtail...

just thought i would share since i thought it looked pretty cool...

Has anyone had a Kahler trem system installed on a Dean '79 series ML. Is it possible in the furture I'd like to have one with it on there. I had a '80's B.C. Rich Warlock with a Kahler and one the features I like best about it was the Kahler.

I'm planning on building a pedalboard soon and want to do a camo pattern on it.Anybody know how I could do this technique with spray cans because I'm too cheap to buy an airbrush?

I spent the day with a sixteen year-old virtuoso 5 string bass player, trading licks, throwing my very best at him, all day. He NEVER missed a step! We are gonna write and record some things. Kid can SING, too! My regular bass player is outta the picture again with personal problems, and my clock iz ticking, so I'm moving on.
I'm also bidding you all a fond farewell. I'm all about my Fenders and there's no place for me here. My pointy days are long gone, and this has become such a metal haven, that I need to split.
I think we all know it's for the best. I've got phone #'s and addresses for Jayba and Tom and Doc Larry, anyone else interested in keeping in touch shoot a P.M. in the near future.
My apologies to Steve at BRG and Mike. I don't think I'll be following thru with the purchases we were talking about. Sorry guys.
It's not a sad day, it's a happy one, I'm going down another musical avenue. I know I can be an argumentive a$$, and no body will miss that, eh?
I've had some great times hanging out here, lotsa cool memories!

Keep picking and grinning folks!
respectfully, your freindly neighborhood

deanmaniac!

is this the best place to buy guitars and stuff???number or anything???could this guy get me a randall vmax amp???

Ok this has only just started happening to me over the last coupla days (on and off....) i get elbow pains which cause numbness that extends up my forearm and a warm tingling sensation in my elbow, which kinda makes me feel like its to do wif the ulnar nerve somehow.... it is only present in my picking arms elbow, not my fretting hands elbow at all and i dont pick from the elbow, it's entirely from my wrist....

the only thing i can think of was that it is just because i have started practicing alot more than i used to over the last month or two... other than that nothing else is different.

just a precaution i guess, i get extra worried wen things like pain etc start occuring to my arm/hands as that affects my guitar playing which is a definate NO. anyway i appreciate all the help you can offer... thanks.

I kinda like the SGish horns but I've never seen one of these before.

I checked out Ed Roman's site today looks like he still offering the Blueburst series. Wants to have to have the 2006 version next year. Still offers the whole set of a ML, V and Z. I wish that more dealers offered them it was such a pain to get my V Bluebusrt off him. It was worth it but a pain. I may get a Bluebusrt ML next. Now that Gibson is now making the Dirty Fingers pickup again (the one I want was the John Sykes version now being made). I'd have that put in there.

OK - I would like to hear from those of you that play your guitars everyday for at least an hour or two. Those of you who bend your strings fairly hard.

How long do your frets last before your guitar needs a refret? One of the guitarists I play with seems to go through his every 2 years or so. They're not jumbos, just standard issue American Strat frets. He plays about 2 hours every day and is a big bender (blues player). He;s a one guitar man, so his one guitar see's a lot of playing time. He was thnking he seems to go through them quickly, so I thought I'd ask here.

I have heard several people talk about the possibility of the Dean import models being made in China. Is this something that is in the works? Anyone know?

My TC ML nut is graphite but I have seen others from that signed 50 guitar run that are bone. Did they just use what they had at the time? Was there no standard when they were making them?
Im not tying to make a stink about it or anything. Im just curious.

I got my TC CAddy fron Dave at B&T (gorgeous guitar) but there was no COA in the case. The guitar was shipped to Dave directly from the Dean factory, it was a 2003 leftover that was on the "hot list" of avaliable guitars. Dave is talking to Dean to see if they still have the COA there, if they do not does anyone know if they will print another one for me? Thanks in advance for your replys.

Last week I was at a Paco de Lucia concert.
It was great on many levels, the music,
setting, atmosphere, audience... Well here
is how it went:

First Paco came on to the stage and did
a couple of songs all by himself.
Then a couple with three singers and
the last song of the first half of the show
with a drummer, bass player, keyboard player,
second guitar and the formerly mentioned 3 singers.

