Ola Englund , I am actually curious to see who has an even lower budget solution. I know people have gotten Dime’s tone with a Line6 Über Metal pedal, or with an MXR Fullbore Metal... I have them both and I have yet to try them to dial into Dime’s tone territory. I did, however, get Dime’s tone with the MXR Dime Distortion together with an MXR 6-band EQ into the front of my Randall RH200. I also have the Dime D100 amp, I just need to find the time to tinker with all of it...! 😂🤘
@@H_A_R_M Hmm, speaking of a lower budget solution I indeed have one. WMD Acoustic Trauma: It's a 2-channel preamp pedal with noise gate and its equalizer section is based on the Furman PQ-3. ($300) ISP Technologies Stealth Ultra-Lite 180 Watt Pedalboard Power Amp: A cheaper alternative to the Seymour Duncan Powerstage. ($275) T.C. Electronic Mimiq Mini Doubler: All other doubler pedals are pricier than that little guy. ($80)
@@davejradkins6564 Nope, you're wrong. Look up the videos of Darrell playing it at his house, teaching how to play songs from RTS. After doing some more research, I believe this may have been a design change for the guitar at some point along the line (to add the extra cross).
Yes! Got my horizon apex preamp yesterday - screenshotted your settings and slightly moved em dialing it in on my new permanent tone :D thanks Ola and Frank on the other side of Aus
I've got the full size TC Mimic. I love it, it's so good and especially for the price. It was something like £60 new I got it for. And it has stereo outputs if you wanna use that, plug into two amps at once like Ola mentioned that Dimebag did. Cos of how much I liked the mimic I almost immediately got another TC pedal, their Uni-vibe clone the viscous vibe. It's amazing. And it has this weird feature that a lot of their pedals have, there's a phone app where big guitarists create their own specific settings for the pedal using the PC program for it, tones you couldn't just get by twiddling the pedals, then you click it and hold your phone up to your guitars pickup and it plays a high pitched noise and then the tone is uploaded to the pedal and you can use it straight away. I dunno if I'd ever try doing it on stage but it's possible to do it. It's crazy.
A friend of mine is a massive Pantera/Dimebag fan and has been trying to get close to his original tone, so I might show him this video to give him a hand with what pedals to look for. Aside from that, I'd say you sounded pretty damn close so great work, Ola
Really nice to see indepth how the EQ of the power stage works in comparison with the pre-amp. Thanks for that! Very informative. To me this was one of the best gear videos that you have done in a long time.
Ola it's time for Solar to make an ML shape. Based on the V and Explorer shapes you already do. I wouldn't want a carbon copy of the original but your take on it. Do that and you have a customer!
I saw a picture of Dimebags first amp, a Yamaha G100 112. It had a Celestion G12m70 speaker. I heard he used the same speakers in his 4x12 cabs later on as well. This speaker is a key ingredient in his sound.
mm idk bout that . yes + no. sure it would help to have his correct speaker but without the correct tone, the speaker alone doesnt get u close. i feel like any good rock guitar speaker should be capable of heavy tone. im sure those ones u mentioned are pretty rockin.
@@MrSimondaniel3 for sure a speaker is not the only factor but it can be a big factor. You'll never get his tone with a g12k100 (too dark sounding) and a Vintage 30 can be pretty bright. Having the right speaker (or one in the same tonal range) will get you in the ballpark much easier.
First off,,Ola you literally have down parts of Dime's playing that other ppl have no clue about,,those parts of 5 Min Alone and the transitions you have spot on! KEEP ROCKING BRO!!
Hey Ola! Can you do a White Zombie tone video? Specifically the tone off Astro-Creep. It's my birthday on the 30th.....soooo......yeah. Regards from Finland and sorry to hear about your loss. Thankfully it's only hockey!
You nailed it ! This tone is also very close to the Dying Fetus guitar tone, mostly on the "destroy the opposition" and "descend into depravity" albums, and alive as well, especially when they use that solid-state Ampeg VH140 head.
Ola. Not a big dime fan but big ola fan. Love the guitar nerd videos. I would love to see you just playing guitar for an hour or two using different guitar/amps
Ola and the Holy Grail-erer! Congrats on finally getting ahold of a dream! Thanks to Frank for the tour and making a deal with our Swedish Chugging MF'ererer!!
