It's great to see Paul rip it up happily. I mean, a guitar with awesome feel is ALL that would put this sort of pro into that ultimate "happy zone" we all love. ;)
@TurkeyTuck Well, USA guitars are generally overpriced as there generally isn't much quality between them and the high end Asian stuff but I can see why as a lead/metal player you'd like a floyd. Dave's never had a floyd on his V's. I'd never have a floyd on my guitars because its too unpractical when compared to the benefits. Especially as a rhythm player, which Mustaine essentially is.
@TurkeyTuck Paul isn't really much of a metal player. He's more of a hard rock guy, which is fine...but it's not like it's Metal Mike or anything reviewing the guitar. He's not a guy who bases most of his playing style around ultra tight tremelo picking and power chords. Thus, he's really not the best equipped to review these types of instruments. Livewires have crappy mids and weak lows. Andy Sneap pretty much forced the 81/85 combo on Dave during their recording sessions.
I have this guitar in Flamed Red Number 47/50. I know it sounds great but Im still wondering If neck through is better. All I know is I did not get screwed. and I rarely get screwed. But I consider an HIgh end Jackson.
All this talk about the sound but we don't get to know what amp and setting is being used. With the right set up you can make a Fender sound big and meaty.
@m4f14d4d You could get a nice Schecter Jeff Loomis signature with Floyd Rose Original, EMG 707, solid body with neck thru construction, maple "half oiled" fretboard and plus it's a seven string guitar, only $899 dollar Uhm...
@MikeBassil Well I got the VMNTX (the $400 one) and it is fucking annoying to play with. I hate sitting with it, it wobbles around when I stand, and it's extremely hard to reach anything higher than the 19th fret when playing something such as triplets.
@dcp10200 Hey, actually this guitar sounds really good on cleans. I've played on one of those on a music store when i went to London. Guitar World settings on the amps are really treably. Don't know why. But it sounds good on clean. Really
hey dingle, I have a guitar that has EMGs, and when they we're installed, he put a cheap looking 9v battery for them and it didn't really sound that great. But now after a year, I finally bought a new 9v battery, a very good brand this time, and the tone was absolutely jaw dropping!! Could it be because the quality of the battery matters, or could it be because the earlier battery maybe had already been used a little?
What the hell is bamboo crafts doing be commercialized on here? It's not a guitar. All the commercials that show first I have no buying interest in. Their catagories don't make sense to the page being picked.
@TheChuckNorris1997 it's called auto-flanging (i think) - search for "Zakk Wylde Epiphone Guitars" - there's a lesson with him showing you how to do it there
u just just hammer on and pull off or whatever with ur left hand & with ur right hand u run the blade of ur hand across the strings. does that make since?
@grytoria not really if you been having a idol for many years and he inspired you in many way, and you can affoirt buying a guitar like this of hes signature, then ofc you buy it !
come on guys......stop tha guitar thing.....of course anyone would only think of the word _guitar_ if he had this one onto his hands....and the next think to cross your mind would be where the amp cable....
@heavymedlarruti666 well, according to Dave, the Dean signature is very similar to the model he played with Jackson, but it's a heavier instrument so it sustains better, and you can pretty much match the tone off of any classic Megadeth album with either instrument. You'd probably save money with Jackson, but it really is all up to what you prefer playing, so check em both out.
@troper151 No dude, they're "Shark's Tooth" inlays. Look it up on the Dean guitar website. The shark fin inlays are a Jackson design and are different from these. Dumbass.
The guitar is a Dave Mustaine signature because it's the same color of his hair
