Dave Mustaine number 1 DM010 full specs

[damon1]

I remember reading where Dave referred to the fixed Kahler bridge as a tone sucker, he said it killed it.

Dave's said a lot of things - he and Marty used those bridges for around 15 years though.

Hi,
I'm new to the forums from Japan.

I don't know about DM010 but I have KV Pro (Japan made Dave Mustaine signature) and it have thin fret wire.

Fret spec as follows. (From catarog)
Fret wire: Rockwell C6/Brinell 171
Fret size: .110x.106x.039x.037

Hope this helps.

Thanks a lot man

He used smack for a long time too, and that wasn't good either!

Dave's specs are basically a KV2 with a Kahler. Ive got a KV1 from around the 1998 time frame. It kicks ass. Mines been re-fretted with jumbo fret wire. I have to say that I prefer the thinner fret wire when used with a fixed bridge. It makes more sense.

You can still get the Kahler fixed bridges. They aren't exactly the same (material wise), but close enough.

Still don't understand why there is no KV with string though body.

And yes I have returned from the grave Muuuuuuuuuuuhhahahhahaha

They do - the KV2T is a string thru KV. Albeit with different inlays and headstock, and no body bevels...

Good point LOL
