Gear Highlight: Dean Dime Slimebolt Razorback



The Dean Dime Slimebolt Razorback is an awesome guitar with many cools specs and a lot of tone. This guitar features the sweet Razorback shape designed by Dimebag Darrel himself, Dime's signature pickups by Seymour Duncan and Dean, an Original Floyd Rose (a first in the Dime line of guitars by Dean. All other Dime's use licensed Floyd Roses), set neck, Grover tuners, V inlays with a Razor at the twelfth fret, and the sweet lightning graphics Dime is known for having, but in green.

This guitar is an amazing collector's item for any Dime/Pantera fan. The guitar is also a powerhouse of tone, being made of mahogany and having Dime's signature sound. Riffs come out nice and heavy and solos are clean and clear. The neck is also made thinner compared to all other Dime signatures to allow for faster playing. The Original Floyd is a lot smoother feeling compared to the licensed Floyds. The Grovers tuners make tuning the guitar faster and help to keep the tuning in place better than most other tuners. Overall, this is a great guitar and much better than its sister guitars.

The average price on this guitar is $1099.00 plus tack.
