Critic Reviews

Dean Dime-O-Flame ML review | MusicRadar

musicradar.com

The Dean Dimebag Dime O Flame ML is an electrifying tribute to Dimebag Darrell, offering a significant upgrade over the DBD Tribute model. With its solid mahogany construction, set neck, and authentic Floyd Rose tremolo, it delivers superior tone and build quality. The standout Seymour Duncan Dimebucker pickup provides an aggressive sound true to Dimebag's style. However, the price jump is substantial, making it a choice for serious players who value authenticity and performance. Overall, it's a compelling option for those looking to capture the iconic metal sound with flair.

Does what it is meant to.

As a signature model of "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott's, this guitar does exactly what you would expect when large amounts of gain are applied. As Dime often had to do himself, pieces of foam have been stuck behind the springs on the Floyd and right behind the locking nut so as to prevent excess noise during palm muting (a metallic ping can often be heard otherwise). While the Dimebucker is great (though often listed as inferior to the Bill Lawrence Dime used prior to the pickups creation), the Dean designed neck pickup really stands out, with a buttery tone that can really sing the blues.
