Washburn Dime Slime DB2000 USA Custom Shop Bass Guitar signed & artist owned by GWAR bassist Beefcake! This is the most insane bass we have ever come across! You can see it clearly in the official GWAR – “Immortal Corrupter” music video. It was featured on the GearGods website the last time we had it available for sale! Now it's back! We got it from the most prolific Dimebag Darrell guitar collector in the world… absolutely insane collection in The Netherlands! He stated: ” This Custom Shop model only saw a handful produced with several going to Dimebag Darrell himself. He in turn gifted them to fellow musicians where 1 went to Twiggy Ramirez of Marilyn Manson band and another 1 to bass player Beefcake of the band Gwar. This is the guitar that was gifted to Beefcake who made the guitar available at an auction."

GWAR have two Grammy nominations and a long history with Pantera as well as most of the huge legends in the metal community. The band has a tribute song to Dime and performed at the official tribute show to his brother Vinnie Paul with the biggest names in metal. Lamb of God was opening for the band back in the day while this bass was being used on stage! In a crazy coincidence, I actually saw this bass used live on stage the first time I ever saw GWAR! There are various pictures of it including on the KNAC radio website. The bass is huge and is frankly the coolest thing we’ve ever seen.
 
This is definitely an instrument for a rock & metal museum, a Hard Rock Cafe, a major studio, a known artist or a serious collector! The bass would make an amazing display piece, but would also make any artist stand out sonically in the studio and visibly on the stage!
