SOURCE: i recently purchased a dean "dime-razorback"
here is a wiring diagram for another washburn. its not gonna be exactly like your set-up, but it should be pretty close. its really not that hard to rewire a guitar, i did it when i was like 12 years old, and the worst thing i did- wired the volume pot backwards. the diagram im seeing is differrent from any guitar ive prevously worked on, but it should be pretty accurate for a washburn.

those dimabag darryl guitars, lke the bronze ones, are really cheaply made.

If the wiring is correct on the guitar, try plugging it in to a different amp. If you still don't get any sound, the problem may be a faulty volume or tone potentiometer (or pot. The knob, for simpler words). These are fairly easy to replace if you know how to solder. If not, then watch this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLfXXRfRIzY
You can get the pots from Musician's Friend, Guitar Center, or any music store that carries guitar parts.
If that doesn't fix it, then the problem is in your pickups. You can get "aftermarket" pickups through the above mentioned dealers, and you're not restricted to the original pickups.
What you replace them with will affect your tone, so do some research before settling on a set of pickups. Active pickups will give you more gain (great for nu-metal and hi-gain applications) and have lower output noise, but they require batteries. Passive pickups have no need for batteries, but tend to produce slightly more noise and hum.
Hopefully, it's the pots. That will be the cheaper fix, since they run about $2-$4USD each. Pickups can range from $100-$500USD a set.
Hope that helps!

SOURCE: i need a wiring diagram
Go to either Fender, Gibson, or another guitar company, and look up wiring diagrams. Anything with 2 humbuckers and a switch is wired essentially the same.
