I have a Jackson Dinky with a Floyd in, and I loved it for some time. Doing all the Dime squeals, and flutter effects where fun. But restringing and tuning the damned thing is ridiculous and not worth it. And you can't change tunings whenever, like you can with a Fixed Bridge. So I try and stay away from Floyd Rose equipped guitars. They also don't feel as solid as Fixed Bridge guitars do, I feel like if I can dig harder with a Fixed Bridge than with a Floating Tremelo. Just my opinion though.

That's awesome, dude.

Something about lightning on a guitar is just badassed.

Although i've never liked that body shape and would never own one, I always thought he had some nice ones. I've never seen that one before, pretty cool.

Cool guitar. I don't like the whole overrated DIME thing myself (no offense to Dime personally). But Washburn actually makes some good stuff, but you do have to dig around a bit to get it. My bass is a washburn and I tried a Washburn 7 once that I liked a lot. I wouldn't buy anything of theirs that I hadn't tried out first hand though. I do that with all companies/brands though, "No try, no buy."

Yeah, ever since Dime's death, people (Mostly Dean) have been using his name for sales, they make a shit guitar and put Dime's name on it, and people will buy it. I'm getting ashamed to say that Dimebag was the one who made me pick up a guitar, because of all the Dime stuff on the market. It's a shame they are using his death as a gain like this.

I think my teacher had something similar, but neckthru.. I thought it was Washburn tho, not dean, and lit bolt finish. But it played MUCH MUCH better than any dean ML, washburn >> Dean

ML still is ugly tho imo =]

Damn you Dean for making this Dimebag thing so massively huge, I love the look of the non-Dime ML with the sunburst finish. It's sexy as shit but now I refuse to play one because I don't want people asking me about Dimebag every 5 seconds, that and every kid in the world has one now.

Nice guitar, I don't know why your trying to make it so dime like, when its missing a massive vital ingrediant allready, and thats the floyd!

You need to get the Bill and Becky XL500. That is the actual pickup made by the man himself. Bill Lawrence USA is not owned by Bill Lawrence anymore they just use his design.

I don't need a Floyd to get his tone though.

Going on the responses in this thread I'm wondering if the DimeBolt wasn't available in the states or if they jsut weren't widely available? It's in the 2001 catalogue.
