In 2000 I met Dimebag after a gig in Manchester and asked him specifically about this. He was really kind and told me how to get the harmonic etc. Wish he’d mentioned the wah, might’ve saved me 20 years of grief 😂
LMAO a secret is a secret and who wants to be easily copied

Dime gets the question and gives the squeal lesson at 26m25s
the JP way is over rated, difficult to set up and expensive..try Dime's crybaby from hell dude, Dime told me he was working on this since the mid 80s
I was at that gig!!!! Didn't meet Dime tho 😢
He didnt need the wah, bro. He was straight up randall and pure awesomeness.
This just blew my mind. Can't wait to try
Good to see that the JP Wah can do more than keep a monitor from falling
Lmao this is great i been doin it without the wah getting very close to what i just witnessed but now oooo its amazing
I lost it at the “HA” after “Since the wah is basically cocking”
I can do the squeals but the wah pedal trick is brilliant 👍
Duuuude, what brand is that Dime guitar??? I WANT ONE!!!!!!!
killer
So now I need a wah
yes good
\m/
🤘
New series: Ola explaining shit.
:-D
YES!!!!!!!!
Ola cocking shit, yea
I'm waiting for
Ola taking shit
@@DominicAirola doesn't he take enough of our shit? haha
This absolutely needs to be a thing!
I learnt how to do the Dime Squeals from a Guitar World interview with Dime way back in the day. I remember him talking about how he often just had the wah on for leads - not to wah with, but to have it sit in a specific range and really focus the tone. Exactly the way you've used it here.
Me too. Dime's my favorite guitarist that I've learned from and coming from the same state. 🤘🏾
I read that article in middle school,cool...
Apperantly were old as fuck now.
Is that the Guitar World with Dime and his Trendkill camo guitar? Riffer madness I think. Awesome shit!
Yeah dimes stoner logic made it very easy for me to understand
Dime's old Riffer Madness articles in Guitar World! I learned Drop D tuning from one of those articles.
I wonder if a fixed wah pedal (Fulltone WahFull or CryBaby Qzone) would work better for something like this? kick it on for leads, kick it off when done. The controls on a fixed wah pedal will allow you to dial in the perfect tone to hit those high notes rather than having to use you foot to rock back n fourth...
Tell this to Kirk... 😏
Or just an EQ pedal in general would work, just boost the hi mids and scoop the rest
If you listen closely though, especially on the recording, the wah sweep is very noticeable, and very much a part of what makes those harmonics scream. I feel using an EQ pedal wouldn't give you the same deep scoop up into those higher registers you hear. The greatness of that lick is definitely the sum of all it's parts. An EQ pedal may 'work' better, but would it sound better?
@@superkillrobot did you just try to correct ola on his own channel? Lol
On my boss ms3 I have a wah toe down setting assigned to a foot switch so if I want that extra high end to do the squeals I just press it instead of kicking on the wah and risk not turning it off haha
It’s also impossible to do Dime squeals without a proper Squeal face.
While cock-ing the wah...lol
That's the real secret. 😆

@@n7warlock22 HAH! :D
It’s absolutely necessary lol
Holy Shit, I am so inspired to make videos again! Thank you Ola!
Came to the comments hoping I'd see this! Was not disappointed.
great job dude
You should make more videos, man!!!!
Today will be the day that there are more people simultaneously doing the dime squeal than any other day in history 🥲🤘🏽🤘🏽everyone should film it and get it edited all together 💀
I'm guessing its the wah pedal. Figured this out a while ago and it blew my mind
It would help with the freqs
in 1994
I thought it was a whammy pedal
@@floridianthrasher5426 the wah pedal effects the tone but the whammy peda effects the pitch. I don’t know why it works exactly but if you listen to your guitar with the wah pedal on it sounds a little extra distorted kind of. I think it’s that little extra that lets those high harmonics ring out
@@connorcostello7404 yeah
Just started listening to pantera and as a guitar player I really admire your effort in keeping dime’s legacy alive
I think the key here is actually feedback into the pickups and strings, like a sustainer pickup does. You can't do this when playing/recording silently in headphones. It has to be acoustically loud in the room with the pickups and strings resonating with the feedback note from the high gain amp.
