If you play guitar and love Pantera, it's hard to not "go crazy" with the divebombs.
Just ask Syn
I don't have a whammy. It's painful to not be able to go crazy with it.
yep...broke the trem block on my vester 3 days after buying it on the trem drop and rip up on 5 minutes alone.😂
Even if you play other stuff love the dive bombs isn’t the pushing backwards of the tremolo called something different…I like the sound of picking every nite up and down…hammer ons sounds ok but slopppy
They should be renamed to DIMEbombs.
*Here's to anyone who wants to learn how to play like Dime:*
Get his techniques down, but it doesn't have to be perfect, then just have fun and play from your gut. Just do what feels right. Have fucking fun! Honestly, THIS is how Dime wanted other guitarists to be. Don't worry about messing up or just hitting one note wrong, just keep going and have fun. It really does NOT get much more simple than that.
RIP to the legend...
True statement
Nobody can learn to play a fkn guitar like Dime lol.
Exactly this, he mentioned when he would go on stage he was just jamming. It seemed like it was always about having a good time for him.
I don't think Dime could have said it any better himself.
All of dime’s riffs were legendary because he wrote most on the shitter, which all of you know is in close proximity to the shower, which is where all the greatest ideas come from. If he could have wrote tunes in the shower, he would have made tunes only audible to the gods themselves... RIP DIME & VINCE!
Writes on the toilet cause his riffs are the shit
I agree. Angus Young also came with Highway to hell title while sitting on toilet. x)))

Thanks saved us some talking.
Dimebag is truly one of the greats. But not just for his chops, but the heart that drove it all. That guy lived life like no other. I have never heard of anyone say that he treated them bad, said anything bad or anything negative. It was always "what's your name? Well let's do a shot William Smith and raise some hell!" That was his MO. Total stranger? Not in 2 minutes. No, in two minutes we're going to be best buddies.
Zakk said it perfect he is Eddie, Randy, Ace (due to his love of Kiss not in reach of that ballpark Zakk kinda made clear) and Santa mixed in a blender!
Exactly...
@@mikethompson4135 Yosimite Sam.. lol
Evangelicals hated him lol
some reason i almost get to tears when i do dime stuff. i know how much he loved guitar and i luv it soo much too and i just think what a soul he was and what music he cudda put out. uggh man. RIP dime
Same bro
I feel like Dime has always sort of been a slightly underrated guitarist. Like people like him, but he's always like second or third behind other "shredders". More people need to see/hear this dude's insane talent! He needs to be recognized more...
genius guitarist
the way he treated details was so impressive
Disagree!! All my friends who PLAY hold DIMEBAG in HIGH REGARD!! I HOLD HIM IN THE RANDY RHOADS, E.V.H. LEAGUE!! INCREDIBLE PLAYER!! SO ORIGINAL AS A PLAYER AND A PERSON! ONE OF THE GREATEST PLAYERS EVER!!
@@richardsnyder9018 yeah, and you're one of those people who "liked dimebag" 🤦♂️ He means more people
Not true. He is perfectly loved and respected specially in the Metal community. There are other guitarists far more underrated than him. Btw he’s my 2nd biggest influence so I love him
Hey, nothing personal but, who gives a fuck what "they" think? And no offense to our host here, a lot of people can play Dime's tunes and even sound almost like him BUT, and this is a big damn BUT, they didn't dream it and they didn't write. So, walk on home...
Most people struggle playing this sober and Dime played this off his ass lol, love the video man, subbed!
Dime has a video where he explains how he does his harmonic dives without picking. He flicks the string as he dives the bar and then hits the harmonic on the way back up.
43 year old here. Really appreciate the video I consider myself a potential student. I started playing a few years ago, just a self taught/utube videos guy. I was always a jock but as I get older it’s really great to learn something I can approach with the same intensity that I approached athletics with. It’s something you can do when you’re 80 and it wouldn’t be possible without people like you.
