Ola Englund ..hey ola just wanted to share a quick amazing memory I had when I saw PANTERA live!..I saw them in "Houston ,Texas OZZ-Fest "! pantera and Black Sabath Reuinon Tour!! fucken AMAZZZING! dime-bag...Vince...Phil ...rex were so incredibly amazing!..ill never forget the words Phil said that night!..he goes were the kings of metal! and the Gods are up next!! I tell you what...I've seen Mettalica and slayer at the prime!..all those bands couldn't hold a candle against PANTERA at there prime!! they had the insane MOSH pits!! and remember OLA!! DIME WAS 1 GUITAR PLAYER!! NOT 2 OR 3 LIKE ALL THOSE OTHER BANDS! he crushes them all!! "STRONGER THAN ALL"!!😈👹
Ola, the tape that Dime put on his neck pickups was so that his pick didn't get caught on it. He really dug into his strings. Just thought the info would be helpful. Stay metal \m/
Enjoy brother Ola. You forgot to mention that the 95 Dimebolt and the Confederate Dime are both loaded with Futone blocks. Thanks once again for the shout out. You know what the deal meant for both of us and it was done the Boogie Street way. 🍻🍻🍻
Frank, Ola's video with you and you collection was one of his best! Just seeing the obvious love you both had for those guitars, your insane knowledge of each and everyone of them and watching Ola just lose himself with every guitar that he picked up was incredible.
when you look at it, deans most iconic guitars are just love children of multiple guitars. Cadillac is a LP and Explorer, ML is a v and exlorer, spit tail is an sg and v.
F $#*ing Awesome Ola....massive Pantera fan and Dimebag Guitar fan....I was lucky enough to see them live in Brixton Academy London in 94.....right down in the front with my brother in law. .... handsdown the best band I've ever seen.....also it's great to see you keeping Pantera alive....best of the Brothers spirit alive....love the passion....again thanks for a great video. .....keep it up....
WOW!!!!!PANTERA 1994🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻 Possibly the most awesome peak time of THAT unbelievable band!!! Must of been cool as fuck,!!!!! I was just leaving school😆 But got Cowboys on its release......and Vulgar..........on the bus to town at dinnertime, sprinted through town paid with my saved up dinner money, sprinted back and caught the same bus back to school🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻On my way out of the shop I put THAT tape into my Walkman........Mouth For War FUCKIN floored me!!! What a band🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
I saw them on the Trendkill tour...on Ozzfest, with Type O Negative and Fear Factory. It was the first Black Sabbath reunited date in MASS. It was INSANE!
I'm totally not into that ML-shape but I absolutely love the different finishes Dime has had on his guitars. And after that video there's only one question left: When is the ML-shaped Solar Guitar coming out? ;-)
Never. Dean guitars (Armadillo) owns the ML shape. And given the lawsuit of Gibson I doubt Dean would be allowing anyone else to use their ML shape. So the Solar ML would have to be different from the ML shape. Also Ola said in one of his videos he would not just make a ripoff guitar.
Yeah there's also some irony in this because Dean apparently recently tried suing a guy on Instagram called cfhmachado who makes some seriously awesome Dime replica guitars, which are actually more like the Washburn stealth than a Dean ML anyway. Karma is indeed a bitch.
That's a hell of a collection man, Congrats! I've been listening to Black Label for ages & didn't even realize they had a 2nd guitarist. Looked it up & found out quickly why you said his name isn't what it used to be...lol
I love the videos Ola been watching for years. I've been through a lot lately and your videos have been helping me through my dark times and have also been learning a lot and playing a lot more because of your videos. Thank you for the inspiration thank you for the content. I just bought a A2.7TBR I can't wait for my first solar. Words can't Express my gratitude!
@Colby Dipsen ya he did of course it's all opinion but seeing Dime play countless times since 90 I live in Texas and they played here regular ppl don't realize how much Rex held the bottom end Dimebag was treble few mids and bass. I was at the "practice" gig in 94 when we sent them off to conquer the world
WOW!!!!!!!.... Dude,...what an absolutely amazing collection. I couldn't think of a better dude to own such a collection, you do a f___ing awesome job with all of the dime videos brother. You deserve every one of those guitars, and I'm positive Dime would say so himself!.... Love your channel and everything you do brother!
Best Video in AGES IMHO. I notice people bitching that they sound the same. Well no crap. They are all DIME guitars so they sound like Dime Guitars and the rig is the same in each so yeah. Sounds similar. I applaud your creativity and your taste in guitars. Thanks very much for making this video. It's the type of content that got me started watching your stuff years ago.
