Long time No My Guitar video... WELL IT'S BACK BABY!
Hi ola
I didn't know you played guitar. Cool.
epic,
0:47 lol
Been waiting for your new upload video. That's definitely a cool guitar.
Hej Ola! Wow that brought back memories, I was given this exact model as my first endorsement back in 2002. Had 2 of these, but sold them later on. Did some Dream Evil / Firewind albums & tours w/ it up until 2004. Good to see u got one, being the massive Dimebag fan that you are. 👍🏻👍🏻
Gus.
Hey Gus G.! I didn’t realize that your comment where here before, awesome story, keep rocking dude! You’re amazing 🖤
Ola buy a pack of playing cards and use them to hold your bridge up.
They won't scratch the finish and you can dictate the bridge location with the amount of cards used.
Cheap and easy.
Thanks 🤘🏻
I use old business cards from my last position. Same idea, but free.
Wine corks work amazing as well :)
can I use yu-gi-oh cards?
@@nacktheslayer9882 most likely if you have a bunch of spare ones.
From all your "little penis friends". We all love you Ola. 2020 has been a year for everyone yet you continue to deliver quaulty content. Love these in depth instrument videos!
"Not too much depth now!"
4:14 The real reason I started playing guitar
8:18 the camera was like, "hold up Ola, lemme get this nasty ass fretboard up close for you"
I have to say, I actually like the shape of that guitar. It's the binding, finish and other visuals that wreck it for me.
The fact he doesn't cut out all of his mistakes just makes these videos so much better, just listening to everything he has to say is so entertaining.
I can't "deicide" which one is my fav serie: "My Guitar" (my nerdiness speaking) or "Sunday with Ola" (my sunday ritual with coffee).
Habitual ritual
Ritual de lo Habitual
@@ThrushCZX 🤘😀👍
why choose :D
Gay
I first saw Gus G playing this model in old Mystic Prophecy and Dream Evil live clips and thought it looked bloody awesome!
Same here man!
"This is what happens Larry !" Ola, his Dudeness 👍
This is what happens when you find a stranger in the alps!
@@metfan4l I was trying to decide how to represent Walter’s line in a G-Rated manner and there it is
Mondays with Ola, can't wait until Tuesdays with Ola
Oh damn, the guitar in your profile picture yours?
@@swiftuav3617 ya
It’s Tuesday with Ola here in Aus bro!!
🤘🏻🇦🇺🤘🏻
I always thought that, because of Dime's love for EVH, the culprit was a homage to the EVH Shark guitar
It really looks a lot like it, just with a couple of added curves. Although if you ask me the EVH shark was even uglier than this.
@@SteelSkin667 Culprit is a glorious instrument. Such a brute.
Same, definitely made me think in Eddie’s Shark
It's another generic star model, just like his main ML he used to play
I can’t believe you have this. I remember staring at this in musicians friend catalogue.
Those import Floyd Rose bridges, are a challenge.
I read a lot of people hating on this guitar design but I love it.
I like the design, nice twist on a classic.
The Washburn logo that used the Misfit's lettering looked great.
Ola: "There has never been a handle on this [guitar] case."
Black Panther: "Get this man a handle!"
That rubber band trick has changed my life. Thanks Ola!
I always use the backplate from my guitar on my Floyd when changing strings. It won't scratch the body and the plastic is strong enough to hold the pressure.
I like guitar show and tell, I got some old, sweet, American made Washburn’s in my collection, always loved their guitars
Oooof!!! That’s one of those guitars i always wanted when i saw dime play it
Hola Ola,
According to Grady, the weird shape on the bottom of the culprit was supposed to look like a bottle opener 🤘
I just remembered something. The Baker musick on broad street in Gadsden Alabama. One of the owners was blind. He was blind at birth. The dude walked around ìn that shop. Normal like anybody else would. I was fortunate to go on a couple trips to churches to let him tune their piano. The dude had perfect hearing. He tuned a piano even went in and changed strings. I fidnt get to see him c hang strings in the piano. But watching him work was out of this world. Tuning strictly by ear. The guitar is really cool.
3m automotive rubbing compound. works fine by hand for small spot. Plastic is harder to remove scratch than clear coat / paint but it still does the job.
I love the Culprit. Actually my favorite Dime guitar.
i always loved the culprit shape and im so glad theres more content about it on youtube now. thank u ola!
