too much bass and not enough mids. Mids are the body of the guitar sound (that's why mid's name in my amp is "body") and cutting too much mids you are kind of "stealing" from basses and kick drum's "area".

I guess you haven't listened to Pantera loud through something other than headphones.

I knew Dime when he was 16 or 17 (met him in Arnold and Morgan music Garland TX; sat next to him and said who the f$%@ is this little skinny guy making monstrous tone with his fingers flying across the fretboard) and watched him play in clubs from the beginning of Pantera. I would talk to him frequently about his tone to the point he called me the "tone guy". I was not "friends" with him but playing in clubs and recording around the same time and we talked some. Before he played Randall's (he bought at Spear Music in Mesquite TX) he played a Yamaha solid state. I bought the same amp to mimic his tone and I/It sounded like sh#$. Yes, so much is in the fingers. I did incorporate a Randall RG100ES into my rig paired with a 50w JCM 800 (his advice on two amps one cleanish and one nasty; the Randall was my nasty one). It sounded wonderful; very different from his but his advice worked. Dime was always so nice at sharing whatever he could to help other musicians. He really lived for the music. I also saw Randy Rhoads live (my guitar hero) about month before his death. So many good ones go way to early.

The actual answer to that is get a metal distortion pedal (Boss MetalZone or Behringer Ultra Metal) with a mid sweep, then find a mid freq. that is similar to the one boosted by Fortin Grind's and 33's (Around 2 or 3K, quite high on the mid sweep knob, close to or pretty much at max) boost highs, cut bass, palm mute above the pickup, use a good, bright, tight humbucker, and that's it. Ola's tone for 30 bucks (Provided you get a generic but good Aliexpress PU and the Ultra Metal...)

I’ve had a little PRS SE 24 for about 10 years that I put a Seymour Duncan Pegasus/Sentient set in years ago and just recently installed a Graphtech Ghost piezo system into the saddles and man, that little guitar does metal so well! Quarantine happened and decided to install a piezo system after years of wanting one. I ordered a new bridge and drilled some holes to make room for the piezo saddles, upgraded the tuners to SE locking tuners and had it wired so there’s a master electric volume with a push/pull coil split and the tone knob is now a piezo acoustic volume. Its set up to C# standard +40cents dimebag style and honestly ive never had so much fun playing guitar. Using bias fx for the dimebag tone and have the acoustic going through an interface and being able to play all the acoustic parts then switch immediate to electric in Pantera’s songs is awesome!

He said it was a "very tight" flange on "almost all the time" and "the one secret he wanted to keep". Also, some of those riffs are supposed to be in drop-D and the "harmonics" on 'Mouth for War' was actually done by pressing the strings against the neck pickup, as least in the studio.

To me, Dime was very unique. His approach to playing was very unusual. His choice of solid state, I think, played a huge role in his absolutely supreme metal sound. To my ears, nothing is heavier than Dime. NOTHING.

Sounds weird but thanks to Ola I started listening to Pantera and I can't believe that so many years have passed and I didn't realize how amazing Dimebag is ... now every day I try to play his solos and I hope to upload one of them

Loved Dimes playing! His use of Texas Swing was insane. It was like taking a portion of Stevi Ray Vaughan's style and turning it to 11 then putting overdrive on top of that.

Besides all the time and work you put into your production, I really appreciate the humor. Always picks me up :)

Well for me it was still not close. Dime's drive had amazing overtones (almost like octaver before drive) when played squeals or higher notes. I remember when I tried Boss MT-2 (I know what you are thinking about it) it had amazing overtones and reminded Dime's tone. Knowing that MT-2 have pre-distortion EQ built in with bass & hi-mid peaks give me idea that Dime used those EQ with boosting Highs and maybe bass too (or cutting mids). So there's some food for thought.