I've only watched the first 5 minutes and this has already helped me. I'd consider myself a beginner guitarist that's stuck in a rut. This video has so many great exercises that I will continue to come back for. I only stopped after 5 minutes because I tried the "pick to hammer on combos" technique/exercise and my pinky is killing me.
Chad Harrington Awesome. Yeah there's a lot to digest here depending on your level. I'm still learning his stuff and I'm like 25 years in. Haha
I just saw I video where Dime explains how he usually does the squeal. Mute all but the G string with your left hand, flick the G string with a finger on the left hand, divebomb the whammy, grab a harmonic, and then lift it up. He did it so fast you don't even hear the divebomb. However, it's important to make it sound exactly like Dime. Don't mean to be rude, just repeating what Dime said himself.
All I keep thinking is how funny it would be to have Dime there with you to comment in his own Texas slang on what you're doing, since he never really thought about the theory or musical notation involved in his styling. Well done!
I'm practicing Dimebag licks and riffs and I just learned that it's pretty hard to do those super fast legato stuff he did. I always thought legato was somewhat cheating but it's so much harder than I thought to do at that speed.
First one I've seen who got the upstrokes right. Everything about this video is great. Thanks man, you rule
For dime squeals you do a random pull off so you have an open G string with your left hand , dip the bar , catch the harmonic on the way up, continue pulling up on the bar for the squeals. It's a fast motion. There's a video of dime explaining it. Just doing a natural harmonic isn't correct.
metallaholic yeah I thought the same! Great video BTW! Thanks
I thought same, guy is a legend though still, close enough really I guess.
👌
I thought the same as well - I haven't seen any videos of dime doing a simple harmonic grab but always his squeal (hammer on G third fret and catch the harmonic on the 5th fret is a signature move)
Add wah pedal also
Dimebag was such a unique player, his technique was beyond crazy!! Perhaps you should also do a video on the techniques of Glenn Tipton and KK Downing of Judas Priest
Besides doing a video on Glenn & KK I would love to see a video about Gary Moore's techniques too. Every artist technique video I have watched on this channel has been great and helpful.
I remember Dime walking down the row of fans waiting to get in to see Pantera as the opening act for Skid Row in Fort Wayne, Indiana. He was saying hi to everyone and asked, “Are you guys gonna rock us tonight?!”
They definitely blew away Skid Row!
Thanks for the lesson, Mike…
They played in my hometown nice!
Thanks!! Dimebag truly one of the greatest
*the greatest
Greatest metal guitarist ever
@@blade4174 bullshit!
@@hanzo2238 the greatest
Pentatonic + flat 5 = blues scale
ContortionistIX The Devil's Interval
Holy god....I never saw this. I appreciate you!
The Blue note lol
Add the 3rd note a half step from the scale on the g string and it’s the bb King box
@@journeysintotheunknownoffi3679 tritones are great
Hands down my favorite tutorial!! Very well done.. Thanks for explaining everything in such detail especially the picking!!
This is such a smooth video. Good on you! Way to explain to the intermediates.
Just found this channel for the first time. I like the teaching style. I played for years then didn't for years and I'm trying to get back to it now. Thanks for making the vids!
Enjoyed seeing the mind blowing technique broken down. Dimebag was amazing. Sticking this one aside for 2-3 years down the road.
did u start doing it 2-3 yrs later?
If you wanted to know you were playing cemetery gates main riff in the wrong position. The opening chugs are right but dime moves up the neck and uses the A and E strings 7th fret position to play that riff, of course it doesn't matter much but if you like doing that one off massive bend he puts in then it easier to do in that position.
Dime plays the chorus, the part with the pinch harmonics and whatnot, in the 5th position. Not sure if that's what you meant or not.