FU tone has a thing called the "Trem Blocker" its padded on the bottom and works amazing for Floyd Rose trems!
used to work in a guitar shop for 4 years. i feel very nostalgic, especially because of the 9v battery licking part
I do the same thing with leaving the ball-ends on, but not from laziness: if like me you don't want to put a new string on every time you break one (and the way I yank on the Floyd to scream those harmonics out, that's quite often!), you put a bunch of wraps around the tuning posts. Leaving the ball-ends on allows them to act like self-locking strings: I can wind that string right out til there's no wraps left on the post and it won't slip out while I trim the other end down and lock it back in the bridge. Then retune and it's done. Point isn't about time saving or laziness, but means I get 3 or 4 string-snaps from each string.
A reverse headstock would be SO dope on that thing!
Thanks for the vid man! They're always super entertaining and high quality.
When I block the bridge on my Floyd's I use the back plate that covers the springs and just wrap a cloth of something around it. Works great.
I freaking love the channel. I purchased a Washburn Steve Stevens guitar back k think it was 1990. Its the black with gold hardware. That guitar was sweet. The pickups was mounted to the body in as team of the ring a n d suspended. The store was Baker music in Gadsden Alabama. They were a Washburn dealer so the guy that owned it knew Dime. In 2004 dime actually mailed the guy a personal guy I tar of his. K think Damage Plan had a show in Atlanta. It was either Atlanta or Birmingham Alabama. I remember the guitar when it got to the shop. Dime was go b no do a meet and greet thing for the store. Things happened and the guitar sat there I k the back. I actually got to play it. That was so cool. You know some of the guitars Dime had like the rebel flag. Dime didnt have the original version. This guy from the shop would have some custom shops done. At NAMM Dime seen them the rebel flag. Dime actually had the second one. The stores long closed now. I remember going in for strings and sometimes not leaving till 3 or 4 am shoot we've had the store covered up many times a lot ous would play after they closed and 9an we'd still be there opening up again. I was so excited to meet Dime. I never got to. It was really cool though hearing the st I ties about Dime and the guitars. There was a few times Dime would trade for things in the shop. I was watching your video. Had to tell about my Washburn and Dime stories. Keep on bending bending those strings. Keep on Kreating that awesome Kontent!
you got a good deal, saw him play the culprit in 1998 in england.
I had two of these and sold them, just stumbled upon a pic and had a blast from the past
Guitar video back on November 23. Best birthday gift ever!!
There's a few Dimebag signature edition guitars at my local guitar store, I drool at them every time.
It has the Vulgar Display of Power tone going on. I also got Obituary vibes when you first started playing it. Very cool.
If Dime were still alive, he would still prove that he can be just as heavy as any 7 string or low tuning metal player all while using 6 strings. The man is a legend in his style.
Ahhh string change with a Big Lebowski reference! Love it!!!
Picked up a Imported(China) 04 Dime Washburn Lightning Bolt a few months ago for 100$. Bought it from some tweaker that painted over the lightning bolts in glow in the dark paint and painted the neck. Wet sanded the whole thing, buff/polish, put in a set of SD Hot Rodded pickups, & rewired everything. Sounds awesome and looks amazing now!
Perfect thing to get home to after work 🤘🏽
9 am drinking coffee and watching this guy. little things that makes life got more sense
Life better got more sense cause shit I'm fucking up
I love those. Gus G used to play one. 🤘
I think Gus G. used to play one of these guitars in Dream Evil times....
He did
Early Firewind too! Before his ESP deal
Yep Fire and the Fury music video
@@DominicAirola Book of heavy metal too
that sound gets me everytime....
I have that guitar! Mine was signed on the pick guard by Dime along with a batch of others at Musician’s Friend before I bought it. I took the mirror guard off and used it as a stencil to make a cream pick guard to put on the guitar and I keep Dime’s sig. safe in a shoe box. I put a Bill & Becky 500XL and also a Tremel-No in it. They don’t keep tuning at all with that bridge. It’s good to see you make a video about it! These guitars got very little attention and it’s a shame!
I love it. Not even halfway through the video and there's already a Lebowski and a Rick Sanchez reference
That grain on the fingerboard looks like pau ferro. Very pretty!
I kinda like it, it's got this charm to it, like no other guitar
I just found a Musicians Friend magazine from 1998 in an old office, and I saw this guitar in it. I never even knew about this guitar.
6:47 props for the Big Lebowski reference
I had one of these a few years ago boy do I miss it dearly
I’d love to see an Evertune equipped Solar setup.
That Dime tone is spot-on
Remember seeing it in the Swedish Fuzz Magazine and thinking it was THE shit.
I own one of these! To be honest I've never truly played it. I just loved the shape of it. My favorite body style is an explorer and this was sort of like a play on it so I snagged it when I saw it.
