He has been known to borrow or rent Marshall cabs way back in the day but never used a Marshall head live.
FWIW - Marshalls...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qX-r3_hn4U
Facelift is right on the money with his original reply, those are the exact pieces of gear and settings he used. I had a book called Riffer Madness that has a bunch of things written by Dime about his sound and he mentions how he specifically uses the 6 band eq (as Facelift said) and stresses how it must be that particular blue one.
Although it's all in the hands, Dime would sound good thru any amp, check how it buzzes and then needs a good kick to work again lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0h2ToYJ7pQE
Don't forget to tune down a quarter step too eh! 15 cents if I'm not mistaken...
I also read somewhere that it was Vinny who actually got Dime "his sound" by messing around plugging all sorts of pedals/gear together in different order and f*n with the EQ and all...Read that once.