After a 10 minutes recess they all came back
and delivered 2 ~20 minute killer flamenco tunes
and got a storm of applause from a standing and whistling
audience.

Like true flamenco stars they did an encore
song with amazing solos from all the players.
Man that bass player really could solo on his
5-string bass...

The concert was held in the old bullfighting
arena (Ventas) in Madrid. So the setting was
great for flamenco music. At aroung 11 pm,
the moon rose from behind the stage making
the scene quite nice and nothing short of romantic.
The atmosphere all through the concert was relaxed
and the players as well as the audience really
had a great time.

Man that cat can play his guitar...


Probably won't be getting the pulitzer with
this review, but hopefully something got
conveyed of the event.

Sorry to change the pace of the General Forum but I thought I'd talk about guitars.

There are several different camps here as with most forums or brand name guitars. We have the "Pointy Only", the "Not So Pointy", and the "Who Cares as Long as it's a Dean". I do think we miss a lot of the forum members here that appreciate a good guitar no matter what brand.

Oops, I got distracted by something shiny........ I was going to talk about guitars.

I love my Deans but am missing some sounds that I love from the Fender Strat three pckup set-up. I do have a problem with the layout of the Strat. The way I play, the controls are always in the way and I'm always banging them and changing the volume. I also like to rest my hand on the bridge and it just doesn't work right for me. So-------

Would anyone else be interested in a three single coil pickup Dean other than the Avalanche such as the EVO, Hardtail, Vendetta?
I'd love a Hardtail Select with the three single coils and 5 way selector. Anyone else?

I am thinking it may be time for the Dean Guitars Forum to institute an ignore feature. Perhaps User and/or Sub-Forum?

I don't know how easy or hard this may be to do, but I think it may alleviate some bad feeling going around lately.

Just a thought.

anyone got a recommendation for a travel guitar? I'm looking for something that'll fit in the airline overhead bin.

Martin backpacker? Washburn Rover? Something else?

Thanks.

There goes another TV Icon to that big syndication in the sky -"Sorry about that, chief'' - see ya 'round "Agent 86"

GONE FOR GOOD!

does anybody's thumb hurt when playing certain licks? when I play hollow or especially this love, my thumb hurts like CRAZY. i thought it mightve been from pressing too hard on the fretboard, but Its hard to play any other way. any suggestions?

I started a thread earlier about not getting a COA with my Caddy and I got spanked for lack of pics. I took these this evening (they are not great), it plays and sounds as good as it looks. (usually when someone else is playing it!)

Well, this year I'm actually going to put some(not much, but a little) effort into a costume. Do you guys have any ideas on what would be cool to scare the s#%t out of the people at school. I was thinking something to do with satanic logos, devil horns, etc.(btw t's a Catholic school.) Maybe something simpler like Jim Root from Slipknot, but I can't find any masks like his, or maybe something like a Kiss costume. Thanks in advance.

OK I'm thinking about getting someone a digital camera for Christmas, and would like some input on what kind to get. It needs to be somewhat easy to use, (hey the person is somewhat tech challenged). I know a lot of you are knowledgeable in this area, which is why I'm asking here. Thanks for any ideas!

Alright, here goes.

I'm thinking about building myself a rack but! I do not know anything about rackmounts. For example I do not know what are the good companies and witch are not... What I'm getting at here is, If you use rackmounts or know little things about them please post it.

Sorry if it's a messy paragraph but I'm really tired.

I'm assuming this is an MLX because it's a bolt-on, but I thought all MLXs came with dot inlays and no binding?

Any thoughts on when this was made? It's MIK (so serial number does me nothing), Grover tuners, and all hardware is chrome.



Also, will this fit in any ML case (if I were to buy it from someplace like Musician's Friend or Music123)? Research leads to to believe that it will.

Thanks everyone!

I don't think this has been posted yet and I forgot too. It's been 19 years since Cliff Burton died. R.I.P. man

Im not sure what I want to do with this design!

..we lost cliff. Seems like yesterday.