Also muting. All other strings except the G need to be totally dead with left hand muting
@@creamwobbly pickuppery?
@@RedSheap
yep, exactly as Dime says

before i watched it im going to guess its a wah pedal? :D
Dimebag shows how to squeal and what he uses to get those long notes. I learned this in 2005 straight from the man himself. The video is probably still online. It was for young guitar or guitar magazine. It originally was a DVD in a magazine I think or they released it after he died. Also an overdrive pedal helps with the wah wah pedal. Awesome guitar collection and playing!
Must've been 04
That cocked ("HA!") wah works a bit like a compressor that way too, as those specific frequencies hit the amp that much harder.
Michael Schenker uses it the same way to get some more sustain (but without the squeals 😀)
Dime actually made a lesson video on how he does the squeals.
He didn't mention the wah pedal lol
Damn that dude made the video private.
I love your new style of content!! Back to the roots, more guitar related, less drama. Thanks Ola!!!!!
VERY cool. Going to grab my Morley!
I've had a Morley Wha since the 80's that I won't part with. Makes a great overdrive and tone control besides the obvious Wha function, but I'm pretty sure the real trick is opening your mouth just right when you pull the note up.
Of course this would come up as we're getting ready to go pay our respects to Dime and Vinnie :D
Well, on 3 vulgar videos from hell, you can see Grady turning up the volume of some equipment at maximum, when Dime make your squeals. Once the squeal are done, Grady turn down again. (Maybe it's a Delay or boost, I don't know) the point is, there's a lot of secrets behind the Dime tone and Squeals, but using the Wah pedal it's a really good tip. Thanks Ola ! Cheers and listen to my band, Faces of Death, Brazilian Thrash Metal
i think it was a delay
caraio cuzão altas somzera!
@@p3dron3tto opaaaaaaaa, kraiiii
Yes, Dime knew exactly what he wanted and how to get to it. I was always wondering, as a kid, why was he so aggressive with his volume knob on the guitar when he could of used a gate. Yeah, I know NOW 😁
It was that rackmount flanger doubler
My Wah-Wah pedal that I ordered literally just arrived in the door and of course I’m gonna annoy the missus trying this out!
Very interesting trick! I may or may not have done this before yeeeeeaars ago without thinking about it, but it does make perfect sense now!
Just going to point out something else to anyone who doesn't know, he also didn't have very low action either, so to anyone who thinks they need crazy low action to be able to play Pantera easier...well, this is even more testament to how great he was haha. The high action will help keep the note too as it won't "fret out" as early when the action lowers even more from pushing the bridge back👍
Thanks for that Ola, and Music Sucks!
Nice tip and nice seeing you here man!
@@Cthulhu_Awaken ha No worries man, you too! /,,/
Dime probably didn't mention pedals because he wanted young players to go out and find their own tone and stuff in my opinion
His neighbors must think he’s being abducted by aliens.
He used the wah for some and he used the whammy pedal as well for those really high squeals.
Jesus loves y’all
My dad in the next room: W T H
No one does it like Dime but same goes to Alexi Laiho as well. So rare to hear anyone be iconic with these simple techniques.
Dirty sock is also a required item to hit those 1st or 0 fret squeals xD
It's like Dime has been resurrected. I hear it in that squeal.
im off to make squeals and turn my jam room into slaughter house screams....
Most importantly though....
WHAT PARAMETERS is the pedal set at?
Thank you good Sir! Now I'm gonna play my neighbours some Pantera!
Yesss finally picked up a Floyd rose gat to do some squeals, oop time to buy a wah pedal
Small suggestion, if I may: try to find the type with adjustable upper range (many classic Wah pedals have a bit too narrow freq. range for those ultra-high squeals).
I seriously love how much Ola just shouts out smaller channels. Another reason why we love you brOla
The wah, particularly that one, is also adding a huge boost to the front end of the amp or whatever it is you are using for your distorted sound.