Cool guitars! I’ve actually got the BSG prototype that “The Cross” was based on. It has a quilt top instead of flame and it doesn’t have the first inlay.
How long did Ola tease us when he first got the Southern cross? Here let me make several vids and not mention the fucking thing lol. Absolutely fantastic Video, Ola! We are all so happy that you finally got your holy grail and it sounds absolutely magnificent
Nice! Btw, when are you going to make ml shaped Solar guitars? They're the most comfortable guitars to play both sitting and standing, and Solar seems to be the perfect brand for this.
@@AUM_-po9sc In light of recent weeks events with Gibson and the shit ton of good publicity and support Dean has gotten, I don't see them suing anyone.
The tape on the sides is so that the strings won't get caught on the pickup when you preform dives. The notches on the knobs is something that Dean did on all of the dime guitars, even my import Razorback has them
I am quickly becoming a fan of yours. Love your videos and appreciate your love for Dime & Pantera. I live in DFW and watched those guys come up the ranks and blow up in 90'.... Super sick Dime collection!!!!!
Awesome collection! Haven't got even close to one of these beauties in my live yet. Question: how are these guitars tuned? Is it E flat with a=437.5hz or what exactly? And did Washburn always ship those with Dime´s tuning? What is your opinion about this tuning? For me it always was a pain in the ass to jam with Pantera records, I always thought my tuner was broken. At least it made me learn to tune by ears. Thanks Dime!
This is crazy. I only started playing in Dec 2019, though I grew up listening to Dime & Vinnie Paul from like 1989 or 1990. I've been playing over 2 years now and I just came to the realization that Dime has a HUGE, HUGE, HUGE impact on me as a guitar player. He's one of the people who inspire me the most and I had no idea until I met my friend Mike a few weeks ago. He plays and his favorite player is Dime. So I started talking with him about Dime and that's when it hit me who Dime was. Until then, it never came together in my brain that Dime that was killed at his show was the Pantera dude and one of the guys I looked up to the most as a guiyar player. I was overcome with emotion, Ola. Just like what's happening now. 😢 I know he's up there playing lullabies and squeals for my daughter, Kenzie. At least I can take comfort in that. 🤘❤️🙏🎸
Super cool man , thanks for sharing with us. The two Southern Cross guitars and the Rebel Flag were amazing sounding and just jumped out at you and screamed !
So happy for you Ola! I got to see Dimebag and actually caught his guitar pick he threw into the audience-true story. I was then bum rushed by two big dudes who ripped it out of my hands. Still, I got to witness the man in action in his prime around 1998 or 1999. What a show! Cool guitars Ola. Seriously you deserve these bad boys! You rock!
Southern Cross is correct. As someone raised in the South, I can tell you that most people just fly it for Southern Pride. And it's a beautiful flag in my opinion. Love it just as much as the Filipino flag, the flag of the Land that birthed me.
I live in colorado but i still have that southern pride from being born in south carolina and i want one of those flags on a dean, its for sure a pride thing.
@@henneburgers2194 Eh, I was being partly facetious. Racism is part of the DNA of the Confederacy, an intrinsic quality of its origins and character; in fact, the Confederate Constiution explicitly advocates racist ideology. This doesn't necessarily mean it can't be redefined or reinvented, however. Cultural symbolism rapidly evolves and develops. Now, it may be beneficial to disempower it's erstwhile racism and expropriate it's hereditary qualities. The only issues I see are: 1. If we use the Confederate Flag to symbolize the history and heritage of the South, are we not empowering hate since the Southern history and heritage it evokes are those of racism and hatred? Can we in good conscience separate these? I would argue that if we can't, the flag remains a symbol of either satire or hate since yo redefine it you would need a different majority public opinion 2. Given the first considerations, would there be better options to harken back to Southern heritage and culture? Is it ineffective and misplaced compared to other options? Lastly, I find it ironic that you accuse me of an educational deficiency while you commit an ad hominem fallacy. P.S. I am Southern.
Man you made my heart kinda hurt at the end. I could feel it in my chest man you are upset about Dime like us. Just makes you so relatable and human. You’re a great guy.
Thats really awesome ola man im happy for you i have an old dime slime that i know nothing about other than ive had it for 20 years and it was a few years old when i bought it
Was just watching the first guitar collection video last night (for the hundredth time) so this could not have come at a better time! P.S. No one is more worthy of such a collection, well wear!
bottlemanic All I know is that is about the same quality as the Dime 3s and that it was a funky munky guitar. I bought mine for $350. Mine also has a dimebucker and a 59 in the neck
It's a pretty cool chinese made guitar, it's a Funky Munky but most of them do not have the logo behind the headstock, and it's clearly not as good as a FM Slime or a FM Bolt. Yes it's pretty rare, if it's in great condition it might be worth 700-800$ these days.