That's pretty much what I used back in the day because I was broke af and knew fuck all, with none of the Internet resources we have now Did have the BL L500XL, though
@Frater Simon Laney HCM65B .. a single 10 inch speaker.. metal muff top boost on.. cant imagine how close i get to D’s sound.. This is a pretty old amp, not even sure if they make em any more.. but most Laney amps have a pronounced bass frequency, im sure you’ll get close with most of em.. I’m tellin you, Laney bass amp and metal muff… :)) you can thank me later
i play a Dean ML 79 (Dimebucker) through a coolmusic insane distortion pedal with a boss noise gate on a harley benton amp (20 Watt). the things are really cheap but the sound is badass.i play it in our bedroom with really small volume but it chucks!( no im not a kid, i am in your age and play for over 25 years :) ) the amp was 60 dollars and the coolmusic pedal 35 dollars. never thought it would work. by the way Ola, i saw you play regular people correct for the first time :) congrats lol
Dude AVOID THE LIGHT by Pantera. Nobody ever talks about this song AT ALL. I remember the first time I ever listened to that song when I bought the Dracula 2000 soundtrack 19 years ago. That whole song and solo fucking floored me! Still my favorite Pantera song!
A pedal you could try out Dime related would be the Randall RG13 amp in a pedal. Its supposed to be the RG series preamp but 3 channel. The new RG amps like the 1003 and the RG80 combo with the remake of the jaguar speaker sound not too far off from the old ones to my ears and this is from an RG80ES owner and they're SUPER cheap
Awesome man - i love this, got to hear it on your vid with the guitars at Frank's on the other side of Aus and you had good footage of the sound with your setup - able to see how you have the eq sorta set. Horizon Apex Preamp now priority 1. Cheers Ola A dude in Western Australia :)
Great fucking job man, Dime was the man and you pretty much nailed the sound as far as not having all of the gear he used. I have a Krankenestien and all of the other pedals Dime used he's my favorite guitarist for sure. That cross is badass I wish I would have kept my Washburns now I just have my Deans and the custom built Dime ML's that I built myself. Love the channel.
I bought a Bill&Becky L500XL pickup and a Krank Maximus pedal. The pedal itsef doesn't have enough gain but i used it as an OD pedal in front of my amp to boost a classic overdrive (low gain) channel. Brought me close but not quite. Then i downtuned and used fat strings (11-52). Works wonder. I'm closer to damageplam than vulgar display of power but it sounds wonderful regardless.
Maybe an OD in front of the pedals would give that extra gain... Although it was a high level of gain, I thought it was missing a bit of the chunkiness (?) when playing one string muted...
Intresting! Ola, the MXR DD - 11 Dime distortion any good? Can the DD -11sound close to Dime sound? Thanks for sharing. Hope you all are doing great =)

Do more presets for Line 6 Spider V!!
Makes new Dime sound video just to show off his new southern cross.
Yeah, I'd do the same.
You think that Australian guy gave it to him? Or did playing it just put the bug in Ola's mind and he HAD to get one?
@@BrandonBames the guy have 2 of this i would say he sold one to ola
It's not the Southern Cross. It's just The Cross. The Southern Cross had a Cross inlay on the first. The Cross didn't.
Michael Czesnozki it was the other way around. He has the real one in this video.
@@davejradkins6564 Nope, you're wrong. Look up the videos of Darrell playing it at his house, teaching how to play songs from RTS. After doing some more research, I believe this may have been a design change for the guitar at some point along the line (to add the extra cross).
Thanks for the shout out Ola! Enjoy the Southern Cross mate 🍻🍻🍻
We thank you sir for the collection tour!
You sold it to him??
We need answers frank God flecking dammit! P. S cheers for the tour my dude 🤘😎🤘
Frank! Thanks for the collection tour my dude.
@@merqury5 i believe he did!!! You gwt lucky if you are ola the guitar dealer-ererer
Ola- Nonchalantly pulls out rare Southern Cross Dream Guitar and doesn’t say anything about it. Well played.
Right?
He talked about this guitar a few weeks ago
2:10 "Let me get this..." :D ...and casually picking up the most relic Dime guitar ever. Sooooo Ola!
What a beautiful guitar.
Thank you Ola for honoring Dime and keeping his legacy alive and growing!!!
Yes! Got my horizon apex preamp yesterday - screenshotted your settings and slightly moved em dialing it in on my new permanent tone :D thanks Ola and Frank on the other side of Aus
Can't believe how much difference the Mimic does!!! Without it the tone is not that close... Amazing how close you got with basically 3 stomp boxes!
I've got the full size TC Mimic. I love it, it's so good and especially for the price. It was something like £60 new I got it for. And it has stereo outputs if you wanna use that, plug into two amps at once like Ola mentioned that Dimebag did.

To me this was one of the best gear videos that you have done in a long time.
spot on dimebag tone. good job brOLA!
Early sepultura tone would be cool. Love the Schizophrenia sound.
Dude! Mee too. And drums on that record. That toms reverbed like from church sound
Yeaaaaah!!!!!!!!!
Do you love Neurosis?
That's sounding great, but hearing again those riffs... the guy was a genius. One of the best of all time.
