The Dirty Dream! Sounds like a bad pun, but this is DH Peligro's signature guitar. When we asked Dirty what he wanted, he said he wanted a Explorer-type guitar that knew how to scream, so that's what we gave him!
A set-neck, full solid Mahogany body and a reversed 6 Dream angled headstock is the start of the Dirty Dream. The body starts out as a soild piece of 1.75" mahogany that is carved into the traditional Explorer shape. To give it a little bit of it's own flare, there is a bit of a tail-fin contour, along with a belly cut and forearm relief. Tie this into the solid mahogany neck that is a 21 jumbo fret, 25.5" scale wonder with a Rosewood fingerboard, and you can tell that the sustain and resonance is going to be a beast.

Routed right into the body is a pair of Seymour Duncan Active Blackouts that really let the Dirty come alive. It uses a Tune-O-Matic bridge and is a string through body to really help increase the sustain. It features a traditional 3 way toggle switch to switch from Neck/Both/Bridge positions and has a mini kill-switch to enable those quick metal stutters.
Locking Tuners and Speed Knobs round out the features on the Dirty to make this one of the best Explorer-type guitars you will ever play.
The Dirty is only available in Dirty's Signature Gold Glitter.
