Dean Razorback V

The Razorback V is an electric guitar designed by Dimebag Darrell in 2004 shortly before his death. It is a more aggressive looking version of the Dean V, and similar to the Dean Razorback. Corey Beaulieu of Trivium is known for using this guitar[1] It is the more pointy version of the Dean Guitar headstock and the body is an enlarged reversed image of the head. There is also a bass guitar version of the Razorback V shape.[2]

The Razorback V 255 has a longer scale length neck & 24 frets, that extra length is designed to appeal to guitarists that like down-tuned riffing. This model strayed away from Dime's original design. This model is offered in 5 finishes as an import and 6 finish options as a USA model and came with form fitted V hardshell case. These were produced from 2007-2012 and then discontinued but from 2010 to 2012 the only finish option offered was the Explosion Graphic.

Corey Beaulieu

Corey Beaulieu, one of the guitarists in Trivium, was one of the first guitarists to use the Dean Dime Razorback V. He used to use the USA Razorback V Explosion, USA Razorback V Red with Black Bevels, the USA made Razorback V with the Skull graphics, USA Blood Angel V Razorback, and his own signature model, the CBV 1122, a drastic variation on the original design. Corey Beaulieu sported the first ever made red Razorback V. Corey no longer plays Dean. He changed to Jackson Guitars when Matt Heafy moved on to Gibson. He now plays a Jackson V and a Jackson Randy Rhoads V. Matt Heafy plays a Gibson Les Paul Custom.

Notable players
gollark: Inspired by CRUX, another minimalist distribution, Judd Vinet started the Arch Linux project in March 2002. The name was chosen because Vinet liked the word's meaning of "the principal," as in "arch-enemy".
gollark: Arch Linux has comprehensive documentation, which consists of a community wiki known as the ArchWiki.
gollark: Pacman, a package manager written specifically for Arch Linux, is used to install, remove and update software packages. Arch Linux uses a rolling release model, meaning there are no "major releases" of completely new versions of the system; a regular system update is all that is needed to obtain the latest Arch software; the installation images released every month by the Arch team are simply up-to-date snapshots of the main system components.
gollark: Arch Linux is a Linux distribution created for computers with x86-64 processors. Arch Linux adheres to the KISS principle ("Keep It Simple, Stupid"). The project attempts to have minimal distribution-specific changes, and therefore minimal breakage with updates, and be pragmatic over ideological design choices and focus on customizability rather than user-friendliness.
gollark: By the way, I use Arch.