Thx mate
Ola it's time for Solar to make an ML shape. Based on the V and Explorer shapes you already do. I wouldn't want a carbon copy of the original but your take on it. Do that and you have a customer!
I’d buy one, for sure...
Upvote this comment please
@@jean-tintinlablanquetteduf7954 what is this, Reddit? (Jk m8, there should definitely be an ML Solar)
@@hippyhobo6285 hell yeah
Id buy that for a dollar! Seriously though. Im already considering a solar. An ml solar and I'm sold tomorrow!
If Dimebag was alive today with all the brutal sounding amps out there I wonder what his tone would have evolved into.
I saw a picture of Dimebags first amp, a Yamaha G100 112. It had a Celestion G12m70 speaker. I heard he used the same speakers in his 4x12 cabs later on as well. This speaker is a key ingredient in his sound.

That sounds fricking amazing for what you used . And g'day from Australia mate.
Congrats on finding a southern cross Washburn Dime guitar! You must be really stoked.
I made it 6 minutes in before I was like - wait a minute... When did Ola get the Southern Cross he's been chasing
Andrew Johnson looks like he bought it when he was here in Australia
@@bencousins9369 That would have been my guess as well
Ola: "What's up everyone and welcome to a new.."
Me: LEVELLLLLLL!
Great tone. Solid 6/10.
6/Dime
Josh Besson 6/666 isnt a lot
@@koffieverslaafde627 I was just making a math pun that's also relevant to the video
Josh Besson a joke on a joke on a joke i assume
Solid 6/10 comment
Well that was interesting. Great video as always Ola.
Did you borrow that Southern Cross?
For a few thousand dollars.
Southern Cross, yaaaaaaaaay! Well played, Ola. Cheers, and congratulations on your new baby!!!
Zelda cup : the most important part of Dime's tone
Cursed Creep obviously it adds more old men who give you swords to the tone
I'm surprised you haven't done a video on the MXR DD11 Dime Distortion Pedal.
It's not very good. Sounds pretty mushy and artificial. I ended up selling mine and just buying a decent randall
@@TomVernonUAP its truly the pinnacle of heavy metal guitar tones.
@@dirtcobain7777 hahaha it sure is. Super subtle as well you can really tweak it. Dime would have been pissed his name was on it
@@TomVernonUAP It's a nice toy, or starting pedal for a beginner. But id rather get a beginner a metalzone even still 😂
Be honest Ola did you buy all the dime guitars that Australian guy had?
That guy was a hoarder, no way he'd let Ola have them all lol
This his collection was worth in the millions?
He got 4 ;)
The main riff from ‘where you come from’ would be awesome to hear and see. Please? 👍👍
I'd love to see how to go about recreating some of his clean/lower gain tones, such as Cemetery Gate, 10\s , and Floods.
Haha, legit smiled when you pulled out the cross. Hope it's yours.
First off,,Ola you literally have down parts of Dime's playing that other ppl have no clue about,,those parts of 5 Min Alone and the transitions you have spot on! KEEP ROCKING BRO!!
Oh yeah I need a guitar. Grabs his dream guitar.
What the hell man?!!!??
Happy to see you grabbed one!! Is it from frank the tank?
Challenge: dimebag tone for the price of a literal dimebag
Well, for 10 bucks you could probably buy a cheap MP3 player and Bootleg Pantera albums off of UA-cam
@@austinhawkins5426 then play it thru your amp and fake play
It would still be cool to see you test out the MXR Dime Distortion. It’s actually a really great pedal when used as a preamp.
"I'm just happy to find a solution that does not incorporate a shit tonne of expensive gear"
*holds a southern cross*
coffee with grady champion and rig build of dimes rig.
Yes!!! I second this. Bring out The Grand Dragon!!
Hey Ola! Can you do a White Zombie tone video? Specifically the tone off Astro-Creep. It's my birthday on the 30th.....soooo......yeah. Regards from Finland and sorry to hear about your loss. Thankfully it's only hockey!
Yesss, Regular People!!! My favorite Pantera riff ever!
Lol! Love that clip with the pedals falling off the amp! I love you Ola! You always make me smile!
Excellent tone Ola, you nailed Dime's sound
Sounds absolutely brutal!!! 🔥🔥🤘🏻💪🏻
the dimebucker is definitely helping. that thing is like permanent dime EQ
That southern Cross is epic. Love your videos man. Dime was the entire reason I started playing.
Congrats on the southern cross Ola 👏👌
Sickest tone i ever heard was fear factory live 2016. Dinos tone was unreal
Ola, I feel you nailed the tone once again. That cross looks and sounds brilliant 👌.
can’t thank you enough for this video, literal gold for us
A vulgar display of demontization with them tasty riffs.
