Dimebag Darrell’s Washburn Dime 3 “Snakeskin”

Brand: Washburn
Model: Dime 3

This is another among the many Washburn guitars that Dime started using in the mid to late 90s. This guitar, in particular, featured a body wrapped in real Python skin, topped off with a high gloss finish. It was one of the few guitars that weren’t equipped with a Floyd Rose tremolo. Instead, it was fitted with a TP-6 style wraparound bridge.

Dime mostly used it just when playing “Sandblasted Skin” live with Pantera.

The guitar was also featured in Ola Englands video on YouTube, where he visited DIme’s house and got to see some of his guitars.