Has anybody ever played an Arion Metal Master, is it the same as a Digitech Metal Master? I found a GREAT deal on one and I was wondering if they're any good.

The newest rumor going around the ESP forum is that Dime was burried in a Kiss casket. They have this weird thing over there, where they say who ever died lately was burried in a Kiss casket, I don't get it. Was Dime really burried in a Kiss casket?

Im not too familiar with the TC's but by what I understand, they are made in USA and are capturing the same quality as vintage deans? Whats your opinion (those who own a TC AND/or have one or played one) vs the vintage Deans. Do the TC's come with the V neck the Dean was known for? Same specs as vintage as in necks, headstocks, bodies, hardware? Whats the deal?

Okay guys, Revolution Is My Name is stuck in my head and I love Voodoo Child, so it's time for a wah pedal. I'm think about the Crybaby From Hell or Zakk Wylde sig. wah. Which Crybaby From Hell is better? Which of the three should I go with? Thanks in advance.

See you there...

Guys, as you probably read on my other post (My birthday porn), I got my 79 ML.

I had Dave from B&T to install a Dimebucker and I love the neck pup, so no other changes will be made on the pup department, for now...
What I would really like to know is what other upgrades do you think I should make? To be honest, I really dont like the nut...

Does anyone have any pictures of a classick black 79 ML with black hardware?

I would like to see a set of transparent pup rings!
Has anyone ever thought of that before?

I was thinking masking tape but im not sure if that will crew up my finish or not.

I have and Idea and my idea is to make a Dean gerneral forum for evey one who just wants to talk about guitars mabey it should b a general guitar forum and not just a gernal Dean forum and then keep the gerneral forum as we know it for anythign not guitar every one who wants to talk more about guiars can stick to teh gerneral guitar forum if they want and they don't have to set fooot in the other one and if they think a thread is stupid in teh other foumr they can just not say that they can keep it to them sefs if they don't want fighting.

I found this scorpion in my hootch tonight. Its the biggest one Ive seen since Ive been here. Thats a water bottle he's in. He wasnt very impressed with me trying to catch him. Pretty cool huh?

I recently pickup up a deal on a pair of cherryburst 79s, a V and Z, mostly because it was just too good of a deal to pass up. As most of you know I enjoy trading guitars fairly frequently and always shopping for a great deal, but I haven't been much of a "pointy" guy, even though I have owned a couple.

I recently chronicled here all of the Deans I have gone through over the past 2 yrs or so, all MIKs and Czechs including pointies, non-pointies, acoustics, semi-hollows and bass, and let me just say that I have been duly impressed with the great VALUE in every one of them. That is to say, each model offers great quality respective to its price range. These two 79s are no exception. They both have a great feel to them and look terriffic. Though interestingly seem to have slightly different neck profiles. (Can somebody verify this or am I just crazy?)

Anyway, kudos to Dean and Elliot on great products in EVERY line. Utimately, THAT'S what this forum is all about. As for all of the nonsense that goes on, well I guess I've participated in my share of photoshop fun with gnomes, etc., but I'm glad to leave the policing that is necessary to the Brave One and his trusty sidekick Jimbo! Just for the record, I don't plan on running off because of somebody's opinion or some ridiculous posts. MY own Ignore feature works just fine!

So, props to Dean! Keep up the great work!

Possibly a really below 70 IQ type question,but I'll ask it anyway....can the strap button closest to the neck be moved? I"ve tried 3 different straps and they all seem to limit my movement to the higher frets. Has anyone else had this little dilemna,or just me? I was worried about moving it back because I thought it might throw off the balance. Help....please.

Probably a repost but here,

Is this just a neck from one for the bolt on Evos put onto the body of some wacky Les Paul mutant body?

Ok, I noticed the "myspace" thread the other day but didn't have much interest at the time. Then I spoke with Ben Chafin yesterday and he said he was on there (as Chafin Guitars) and he thought I should sign up and see what it's all about...maybe find a new niche of listeners

I was wondering if anyone had some info for me...

