Dean Dimebag Darrell ML Series

Dean does a very cool thing for their artist series. They make multiple guitars for the same artist. Slight little tweaks, or different painted graphics, but it’s still super cool.

To start off a review of their Dimebag series, the legendary shredder for heavy metal group Pantera, we will take a look at the ML.

• Limited Run only 100 to be produced worldwide of the Far Beyond Driven ML
• Flame Maple Top
• Mahogany Body
• 24-3/4″ Scale
• 1-11/16″ Nut
• Set Mahogany V Neck

You should notice that the Blackbolt doesn’t have the set neck and a Basswood top and body.

• Basswood Top/Body

The Camo Floyd ML is also a bolt-on maple C neck.

The rest of the guitars have a variation of the specs listed above.

I think my favorite is the Dimebonics, the Wanted, or the Far Beyond Driven because of it’s beautiful natural top.