I think just about all the leads on CFH were laid down with the wah in a fixed position. I had read that a long time ago in an interview with Terry Date or Dime, can't remember. They just moved the wah until it sounded the hottest. Another great example of that tone is John Sykes' leads on the 1987 Whitesnake album.
Cheers for sharing the WeeeeOoooouu
That'll do pig That'll do. Squeeeeeeellllll 🐷🐷🐷
FunFact: The songs Dime use the Wammy pedal such as Becoming and Suicide Note Pt II on live performance, was actually made for one of his guitar techniques on backstage. So Dime could perform freely around the stage without get stuck on the pedals.
Now I believe the same trick was made when he did those squeals on Cemetary Gates that's why after all these years most of the people couldn't find out the "secret" behind that! 😃
Active pickups and high gain is also very important,no one ever mentions that…..great video,that wah techniques pretty interesting I might try it !🤘
My favorite Dime squeal is the beginning of "Light Comes Out of Black". Sounded like his guitar was screaming for its life.
great clip... I love that Dimebag was so frequency-astute to target and narrow the guitar's output with a simple wah.
Another example of how the most elegant answer is METAL !!!
He had a sixth sense about some things. In 1995, when Pantera were prepping for the Trendkill sessions, they had a bad result from testing a tape machine out to record. There was a horrendous low-end hum buzz all over the test recording, and Dime was the one that walked in and said "hey, I wonder if it's that 50,000 watt power line running under the studio", or something to that effect.
I've seen Alexi Laiho do that with his KH wah too
In the damageplan video in japan that dimebag speaks about this, but he just said that if you wanna nail the squeal will cost you money, hopefully dimebag wah is very affordable at least for me. Just awesome
Ola, have you checked out The Showdown? Heavy Pantera vibes and great recording quality.
this is much easier if you have Morley wah or another kind that doesn't need to be clicked on and off. I remember trying this years ago but my main problem was just hitting the harmonic in the wrong place or getting string noise from adjacent strings. I now tend to hit harmonics in the mattias eklundh style i.e. just smacking the harmonic with the bar slightly depressed (slacker strings are easier to hit) which takes some practice but sounds cleaner to me.
Hey I got a question does anyone know what the best type of whammy bar bridge would be for a mlx style guitar especially for a Dean guitar one? I can't seem to find a good one for it so please lmk if there's anything I gotta know about it or if anyone knows a good one
WOW! I did not know this. AWESOME trick.
Thats on a Dimebag Dean which is 24.75 (i guess), can you do this on 25.5 (like some superstrat)? Will there be any difference? My 50$ junker falls apart and I consider getting something new. I did try 24.75 guitars, and they feel kinda funny. I cant afford having both. Guess I can adjust to 24.75 but if theres no difference to Dime squeals, why bother?
Dime made a video himself showing his harmonic squeal tricks, it’s on UA-cam “ Getcha Pull “ 🎸
i had a JS100 ibanez that did MORE than dimebags guitar... I just got lucky, and caught a guitar that was setup extremely well... when you catch one of those guitars, you feel invincible.. catch just one...
i could do as well on that cheap POS IBANEZ JS100 that was setup.... as dimebag did on his guitars... he just loves deans
my wife from downstairs: what is that ugly noise... TURN IT OFF!!!
I just started using a DAVA pick that is black plastic with a metal tip and the black plastic actually has a little bit of flexibility.
Yeah I’m going through strings much faster now but the metal tones and squeals are so much easier and clearer.
it's not secret! Dimebag himself teaches it, video in tokyo... use The Dunlop Dime Cry Baby from Hell.
I know this comment will get buried because it's commenting on a two year old video that debunks a mythos that I've had for the last two years, but I fucking hate that Zachary Wild got picked for guitars on this last tour. Nobody is more loyal to the school of Dimebag than Ola. I think it's a misssed opportunity that they didn't pick you for this job.
Woof!
In 2004 I hung out with Dimebag at an Arlington, TX. Strip club. He put his arm around my shoulder and said I was his brother. 😂 I love this!
We knew this in 1994...flick and dump and scream...I used a morley
Still not getting it can you explain more? Are you using a sustaniac combined with a Wah pedal?