The scoop cut in the back, does anyone know if the Z or V have it too? I also was considering changing the hardware... I was thinking black, any opinions? Where can I get a another V plate from to match?

i was wondering what some of you have replaced the pickups that came with your dean with, and what sound were you looking for when you chose those pickups? (like band sound)

the last post turned into a flame war.. and i acccidentally erased all my pm's.. (yes i am a moron) .. one more time who is up for it..i had four possibly 5 last time.. and i think i can get them to do something about the access just give me a number of people ..i will get a price and.. i will work on ithe access through dave at b&t or our friends at Armadillo if need be..

thanks..

What a great double bill. Just scored some great seats to Aerosmith and Lenny Kravitz in November!!

I saw that Dean is putting out an inexpensive model of the Vendetta line with the Vedetta XM. What I find interesting is the wood choice. It is listed as Paulowinia wood. This is a fairly lightweight wood from the fastest growing or one of the fastest growing large trees, the Paulowinia tree otherwise called the "Empress" tree or "Princess" tree. This tree grows 12 ft tall in its 1st year and 25 ft. tall in 3 years !!! Also grows just about anywhere in any soil condition and is resistant to just about everything from poor environment to disease.
Anyway, the point is that this makes this wood an extremely economical choice for instrument building and all other commercial uses that it may be good for. I have never seen a guitar made of this stuff and have no idea whether it's a good tone wood at all. Has anyone heard of an instrument made of this stuff? I'm not in the market for another guitar right now but these Vendetta XM's ought to street at just a little over $100 (Probably China made like the Evo XM). I think I'm gonna snag one just to check out the wood. Does anyone have any experience with this wood at all or had a chance to check out the Vendetta XM yet? I haven't seen them out yet so ....

Sorry for the book.

THIS IS MY WET DREAM GUITAR I want it NOW!!!!!

Hey dudes,
Check the newest pickguard I made and put on my main guitar. Solid .062" alloy 5052 aluminum, anodized super gloss black, and engraved with my two favorite metal things - skulls and flames, hahaha! I call her the Darklord now... muahahaha....


like it? Don't? What do ya think?
I love it.

Want to talk about something..someone..sure you all know..any takers!

Has anyone tried one of these?
How does it compare to the X2N?

Ok I was thinking of trying to have something like this made for me
It going to be A 7-string but my string spaceing is WAY outa wack the tailpice should look smaller But you get the Idea right?

We shipped a guitar to a customer in Florida on the 16th. Because DHL is moving their hub to a new location in Kansas City, they have MANY truckloads, mostly of large packages, sitting in limbo waiting to be moved.

As I said, DO NOT USE DHL!!!!!!

It's been nearly two weeks and they can't even tell us where the package is ... they CAN tell us where its not, but ... well, you get the picture.

I've been playing a few of my guitars lately and the only one i'm flat out not happy with is the Dean Vendetta 4.0.

It's a great looking guitar but I'd like it to have a great sound as well. Any ideas on some good pickup combinations for this beauty? I have Seymour Duncan Jazz/JB combo in my EVO Special Select. I have no idea what is in my Washburn X Series but they are great pickups (stock) but i'm not sure what Washburn uses.

I'd like to be able to get a nice distortion (not really death-metal or anything) just something that sounds pretty good, as well as a fairly good clean channel as i use both frequently.

Any ideas are appreciated.

alright, so I have an older dean guiatar and i bought it from my brother. It looks just like the sarasota 12 but it is a six string guitar. Can anyone tell me what model this is?

I have an opportunity to buy a cadillac select in white, only 12 made. Can I get some opinions on the selects? Are the Czeck or MIK?

Thanks...

I have had my TC Caddy for about a week now and I am not sure I like the bridge pickup. Is the bridge pickup supposed to be a Dimarzio SD? I am asking because it is very bright with a looser low end and my other TC's with SD's in them were dark sounding, this pickup sounds like a hot Duncan Pearly Gates. I am assuming that it should be a Dimarzio SD and I probably have a bright sounding guitar but I thought I would ask here anyway. TC Caddy owners please feel free to give me some input as far as your experiences go. Thanks in advance for any replys I may receive.

me and my friends were having a competition at school as to who could find the most expensive item on Australian ebay. well one of my friends stumbled upon this item and i gotta say its the craziest item i have ever seen!

my question is...would u pay AUS$4m for it?

