    Congrats my man! I am literally building a guitar to these exact specs from scratch with all top of the line components because I can’t justify buying a D3 right now. I’ll post a vid when the guitar is complete for all the dime nerds. I’m using left over wood in my shop for the guitar so it’s African Sapele body with neck through 5 piece walnut/maple, FU-tone floyd & nut, rosewood fretboard that I just finished pressing in the frets. Exact shape and V neck carve of the D3!

      @EricMorettin  11 днів тому

      @@jaydoode15 I saw them twice and they sounded great both times. Keep in mind Dime and Zakk are two different players at the end of the day. Also, when you're a professional musician, gear is a tool to help you do your job better in some way. So if Zakk wasn't 100% playing Dime's rig (or using Dime's tools for the job), then he would have to use tools/gear that he feels at home with to do the best job he can do.

    • @jaydoode15
      @jaydoode15 11 днів тому

      @EricMorettin I agree but if you're playing as Pantera you might as well try and get as close as possible to Pantera's sound. I'm sure Zak has no problem ripping it on a dimebolt compared to what he plays now. Charlie Benante also doesn't sound close to Vinnie, opting to stick with thick and darker sounding Paiste cymbals instead of the super bright AAX's that Vinnie was known for rocking, snare didn't sound close either, lacked that echo-ey reverb that Vinnie was known for during the really heavy live bits. Both Dime and Vinnie's choice of gear were integral to their sound. Mind you, I saw Pantera in a shitty sounding venue so it wasn't their fault the sound sucked.

I.e. most are bright white but occasionally you see them yellowish (for example pustulus from gwars dean from hell, 2nd gen import). I asked pustulus and he said he had no idea why his was more yellow. Any information you have and especially how to make my bolts yellow is appreciated.
