Dimebag died!?

NOOOO!

 

[Chryst Krispies]

Dave looks like shit in this.

 

[Nebulous]

I didn't watch the vid all the way through and my sound is not on at the moment, but it looks like a normal Explorer to me. What's the big deal? Where's the "joke"?

James?

Gods, who cares? James has played V's and LP's as well. You think Mustaine gives a shit anymore?

 

[Metaltastic]

OH right, I forgot Hetfield used to play a white explorer - man, that was ages ago though, wasn't it? (like AJFA era)

 

[raybrochill]

that is one ugly explorer... I don't think it would be as bad if the butt end wasn't so massive

 

[Jind]

Dave should just go back to the tried and true BC Rich Bich 10 and be done with it.

Probably a requirement to balance out the longer scale neck.

Yes, if he was honest in the gay drama movie Some Kind of Monster. That movie really made them all look like a bunch of girly faggot pricks.

 

[bpcrshooter15]

the best part is "it's more like a weapon, it's not one of those old explorers that belongs in a church band."

 

[Metaltastic]

Hahahahahah, what a random image to associate with the classic Explorer shape (though FWIW, I prefer pointier takes on both the original Gibson V and Explorer designs, but I don't necessarily think the originals are that lame )

 

[16S]

I would say Hetfield is reasonably associated with the Explorer esp. his White "EETFUK" one, so i think this Dean Mustaine model is pretty funny.
And i think it is one fucking ugly guitar. What is with the dot and drift inlays??

He still to this day brings up Metallica in just about every interview he does.

 

[John_C]

Hetfield and the explorer go hand in hand for me

it strikes me as another "i used to be on in metallica you know...." moment

Every interviewer brings it it up you mean.

 

[Nitrobattery]

Every interviewer brings it it up you mean.

Some do, but if they don't Dave has no problem throwing in a Metallica comment completely out of the blue.

 

[16S]

...But do any of you think it is a nice looking guitar?? I hate those "boomerrang" style bridges and the head stock just doesnt work with the body

 

[Felix Neumann]

Mmmm this guitar is not fitting well to him. Seems like he´s processing another Metallica trauma subconsciously
