Recommend me a Dimebag Dean

[AdAstra2025]

He's trying to go for a totally wheels-off look, though. Washburn used to have one with a weird ass alien skull with the pink dime goatee. It was pretty ridiculous...Damn, for a guy who doesn't own a single Pantera album, I kjnow way too much about Dime's sig guitars

We had one of these in the store I used to work at. Truly terrible guitar. Felt terrible in the hands, super light, the neck felt chalky. My boss got so fed up with all the employees hating on it, he sent it back to dean

It'd be the perfect canvas in which to make a mockery of dean

all the washburn dime's i've tried i liked allot more than the dean dime's i tried

 

[soliloquy]

that guitar actually has one of the GREATEST guitar necks i've ever played!
super amazing guitar actually


but if you want that body shape, then i'd recommend one of these:
$499

~$400-500ish

But if you are still keen on a Dean ML shape I'd recomend this Dean Guitars - ML ArchTop Series

That would be my suggestion too, but it's far from a 'project' or 'beater' guitar. Craig from Forbidden uses one of these and they look pretty rad!

I've played a couple of Deans, and there's one of them that really sticked to me.
Its the Dean ML Knight. I'm not a big fan of the shapes and stuff, but this one is really eye candy. Dark, smooth aged black satin finish and EMG mics. The neck feels smooth and it sounds great. The price aint bad too.
To be honest, I liked it better than the flamed Razorback with passives, which was twise the price of the ML Knight. Check it out.. But its got a trem thought.. =p

I'd recommend a Washburn Dime 333 if you can find one in good condition. I just sold mine recently(neck to thin and the fins kept bashing off everything) but its an awesome guitar.
Lightening fast neck and the stock pickups suited the guitar perfectly. Bridge pickup was better for soloing than my BK Nailbomb.

Dude, those are way to tasteful to have any kind of association with Dimebag.

Dude, those are way to tasteful to have any kind of association with Dimebag.

And this thread.

Though I am relieved that there are tasteful dime guitars, this thread is not about them. It's about the 'bad' ones.