Flat five, or the augmented fourth, or the tritone. The devil’s interval. 😈
I'm a huge Dime fan,and glad that you demonstrate all these beautiful techniques clearly..great job,man🤘🏿👍
Thank you for sharing this video. I really like how you explaine everything, in proper and technical terms. This will take some time to nail these techniques. Always glad when someone is inspired by the master of metal guitar, Dimebag Darrell Abbott! Peace and RESPECT 👊
goddamn thanks alot dude , softly spoken and clear , you take ur time describing and tutoring but not too slow for the more advanced players but really good for begginers , you're a great teacher never felt better subscribing to a channel thanks alot keep up the great work !!! going to learn everything on ur channel
You drop some good knowledge. I seen you pop up a few times on my recommended videos. I like learning about the techniques different players use. Gonna give you that sub.
And he did this drunk...😳
Playing drunk prevents you from overthinking things
actually during recording, he was pretty meticulous. I remember reading interview from Terry Date who produced 3 Pantera records saying that Dime was so neurotic about recording process that he didn't give up until he can play exactly the same in all of 3 or 4 takes (for multi tracking rhythm part). Terry said he didnt recommend actually playing exactly the same all the time just to create this thickness when overlaid.
John Jordan he did it WASTED
Then you guys wouldaa been hella impressed by my old lead guitarist.
It’s not hard IF you practice drunk. That goes for any substance. Practice under the influence and you’ll be fine.
But I recommend staying sober.
You should look into how he actually did his dive harmonics. He never picked them. It’s a very cool and easy technique
Really good lesson of Dimebag’s bag of tricks. One of the best Dimebag lessons I’ve seen so far.
Dude you are the man, keep it up!
The-Art-Of-Guitar You are a very good teacher. You have a knack for this that supersedes anyone else that I have seen trying to teach guitar on UA-cam.
I’ll second that emotion 🎶
Very professional tutorial. Thank you... & RIP Dimebag.
Uploaded on my birthday, and Dimebag is my favorite guitarist
I have that very guitar - Dean Dimebonics! It's built like a tank, plays beautifully and the pickups are incredible!
My love for dime and your vids make playing guitar a great time thank you keep them coming !
Amazing Mike!!! Thanks for share this techniques. By the way, awesome DIME guitar!
Great lesson. Seems like you're not a guy that spent a lot of time imitating Dime so you bring a fresh perspective into his technique. Very cool. Thanks for taking the time to do something cool.
Excellent dude
Got some inspiration back
these are great, you should definitely do more!!!!!
I'm diggin your videos man. I just picked guitar playing back up after about a 10 year break... been struggling but these videos are helping me get back in the swing. Keep em coming! Don't know if you've done one or not but a Mark Tremonti techniques video could be fun
Great video overall, I just missed one of his coolest, unique technique, what he called playing it Texas style (aka the right way): instead of picking a note, you pick a half or full note below and bend up to it (think Revolution is my name intro). This video slightly touched on this around 26:20, but there's more to it
The Hick bend
This is a really cool vid. It's funny to see how many different techniques of Dime's I worked into my own playing without even realizing it. Thanks for sharing!
Exactly...I just got so into him, that I subconsciously started using his techniques. And i just loved how they sounded
The EVH, RR, Ace, and Dimebag videos are really good. Doing one on Marty Friedman's solo techniques and such would be amazing.
Cool video brother! I think Dime would have been proud of this. I'll be referencing this more in the future for obvious reasons. Thank you! Getcha pull!
Such a great video THANK YOU
Loved that lesson and love Dime so much love your method of teaching easy to grasp without confusing books lol
This is one of the best videos on UA-cam, ever! Thank you so much for making this.
This is great. Thank you!
What a killer lesson, thank you bro!
Much love for showing ppl this
what a fantastic lesson!
You sounded great playing these. Sounding killer dude
Bro your really good at teaching playing and talking I'm impressed. That's a sick guitar and sound set up you got going on to.
Great video🤘🔥
Thanks,this is very helpful!