@crazyerko

NeZversTutorials Nope, he always boosted the mids the most on the mxr eq and the PQ units, I've researched the exact settings. His rg 100 settings were bass 7, mid 4, high 5. Where some scooping possibly happened was an aphex exciter in the effect loop

@modal_derp

I have that pile of shit pedal too, and I modded it. I find it best do use it as a boost, to make sure the mids are higher than the rest, and then tweak the amp. Sounds punchy af. Usually my bass ends up slightly above 12 oclock, and my ever so slightly below 12, or if it's off, then i increase the a bit. But then I have a SD Dimebucker, and that's one hell of a great high-gain passive pickup.

Thing is, the coils are the same. Each has a pair of identical magnets and the same amount of winding, there is no "hot" coil, as confirmed by Bill himself. And the same goes for majority of humbuckers (except those which have different coils, like DiMarzio Crunch Lab). It's a placebo more than anything. The only way I see it could make a difference is because of poor quality control (cuz both B&B and BLUSA have never been major manufacturers) resulting in slightly more winding on one coil.

Actually I think it's because of the opposite. You can dial in the MXR to be EXTREMELY mid crunchy. Like, much more than a Tubescreamer or SD-1. When I tested it out, doing a 6-band with the mids in an extreme frowny face nailed it. The attack and buzzsaw was there. When I tried the TS or SD-1, there was still lots of mud and the precise attack wasnt there. It sounded more "tubey" while the 6-band gave it that extremely artificial attack that Dimebag had.

It took a very long time, before Audio Engineers had learned the totally different terrain of solid state circuitry music tone amplification design (vs. tube/valve circuitry), well enough, to be able to offer the music making community a broad selection of different types of good-sounding, very usable tonalities. Long after I had been deeply involved with the band scene, I began hearing, inserted into different TV shows, bits and pieces of excellent rock guitar playing, with this distinctive, massive-sounding, grinding-distorted guitar tone, that was instantly recognizable! Having heard it here and there, I wondered, "Who the heck is that?". Eventually, I discovered Pantera & Dimebag Darrell Abbott, and realized that I had been either hearing excerpts from Dimebag's playing, or hearing someone playing with Dimebag's style & sound. I understand that, for most of his career, he had an exclusively solid-state signal chain for his distinctive sound! Dimebag's style not only was right for the times, it's still exciting to listen to. His contribution was huge!

the best massive distortion I've ever heard! No one can overcome it :D good tuto man.

After the noise gate was introduced there was also a very weird metallic fizz at the end of sound when the gate closes. Would be nice to hear a workaround for that. Other than that, wow! You got a really ballsy sound. Ballsier than Dimebag's tone was on record (I think you had more punch and low end than he used) and I preferred your tone for those riffs. Maybe I'm thinking too much of the first records though. Well done Ola. The gain structure was definitely right but I think Dime's tone was a lot thinner on the first albums. That's probably why I prefer your approach to his sound. Good video.

what amps did he use on the metal magic album?? :]

This comment thread is a fucking wreck holy hell.

What is the name of this background song ?? at the beginning of the video

I've got the Randall RG3003 (300 watt version) and let it be noted that baby has a built in noise gate. These current Randall solid state heads are underrated. That was a secret to dimes tone. That cold, yet brutal staccato distortion of those ss amps. Love it or hate it, it changed the world of metal. One of these days I'll spring for an all tube Randall like the Thrasher or, gasp* the Satan. Run them both at the same time and level the neighborhood. You tha man Ola, keep up the good work

Is the built in noise gate good? I’m really considering buying one bcs they are $250 less right now

I'm just glad that imo your tone is the unbeatable one and I could sound pretty much exactly like you with my setup

The Randall RG100es is not hard to come buy. I can get one for 400 bucks on ebay anytime I would like.

Amp EQ changed a little bit between albums from what I understand. Scooped mids in early work and a bit more mids later on. Regarding strings, here's a quote from him. "“I’m using two different custom-gauged sets of DR strings which will soon be released as signature sets. One set is .009-.046 set and the other is .009-.050. I use the heavier strings on the lower tunings.“ Btw, those strings are now made by DR Strings.

TheKumara No the scoop tone is in the recording because the tone is thin and gainy and the bass made the sound scooped. It is actually no bass high mids high highs tone.

Very nice tutorial as usual.