Hey everyone, im simon from Ireland ive been reading through some of the posts and i see some very experienced guitar techs here (hope i wont torture you too much).

Anyway, im a proud owner of a dean MLF 79 series (reissue) i must say it is a superb piece of wood, although it took 5 months gettin it it was worth every penny.

im playing round 5 years n im still a wayne at 19 (and i know it) so just a friendly hello.

Hi, I'm searching some information about this Dean Cadillac I'm considering whether to buy or not.

It comes with maple top,binding on headstock body and freatboard, dot inlays and a floyd rose.

The headstock is smaller than the ones I see they make now,but the shape is similiar.

The serial number is S94020644.

The questions are..

Which model is?

Where/when was it built?

Is it considered a good model - year and so on?

Thank You very much.

I was just wondering and wanted to gather opinions on warmoth, has anyone ever bought their pickups and have they been any good

The woods also, i was thinking about building a guitar but theres a lot of stuff to study so far i guess top grade mahogany is what im looking for, im not a total mad wailer i love my cleans too so im unsure if theres a wood thaths better.

Why do exotic woods cost more is it because they are rarer or do they just have better tonality?

Thanks, simon

just bought this...A Dillion lp copy.. 4th guitar this month.. any one ever try one of these... http://www.dillionguitars.com

it is at least as nice as some of the lower end gibson lp's... and better than all the epi lp's plus whom ever owned it was nice enough to put real Kluson tuners on it and a Gibson bridge pickup.. in it...

this is a real nice top grade guitar.. with a beautiful flame top..and i got it for a little more than what a set of klusons costs.. and it is absolutely mint plastic still on the guards..

life is grand in Mikey land...

more pics coming when i pick it up...

Man Im loveing these guys!!

This is the second time these guys have advertized a Brazilian Burst Dean Stylist. I contacted them through e-bay and asked what kind of guitar it was as it wasn't a Dean Stylist or Brazilburst.
All I got back was "Sorry", that was it, the listing is still up. They had it listed several weeks ago the same way. Now I know the do sell a lot of Deans and for the most part always have a good listing but this got me a little PO'd when I didn't get any explanation back as to what it actually is. Oh well!

LOL just a little flashback humour guys!

BTW, did you check the link for my blog? I'm sure most of you wont understand much, but please visit when you can. I have a few Dean and Dime articles in there!

I've got a line on a really nice vintage Traynor Bassman Head and a couple of cabs. The Head is rated 8 ohms output. The speaker cabs are 16 ohms. The head has 2 outputs for speakers, but I'm not sure if that means it steps down the ohms.

So, can I run an 8 ohm head into a 16 ohm speaker. And, on these older vintage heads, if I run 2 cabs, does that mean I'm stepping down the 8 ohms out to 16 ohms each side?

My brother in law sent me this joke.. actually laughed out loud in an empty house... here ya go...

A guy is driving around and he sees a sign in front of a house: "Talking Dog For Sale." He rings the bell, and the owner tells him the dog is in the backyard.

The guy goes into the backyard and sees a Labrador Retriever sitting there.

"You talk?" he asks.

"Yep," the Lab replies.

"So, what's your story?"

The Lab looks up and says, "Well, I discovered that I could talk when I was pretty young, and I wanted to help the government; so I told the CIA about my gift, and in no time at all they had me jetting from country to country, sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders, because no one figured a dog would be eavesdropping. I was one of their most valuable spies for eight years running."

"But the jetting around really tired me out, and I knew I wasn't getting any younger so I wanted to settle down. I signed up for a job at the airport to do some undercover security work, mostly wandering near suspicious characters and listening in. I uncovered some incredible dealings and was awarded a batch of medals. I got married, had a mess of puppies, and now I'm just retired."

The guy is amazed. He goes back in and asks the owner what he wants for the dog.

"Ten dollars."

The guy says, "This dog is amazing. Why on earth are you selling him so cheap?"

"Because he's a liar. He didn't do any of that sh!t."