Really like your way of instructing and your explanations are easy to follow also. I like the fact that, while studying for this, my fave Metal git-fiddle-ist has you intrigued and a bit captivated! That's good shit! You are a pretty sikk axe-slinger yourself, by the way. Keep up the killer work!
There are lots of picking techniques like his upward strokes that are really necessary for a particular song to work. Dime's a genius the greatest heavy metal guitarist of all time.
I seen that in a 2007 or 2008 revolver mag when I was like 13 and fantasized about that exact guitar then and haven't thought about it for years lol seeing this crammed me into a time machine and blasted me back💯
One of my best guitarist ..and loved to see his techniques too
Great video, man!!! Love it!!
Great video! Thanks! In one video I saw someone asked Dime how he does the whammy bar stuff and he was showing the guy and the guy was asking for more details and Dime just said "man you just gotta go for it." and I dunno I always remember that when I'm trying to learn something new and its true. Sometimes you just gotta go for it, and sometimes you wont get it and sometimes you will.
Awesome videos, thanks man! Rock on!
Great lesson, thank you.
Hey man, I like that U respect Dimebag & his God-given talent 2 make a vid. like this. Keep rockin!
R.I.P. Vinnie&Dime🖤🥀🕯️
I love that guitar! Great lesson also as usual.
So glad I found this video!!!!!!
Definitely going to watch this one a thousand times
Great lesson man, thanks.
This is a great video for everyone my guy,👍
dude, as a huge Pantera fan, thank you so much for doing a Dimebag video man \m/ if this is the appropriate place for song requests, could you do 5 mins alone ?
Great video man!
may be a little late but this actually helped understand better how to use fingers when hammering on, and also how to pick better when playing those solos, Your a great teacher even if you don't think so.
FAB tutorial.
I learnt more in 36:21 minutes than I have done in 45 years playing.
Cheers maan! ✌😎
Aewsome job, mate!
Truly helpful. Thanks
damn, killer lesson man. subscribed
21:38 : That look! Haha I think most players would agree that is the face you make when you first start diving into the depths of Dime! Awesome video man!

I found you from your ace Frehley video. Great stuff
Great job with this video
Fun stuff. Ever do fretted cords with picked harmonics while using palm mutes during an arpeggio? This is awesome watching all these techniques I've been doing since the 80's. You explain it so well.
Wow great video, so cool and so complete
Stopped the vid to come down here and say this. Thank you and well done.
The Phrygian scale makes everything sound like spanish/flamenco, that's why it's so awesome. BTW you must know EVH was one of his big inspirations. Listen to oldskool Eddie and you can practically play all of Dimebags stuff.
Excellent vid. I thank you.
im very impressed with your channel and will be interrogating your website as i want to start learning guitar
Dime dives the bar, flicks the open string with his left hand, as it's dipped and when he pulls up the bar, taps the harmonic on the string he's making scream so it has a further motion to grow and longer the squeal. Everything else was bloody brilliant!
Amazing video!
I've always thought Dimebags sound was particularly cool sounding but I never really have done a deep dive into what he does. Pantera was just one of those bands that i liked the sound of but never really listened to them.
This video was well done.
Thanks
Thank you so much.
Dime bag will always be in our hearts a mutual friend and I were very affected when he was assassinated wheel every dime bag thank you Jesse for the introduction to key grip friends 4ever
Thank you Glenn 👍🏻
Great video man
This is my Favorite lesson video on youtube, Ill be getting stuck into these techniques and re watching this many times. You obviously put alot of time and effort into researching and putting these together whether you had help or not and that is very inspiring making me want to do the same. but ill just take the easy way and let you do the hard work for me ;) you have earned another life long subscriber/student \M/ \M/
Awesome man. Thanks. Yeah this was a tough one but we'll worth it. :)
Can you do the guitar techniques of Kerry King and Trey Azagthoth?
There are some unique things that they do that are quite interesting.
Thanks for the video!
Im a drummer and enjoyed watching this. Would love to learn guitar someday , looks so fun.
