I'm definitely interested in seeing the upgrades take place and update videos man!

Dude I wanna see more of this! For around 300- 400 I wouldn't care if the electronics and trem are trash. If the Guitar is decently assembled has no dead frets and plays fine I gladly change to some duncans proper wiring and slap on a real floyd.

I feel like if you had extra parts to upgrade it as long as it’s aesthetically pleasing what can really be that bad about it

I'd gut every piece of hardware, wire and frets. And cross my fingers the neck is good and adjustable.

Can’t wait to see where this project goes! You got yourself a new subscriber!

Some of these are copies of really hard to find signature pieces and limited edditions. I like to think of them like museum replicas. Nah it ain't Michaelangelo's original David but the pee pee just as smol.

I've got a Dime razzorback and absolutely love it. I got it cheap for the same price you paid for this one. My question is. When you slam the whammy with bombs and squeals - does it stay in tune? Because the original razorback does

I will find out if it stays in tune in the next video. I never actually tried to set it up before I took it apart because it was pretty bad. Super high action which I was able to adjust pretty nicely.

Definitely wall hanger at best but....still fun. I ordered the Ace Frehley model which is one I always wanted but could never, ever afford. At least I have something to remind me of my youth.

Grover aren't any good anymore either. I had a hundred plus dollar pair of Grover tuning keys on a custom BC Rich warlock bass, within a year of light used one of them snaped like a potato chip. The $20 ones you get on Amazon or actually more durable. Wouldn't be surprised if they're made in the same factory.

The top, it came completely broken... I guess now I can play that little song properly

The main differences with mine are that the color is off and it's super super thick other than that for the price it wasn't bad I wish I just ordered a husk and did the in sanding myself or told them to send it to a certain size But at the end of the day they are definitely not offs more so something to just hanging on your wall

I bought slime copy and its Modeled after a washburn so it has the diamond value end off center head stock in body these this one looks like it's copythat after a dean with the squared off heel joint in the normal value

Semore duncan dimebuckers you can get them from K.S.M music in Logan Utah.....

Sucky Floyd Rose is what it is definitely needs upgrade. Pick ups are obviously off and doubt they are very good bought fakes before with bad pick ups. You didn't get hurt too badly it looks like but definitely would change the pick ups and the bridge besides that you didn't get burnt that bad i would probably only gave two hundred dollars for it.

My thoughts are no more fake guitars . They need to much work , sharp ftret ends n buzzing .

Youre not wrong. Its nice to buy one that needs nothing.

The Duncan neck pickup is the alnico 2 pro but the Dean Seymour Duncan pickups are made of parchment that makes them sound better like vintage paf guitars.

You said the stock pickups sound like shit. TBF a good guitar player can make the cheapest guitar sound amazing. I'm taking your comments with a grain of salt until I can get my hands on the one I ordered.

While that has some truth, you definitely want hot pickups to get the metal sound. When I say these sound bad, its because everything I have has either Duncans or Bill Lawrence pickups in it.

I know he had one while he was in Damageplan, he used it in one of their music videos. Also, the Dimebag Rig Project is good stuff. I have ordered s few things from that guy and every time it has been solid.

I've looked for this guitar and all I see are the ones with the Washburn asymmetrical headstock. Can you tell me where you got this one or provide a link? I can't find one with the Dean matching finish headstock anywhere.

Maybe its just the angle of the pictures?

This is very terrible, any left model with the single humbucker?! This looks like the last episode of Renegade. Strobe light sold separately, I guess. A relic from the Clinton's era. I don't know. Namastè.

Many of these cheaper guitars start to fall apart after some time...the glues and fretboard will have issues, I had the electronics start failing after a couple years on similar stuff. It's like building a really nice "looking" house from a distance, but it's just a Hollywood set and foundation is crap, lol.

Looks cool as fuck. The necks kind of suck though. Too round. Literally all u need is just a new tremelo and pickups and good to go. Sick!!

Sound???mdf

To be honest dimebag is one of the greatest guitar players ever.......... But he played Dean and Washburn. Dean's are Garbage, and Washburn used to be good but now they're made in China, the couple newer ones I've seen had some mistakes that shouldn't of made it past quality control. Honestly maybe with the exception of pickups I would expect the workmanship to be a little better on your guitar

@Latushka

Dean definitely has slacked on quality control in recent years. I cant remember if I mention it in this video, but I paid $1350 for a new Slime Stealth and it shows up with finish cracks near the neck joint. I contacted the store I got it from, they said theyd send another. Upon their inspection, all their stealths and slime MLs had cracks. On the Dean pages, there are lots of people dealing with the same thing. I have an actual 1979 patent pending V, and no finish cracks and its 44 years old. The original Deans are great and I see why Dime liked them. You're definitely paying for the name with these newer ones and not the quality sadly.