Right on Ola!!sweet collection..I have the same love for Washburn custom shops..only mines the Nuno Bettencourt N4s..they have the same pickup configuration..the Lawrence and the 59..best pickup combo on the planet..I'm watching and I can feel the love you have for those cuz I do as well..I bet at any givin time you'll go open up a case and just hold one,look at,flip it over and over..I know many times I'll watch t.v and just have it leaning next to me on the coach..lol..not sure if your the same but I get the feeling...who needs a woman in a G String when you got a washburn custom shop that wears a G string just as well and you can finger it whenever you want..I love those Dime Guitars Bro..I just subscribed to ya my friend and look forward to more of your videos...God Blessed us with Dimebag and you have a piece of that..DIMEBAG DARRELL ABBOTT..R.I.P
I came back to this video after a while and couldve sworn he had a rebel guitar too. I guess he edited it out? I thought i was tripping or something lol
Both of those Crosses are beautiful... especially the Southern Cross. I’m sure you can replace the control cavity cover fairly easily. Way to remain diplomatic as far as your comments there went. LOL... LOVE all of your stuff, Ola!
Holy shit Ola this is sooooo cool! I didn't even know about the Southern Cross guitars until your videos, but fair play that definitely is the sexiest Dimebag sig I've ever seen
I'll swap ya my indonesian BC Rich Gunslinger in racing yellow for the Southern Cross, the USA version of course, how about it? can't get any fairer than that!
This Collection is AWESOME.. I'm surprised that Frank let the "Southern Cross" go... But....I can tell You're Stoked.. as would any Serious Dime Fan .. .I Love this Video... Thanks Ola.. :-)
Growing up in the south and with pantera in the 2000s the rebel flag was just that "Cool flag on fimes guitar, the general lee charger, and the flag in from of the georgia capital building" It wasnt as BIG of a deal just ten years ago as it is now. And although even being a conservative, i can understand why some see it in a negative light, but its also the flag not only I, but many others grew up around seeing it as nothing more than a symbol and pop culture icon. I think everyone should try to look as what it means to some people. Unless its the Klan, fuck the Klan
Turk tom petty stated he regretted using it and was a stupid thing to do. Personally I am not a fan of the flag, but should that interfere with my love for dime and pantera? Absolutely not.
@@splattercatbambi4965 There is nothing wrong with that flag, it's southern history and they're proud of it, not because of slavery. You're not from the south, that much is clear. I'm not either but why would it bother me?
@@StoicTrader- the flags portrayal and popularity doubled when the civil rights act was past, which leads me to believe that most people use it as a racist dogwhistle. Furthermore, taking pride in your ancestors accomplishments is also very cringe, yes.
Being that I'm a drummer I still get off looking at Dimes signature guitars through the years. He was truly one of my biggest inspirations!!! Getcha Pull!!
Great post Ola, always very interesting. I simply love the way you bring in your personal and very knowledgeable input. You are the guitar metal historian of our times!

I love how much Ola bigs up these other guitars whilst also having to run his own guitar company. So humble and genuine 🤘
YES! I love Ola so much for this. He is a very good role model for it. So humble.
Yeah I thinks that it is important not to bad mouth other companies while trying to bring yours up. Not a good image...
Iirc the ola solar started out as Washburn
thanks
Ola owns Solar?
"So, Dimebag, you want your guitar to be like the Explorer or the V model?"
"Why not both?"
Yeah... nope.
both of you have the same sense of humor as a dense, sentient cabbage.
Petri Viinikanoja this is funny but the no was already a model when he got it

This video of you explaining all of the Dimebag guitars convinced my parents into buying me one. Thanks man! Love ur content!
(Rip Vinnie and Dime)
Man. War Nerve. Great sound 👍🏻 Dimebag gave so much color to metal. Love your enthousiasm!
That rebel guitar was my favorite. Has my favorite song off TGSTK too
It’s not in the video
No Dime Slime?
That finish is in the top of my wishlist
Great collection btw. I hope I can get a solar guitars collection
The only slimes I can ever find are the Chinese imports 🤢
You could always buy the US but they are 3 grand
I wanted to buy Franks Dimeslime but he wouldn't let it go ...