Ola looks very sleepy or kinda baked.....Just like Dimebag!! Thanks for the killer tips
I had a dime wah for about 2 weeks. Until (we all have that friend) my buddy borrowed it... Never saw it again. Yeah.... He also took, I mean "borrowed" another buddies mixing board, and other recording equipment.... They always say " I didn't steal it, you never came for it" don't be that guy.....
HAHAHA I laughed so hard at 2:31 😂😂Nicely done Ola!
Hey Ola! I was wondering what you were connected to. Your Axe Fx III or the AmpliTube Dimebag plugin? Or something else?
Did anyone else try clicking on the video and found out that it was private?
Dudes... This was explained many years ago in Dean Guitar Forum, cmon people, haha :) I know I'm nobody here but let me tella ya this - I joined that forum more than 15 years ago and there is tons of Dime's secrets that have been discussed on that forum. This one is just a one of them that was explained in there... Too bad that forum is dead already and nobody knows much about it, but hey - good luck searching in it ;) Rock on fellas! \m/
Watching Miss Kayla Kent has inspired me to learn this! Thanks for sharing!
Hello Ola, the linked video is not available, it seems. Is there any other way to check it ?
Thanks much!!
ALRIGHT FINE I'll buy the Dimebag wah pedal
Let'er Rip How to: Dimebag Harmonic Squeals. This dude got it 4 years ago :)
Incredible. The wha gives a sustain information
Ola..Brother....what is it gonna take for you to come off that guitar? I NEED IT!!! lol
I do the same thing, but I have the wah running all the time, the Camo Dime one specifically because you can really fine tune the EQ, Dial out the mids on your amp a little bit, and on the pedal have it cocked all the way forward, on the range selector have it in position 1 all the way at the front, and the get some chugs going while you dial in the EQ and Fine Tuning on the pedal till it doesnt sound like its really a wah. That is what ive found to be my solution with the least amount of dancing around the pedals, that and the cocking function on my wah all out of whack so its just full bore all the time. However I need to try out one of the new black camo ones, maybe you should too
Shame on your Ola, you finally sneak a sponsor into your videos.... though I'm a Coke not Pepsi man myself so I still love you. Kidding of course 😂
As soon as is late enough to turn my amp on I’m going straight for the “Gaaaaaaaaaates” squeal. pray for my family
Or just learn it from Dime himself. There are two YT vids Dimebag's Found Lessons and a 6/3/93 Randall Clinic.
He also explains it in another video where he's doing slowed-down tutorials on his solos and stuff... It was during soundcheck with Damageplan in Japan in 2004.. I've seen it many times and I just tried to find it again... Wouldn't you know? I can't find it now lol
I've been doing that for years because I haven't got a booster in my pedal chain which what I had assumed Dime was using. There ya go. 🤙
I rember him also using the shit out of digitech wah pedal. Whole reason I got a digitech rp7 when I was younger. I still got that POS. LOL
Very cool and you can wah sweep into the squeal!
🤟🏼😎
@@R2R3Lockingnut In Dime we trust! R2
It also works better if you open your mouth wider during the squeal.
Yo bro your guitar is amazing, I also collect the Dimebag Dean error ML's is that from the dean Factory or was that custom-made by somebody that thing is amazing
You could do it with a Schecter Synyster gates custom S with the sustaniac , basically like having a built in whammy bar...
Do you specifically need a Floyd Rose to do these “Dime Squeals”?
From the rise solo I hear something over the squeal, anyone knows what effect it is? It sounds like something that harmonises it, it's probably a whammy but I'm not sure
I needed this. The technique is so unique and my whammy bar thanks you!!
The guys made the video Private now….:/ WTH
Hey Ola can u do a will it chug with the MXR Super Badass Distortion pedal?
Faq# Is it always necessary to open your mouth while pressing the Wah???
Awesome, thank you ! It's so stupid i Wonder why i never thought of it before.
hey Ola, can i get your dean configuration on this video. I kinda wanna know and try what’s the difference between the guitar that got the “Tone Knob” and the ones that are don’t. Thank You, horns from Indonesia.
