Dimebag Darrel

dimebag is a really one of the best guitarist with his own syle and the way he entertains everybody http://www.arthurspools.com/

Good technical skill, but he started the era of fat guitarists. This is not a good thing. And also, he furthered the "Speed, more Speed, and only Speed" movement, which is slowly eroding metal guitar. Yes, it sounds cool when you go fast, but the goal of a solo is not to fit in as many notes as physically possible.

Dimebag--RIP--we will all see you in this river

Awesome guitarist and great musician. sad we had to loose him.

As far as heavy music goes, Few guitarists can compete with Darrel Abbott's crunchy and heavy guitar riffs. Athough Dime didn't play much lead guitar, His rythms were guaranteed to send hundreds of bodies in motion when he played live. In late 2004, Darrel was shot and killed by a mentally ill ex-marine.

Ive heard a shit load of pantera and being a guitarists myself i can tell you dimebag is probably the most underrated guitarist ever. when you've heard every single one of his riffs and solos, you will probably agree hes easily one of if not the greatest guitarist of all time

good guitarists but slightly over rated. most metal guitarists appeal to teeny boppers who know very little about style, technique, & subtly. also,he was a bit heavy handed and repetitive.

pretty good styling...definate loss

He was fully capable of playing the kind of music he was trying to play. I never really paid attention to him until his bizarre and tragic murder. He was a first rate metal guitarist and sold himself short with his cheesy nickname. I wish I hadn't made all of those cheap jokes about his demise.

dime was great, but he didn't branch out much

Guitar GOD!!!!!!!!

Seen Pantera twice..and worth every penny!!

RIP DIMEBAG DARRELL ABBOTT

good at making noise

THE GREATEST GUITAR PLAYER EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bodybag Darrel

how the heck he gets up on the list?

great and .....dead

best bass player ever in good guy i got to meet him in a after party

Sickest guitarist ever. His music will live on

Dimebag carried the torch of heavy metal guitar into the 90's. He awakened a new generation to aggressive music and laid the foundation on which metalcore is built. At the same time he slipped enough melody in to make the music widely appealing.

one of best all time guitarists --i slighlty biased as i loved pantera and still listen to there music religously excellent all around musician played live great and had more licks and tricks than most playingtoday --he took up where eddie van halen left off only with a harder style--rest in piece --greatly missed

close

Dimebag is best

I love Pantera

The first time I heard Walk I was amazed at the guitar tone, but I never really listen to Pantera.

PANTERA put death metal on the map.

Oh HELL YEAH

he kicks ass

BADASS GUITARIST

dime your the fucking man!!!!!!!!!!

fuck yea the best

definatly the most dynamic guitarist of all time R.I.P DIME

dimebag is the greatest guitarist of all time.

Didn't impress me...

he is o.k but i can play almost everything he plays but not as good

not too good

Tragic concerning his death. Dime was however, just another heavy metal guitarist. Many out there that are much more aggressive.

no disrespect he just wasnt that good.

One of the best metal guitarists of our era...

terrible name. 100 dollar fine for shit name.

Fine at what he did.

omg omg omg omg dimebag is the greatest of all time no question ever end of!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dimebag was an extremely talented player, and anybody that saw him play live knows what I'm talking about.

Im not so impress by Dimebag fidding on his own, I find he kinda loses the touch after a while in his solo if he wouldn't solo ruthlessly so much. Ruthlessy=being without pity, having or showing, anyone who dares to speak out.

I cant stand screamy crap like pantera but there guitar is awesome cuz of this guy and any man who can make walk seem good even thru the mindless crap is amazing

Thanks for everything, dude RIP.