I have a slime, but it’d be tough for me to give up because my father got it for me and it was a big deal for him to get that for me.
I have a Slime, too, but it's not a USA model, Boogie Street custom or a knock-off Chinese one. It's the mid-tier Korean with a green back.

Never, of course. Dean will sue him for that.
@@AUM_-po9sc In light of recent weeks events with Gibson and the shit ton of good publicity and support Dean has gotten, I don't see them suing anyone.
Nah the most comfortable shapes are the Tele and single cut

Single cuts are overrated.
I loved the chuckle when mentioning Nick Catanese. We all know what he did and I think you worded it perfectly without drama. Great video.
😂😂😂 loved the intro hook! Great collection by the way, some historical guitars
I remember seeing the Dime Slime ad on TV back in the day.
Nice collection BRO!!!
We miss you Dime, we miss you Vinnie.
Until we all meet once again in God's Tavern...
Ola can u teach me the riff at 2:12 PLEASE IT SOUND S AMAZING
There's a picture on Google images of Nick Cantanese playing the southern cross guitar so I'd assume it's that one since it's signed by him and Zakk.
The Confederate Dime is amazing . The color is just perfect . Great collection btw,
The flag guitar is absolutely gorgeous! Id love to have one. Id settle for a dean dixie rebel but they're so damn hard to find as well.
Yeah I want the Dixie rebel too.
For me it’s the rebel razorback… 100 in existence. I’d LOVE one
The tape on the sides is so that the strings won't get caught on the pickup when you preform dives. The notches on the knobs is something that Dean did on all of the dime guitars, even my import Razorback has them
Love the Washburn Dime guitars. They were kingfish in their time. I'm sure they still are. People forget overtime
I just like that they’re pointier lol. Seems more fitting for Dime, but those Deans are still a piece of history.
You upload so early in the morning for me, but you are halfway across the world for me.
Time Zones is amazing
Who remembered when Ola showing the rebel flag guitar before he edited out?

Am I the only one that thinks Regular People has one of the sickest riffs??? That song doesn't get enough love
Agreed. That riff is monumental.
@13:21 how is it the paper work was signed by dime and made in 2004?
Great collection! I used to have a Dime 3 dineslime in the late 90‘s and was dumb enough to sell it 🤦🏼♂️
I had the blackjack 333 and i sold it like a dumbass!!
Same, sold it to Guitar Center for $600, I miss it dearly now, especially with the insane prices they go for now.

loved the southern cross !! thats my favorite!! greetings from south alabama !!
The rebel flag design is still my favorite. I could give 2 sh*ts what anyone else thinks, and I think it embodies Dime's sentiment perfectly as well.
The fact it pisses off so many people just makes it that much cooler.
You inconsiderate racist biggens! Lmao jk that’s my fav too
Super cool man , thanks for sharing with us. The two Southern Cross guitars and the Rebel Flag were amazing sounding and just jumped out at you and screamed !
The dime rebel guitar is probably one of my favourites because during their san jose show he used it for the cemetery gates solo

I would be happy with any one of them but that last one had that Dime tone & setup just dialed in perfect !!
Now you just need a Slime finish and you're good to go !
Thats really awesome ola man im happy for you i have an old dime slime that i know nothing about other than ive had it for 20 years and it was a few years old when i bought it
The Confederate guitar is my all time favorite dime guitar! Heritage not hate!
Was just watching the first guitar collection video last night (for the hundredth time) so this could not have come at a better time! P.S. No one is more worthy of such a collection, well wear!
Hey Ola, a couple months ago I purchased a Washburn WE333SC. Do you know how much they are worth/how rare they are? I couldn’t find much on google.
The camo one Yeah? I have the same. Couldn't tell you much either as the info surrounding them seems to be scarce
bottlemanic
All I know is that is about the same quality as the Dime 3s and that it was a funky munky guitar. I bought mine for $350. Mine also has a dimebucker and a 59 in the neck
@@chaytonbehnke3908 Nope, not this one. It's 100% similar to a 333.
It's a pretty cool chinese made guitar, it's a Funky Munky but most of them do not have the logo behind the headstock, and it's clearly not as good as a FM Slime or a FM Bolt.
Yes it's pretty rare, if it's in great condition it might be worth 700-800$ these days.