I had a Culprit. Bought it new from Musicians Friend. The body shape was different and the head stock was different. The body did not have that loopy circle cut out. Was more like an explorer. The finger board was a very nice Indian Rose wood. Wish I still had it.
There's a Dimebag signed red culprit hanging on the wall in my local guitar shop here in Canada - Weird!
Agreed, that is a beautiful fretboard
The culprit is just an edgier take on a Charvel/Jackson Star or ESP Random Star
Never seen one of these before. Neat looking beast sounding guitar tho. And it comes with a built in glory hole?!?! Best idea ever
If solar is gonna make a dimebag "tribute", it should be this shape because there aren't many that look like this
I found that guitar at a little guitar shop in flat rock michigan with a broken headstock...fixed it.. plays awesome
I have been wanting this guitar for years. Nice!
Leaving a like for the Big Lebowski reference
I own one of this guitars. I was looking for something else at a guitar shop in Argentina and they had this model hanging so I asked to play it. I didn't like the shape but as soon as I played that freatboard I had to buy it. It's so confortable! Thaks for this video! There's not much info about this guitar
Ola! I always used a dead 9v battery that was wrapped in a little electrical tape. Just dip the bar a little and put it in there. It does make the bridge sit uneven but as long as you tune up and have your springs adjusted it should go back to mostly original position.
OH MY LORD I FUCKING LOVE THIS GUITAR THIS IS MY DREAM GUITAR!!!!!!!! THAT IS THE GUITAR THE MADE ME FALL IN LOVE WITH GUITARS AND CRAFTSMANSHIP AND LUTHIER DESIGN!!!!👍👍 IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS GUITAR FOR YEARS THAT'S AMAZING!!!!!!
I like to fold a terry polishing cloth on itself a few times to block my floyds. You can wiggle it all the way up by the posts and it makes it really easy to take off all the strings at once
I actually really want one...I think it's great
@4:10 thanks Ola, that's in my brain now. Forever.
I looked for that guitar for 8 years..finally found it in a little shop in Flat Rock Michigan with a broken off headstock.. Paid 300 for it.. I fixed it and cant tell it was ever broken...one of my fav guitars i own
I've heard that a product called Simple Green is also good for cleaning-off all the dirt and spooge from off of a guitar fretboard, it plus an old toothbrush works wonders.
Big bonus points for the big labowski reference.
The only thing I’d change is the headstock. I love everything else about the Culprit
Du kan allt om metal saound jag gillar allt du visa vart skåpet ska stå bästa Ola
I roll up a largish micro-fibre cloth and stuff it under the bridge to hold it up when doing adjustments. If I’m just changing strings, I do it 3 at a time. Bass first, then treble.
You should have told them you were there to "apprehend the Culprit"
So interesting, that even the camera panned down to get a better look at Ola working on the guitar!
🤣🤣🤣
I love the Culprit.. one of the best body designs ever in my opinion
Love watching you play Dime riffs
Yes ! So stoked
Your first Washburn solar signature would be cool for the next my guitar
I had one of these and loved it! It was sweet axe.
My favorite Dime model was the Washburn Stealth with the slime green paint job and yellow lightning bolts. It had the dimebucker in the bridge and a single coil in the neck. Not even sure they ever made one for the public or if it was a one off for dime himself. The snake skin one Washburn gave him on the "3" home video was sweet too!
Little hack for all tremoloscrews in the back: Replace the Phillips-screws with TORX. Problem solved.
My favorite shapes of dime guitars are that in the video and the "concrete", that reversed headstock it's so cool
Jesus Christ, that tone is MASSIVE
Look into a shred neck trem blocker for your Floyd’s. Get one of them and you’re set for any string changes. Got one for mine and it is great.
I love YOUR guitar 🤘
i wanted that guitar when i saw it in the magazines as a kid have the washburn dime 333
Definitely inspired by Eddies cut out explorer! Man I miss both those guys and the master Holdsworth...
«Karate Warrior» OST in the background. Love it.
HEY ola, i know its not like a tutorial series. but you could show us how change the gauge of the strings and setup the guitar, for exemple. going from 0.9 to 0.11 how you set the neck etc etc.
If you have it meguire’s automotive mirror polish. Works great on acrylic and poly. For buffing by hand. Regular wax for guitar works but can build up on it.
bring back this guitar in later videos! Dimebag guitars best guitars!
MY GUITAR has become my favourite Ola series.
You're quickly growing into one of my favorite overall YT channels! Keep up the enthusiastic work and we'll keep enthusiastically watching! Much love!