With each of these videos you do, it sounds better and better!
Why is the Dime tone so cool ? Everytime This love or Sandblast , New level comes on i cant beiliev how Heavy they still sound
Just ordered the Mimiq to complete my DimeBag pedalboard. 🤘
Luv the Washy Southern Cross. Great idea of tone replication... For those of us who can't get a Randall
Awesome video as always Ola!! Very nice scooped mid sound, I wish I was in that room to hear it! Thanks for the video.
The Dimebag tone on BiasFX2 is pretty spot on
Nice demo Ola, I'm always looking for pedals and gadgets that bring me closer to dimebag's tone!.🤘🤘
Supercool Dimebag sound this is.
WAIT. Is that THE Southern Cross from your friend in Australia???
I was thinkin the same thing....I was like "why is he not saying anything about the Southern Cross"
Yes it is :)
He bought a Dimbolt a while back, saying how he missed the one he sold many years ago, but this Southern Cross came outta nowhere
Autoriff yep i saw his awesome dimebolt NGD post but this is like you said completely outta nowhere. Ola the sneaky bastard! Hahahahaha
@Shane Dunn DAAAAAMN. Ola the player! Fortunate bastard got one of his dream guitars. That is awesome.
I love it. It's got a awesome low end and the razor highs.
You nailed it !
This tone is also very close to the Dying Fetus guitar tone, mostly on the "destroy the opposition" and "descend into depravity" albums, and alive as well, especially when they use that solid-state Ampeg VH140 head.
You got the Southern Cross!!!! Congrats brother!
That's just like the far beyond driven sound. Great stuff!
Ola. Not a big dime fan but big ola fan. Love the guitar nerd videos. I would love to see you just playing guitar for an hour or two using different guitar/amps
Nicely done, Mr. Guetta!
I have the PowerStage too, amazing piece of amp. Perfect for my pedals and Helix.
You got it! Nice! Hope shipping wasn't a fortune dude.
Dude, that sounds freakin bad ass!.... Holy wow!.... You got dines tone nailed down man!
Dude that little riff @ 5:31 was wicked. I like that!
Its dimes riff in regular people off of vulgar display of power
Damn those are some sick fucking tones!!
Ola and the Holy Grail-erer!
Congrats on finally getting ahold of a dream! Thanks to Frank for the tour and making a deal with our Swedish Chugging MF'ererer!!
That guitar is so KILLER. R.I.P DIME
Great sound so far, what a masterpiece of audio bliss !!!
Very practical small bedroom setup
That sounds KILLER!
Frank is the man
The Warhead flashback at 0:17 was just great - comedy at its best!
my dimebag rig is a Laney bass amp and an EHX Metal Muff.. not thru the fx return but rather in front of the amp.. believe me I get pretty close…..
That's pretty much what I used back in the day because I was broke af and knew fuck all, with none of the Internet resources we have now
Did have the BL L500XL, though
Post a vid of it!

Sick tone ! Very close to dimes! Great vid
Dude! That sounded so so so freaking close to Dimebag!
Would love to see a video on the solo to “The Sleep”. My favorite Dimebag solo, possibly my favorite solo from any guitar player. It’s epic... 👍🏽
You got your dream guitar. Fuck yeah man. Congratz
Awesome man - i love this, got to hear it on your vid with the guitars at Frank's on the other side of Aus and you had good footage of the sound with your setup - able to see how you have the eq sorta set.

Tone on a budget for sure, sounds fucking awesome!
Not really on budget but it’s less than 600 at least
Perfect! Man! Did you just get that Southern Cross? Lucky!
Does sound awesome - apex + doubler is the plan now! :p
Same!
Fukkk thats so perfect deff the closet tone of dime ive seen ina while even wen u play wit the nobs there basically spot on
I bought a Bill&Becky L500XL pickup and a Krank Maximus pedal. The pedal itsef doesn't have enough gain but i used it as an OD pedal in front of my amp to boost a classic overdrive (low gain) channel. Brought me close but not quite. Then i downtuned and used fat strings (11-52). Works wonder. I'm closer to damageplam than vulgar display of power but it sounds wonderful regardless.
Maybe an OD in front of the pedals would give that extra gain... Although it was a high level of gain, I thought it was missing a bit of the chunkiness (?) when playing one string muted...
Once again GREAT VIDEO BRUTHA!!!
OMG that sounds killer!!!!
Intresting! Ola, the MXR DD - 11 Dime distortion any good? Can the DD -11sound close to Dime sound? Thanks for sharing. Hope you all are doing great =)
I managed to get close to Dimebag's tone using the Chug pedal, MXR 6 band and Sonic Stomp Maximizer and Ola's IR DIMED.
Learned a ton from this. Thanks you