Right on Ola!!sweet collection..I have the same love for Washburn custom shops..only mines the Nuno Bettencourt N4s..they have the same pickup configuration..the Lawrence and the 59..best pickup combo on the planet..I'm watching and I can feel the love you have for those cuz I do as well..I bet at any givin time you'll go open up a case and just hold one,look at,flip it over and over..I know many times I'll watch t.v and just have it leaning next to me on the coach..lol..not sure if your the same but I get the feeling...who needs a woman in a G String when you got a washburn custom shop that wears a G string just as well and you can finger it whenever you want..I love those Dime Guitars Bro..I just subscribed to ya my friend and look forward to more of your videos...God Blessed us with Dimebag and you have a piece of that..DIMEBAG DARRELL ABBOTT..R.I.P
Was the rebel guitar edited out because it’s just controversial?
I came back to this video after a while and couldve sworn he had a rebel guitar too. I guess he edited it out? I thought i was tripping or something lol
Came here for the same thing.
Same I rember it too
Its cool seeing these, and almost better listening to them back to back to hear the small differences between them
Your a Lucky Dog!!!! The Southern Cross is absolutely stunning \^^/
You have sold me on the dime series, never was a big fan of them. Now I want one.
Do a video about swedish black metal vs norwegion black metal
NORDIC_SATANIST no
Both of those Crosses are beautiful... especially the Southern Cross. I’m sure you can replace the control cavity cover fairly easily. Way to remain diplomatic as far as your comments there went. LOL... LOVE all of your stuff, Ola!
I was getting ready to like this comment, then I realized I was the one who left it 3 years ago. Lol
"Nick Catanese is not as hot of a name as he was back in the day"
Understatement of the year.
Holy shit Ola this is sooooo cool! I didn't even know about the Southern Cross guitars until your videos, but fair play that definitely is the sexiest Dimebag sig I've ever seen
I'll swap ya my indonesian BC Rich Gunslinger in racing yellow for the Southern Cross, the USA version of course, how about it? can't get any fairer than that!
Upgrade that Gunslinger heavily and get famous. A walk in the park, dude.
I must confess I do love my gunslinger : ) Ola forgot to show off his Dime snakeskin I've seen him use in this video.
Harry Callahan don’t think it’s his guitar, I remember him saying in another video he borrowed the snakeskin one but was looking to buy it
This Collection is AWESOME..
I'm surprised that Frank let the "Southern Cross" go...
But....I can tell You're Stoked.. as would any Serious Dime Fan .. .I Love this Video...
Thanks Ola.. :-)
I passed her to a mate. I know where she is and how much she is loved. It is in a good hands.
Growing up in the south and with pantera in the 2000s the rebel flag was just that "Cool flag on fimes guitar, the general lee charger, and the flag in from of the georgia capital building" It wasnt as BIG of a deal just ten years ago as it is now. And although even being a conservative, i can understand why some see it in a negative light, but its also the flag not only I, but many others grew up around seeing it as nothing more than a symbol and pop culture icon. I think everyone should try to look as what it means to some people. Unless its the Klan, fuck the Klan
@Tiger Woods Ironoc coming from a guy with the same username as a wife beater.
Very nice collection, beautiful guitars.
Guitare Dime confederate "Drag the waters" is my favorite 🤘🤘🤘 spirit of Dimebag
The dream video!! I just got my first Washburn Dime for my birthday!!
No Dime fan would ever think the confederate flag is a problem.... Tom Petty used it on an album, ffs.
Turk tom petty stated he regretted using it and was a stupid thing to do. Personally I am not a fan of the flag, but should that interfere with my love for dime and pantera? Absolutely not.
Splattercatbambi for sure
@@splattercatbambi4965 There is nothing wrong with that flag, it's southern history and they're proud of it, not because of slavery. You're not from the south, that much is clear. I'm not either but why would it bother me?
@@StoicTrader- the flags portrayal and popularity doubled when the civil rights act was past, which leads me to believe that most people use it as a racist dogwhistle. Furthermore, taking pride in your ancestors accomplishments is also very cringe, yes.
The flag on itself means nothing but it sadly was associated with racism and the KKK and we cant just look past that
It’s a good thing you had a guitar playing video tucked away
The confederate dime and the general Lee (dukes of hazard) are American classics that should never need an apology.
Being that I'm a drummer I still get off looking at Dimes signature guitars through the years. He was truly one of my biggest inspirations!!! Getcha Pull!!
You lucky rich man XD
Finally someone who loves dimebag as much i do.. man i respect all the dimebag videos to me dimebag was god n also my hero
The Confederate flag finish is my ALL TIME favorite Dimebag guitar !
You have no idea what I would do for one of those guitars😂😂😂
Great post Ola, always very interesting. I simply love the way you bring in your personal and very knowledgeable input. You are the guitar metal historian of our times!
