The Vinnie Vincent Forum - Where Freedom Rocks!

I've just listened to the first invasion album this morning, and now I think V'solos are not sped up at all...
It would be great to try the gear he had at that time, or something approaching it. Too bad Vinnie doesnt promote some VV pedal instead of shirts!

tukoztukoz

... but he doesn't play like him

tukoztukoz

That guitar player really looks like Vinnie!

I've been interested in Vinnie again for 4 years, and I missed all what happened with him since the end of the eighties... Too bad the old board has been put down by Vinnie. I would have liked to read those pages which are all gone by now. There are still some old threads talking about Vinnie, which...

The black/cream Seymour Duncan looks kind of motley. I wonder where it comes from. Black pick-ups look better, even though less vinnie-ish...

tukoztukoz

One black (bridge) and one black/cream (neck), just like Vinnie's ? No cosmetic aging for me.

Great work! It was really nice to see the making of this guitar! Thanks!

tukoztukoz

Things about Vinnie are so quiet these days/weeks. How long will it last? Is it the last period? What do you think?

tukoztukoz

Did Vinnie inspire Michael ?

tukoztukoz

!!!! I thought it was a parody!

Better than their football team engagement!

tukoztukoz

Peter and Paul's voices are well done, Gene's is ok (sounds like his "when you wish upon a star" voice. But I cannot recognize Ace's voice. Maybe they tried to do Tommy's?

tukoztukoz

I think he sped up his solos AND rythm guitars not for speed - he didn't need it because he was very fast as we all know- , but to get an agressive, sharp, clear and nervous sound you'll never get without speeding up. That's what I noticed years ago with a four track or an eight track (fostex).

I think she bought Vinnie's boots

Listen, you all Vinnieologists, here's the answer!
Looking at the cover of the first Invasion record I got last week on vinyl, I noticed those little white characters, which I never did before. I think it makes Hashimoto's work very interesting. I'd like to have a T-shirt with those and the V

tukoztukoz

Nice one. Is it VV or Ace inspired?
I wonder what the inside of the guitar looks like. Maybe it's stranger than my Ultrash VVV, which is partly made of aluminium, too...

tukoztukoz

Thanks a lot for this, the Stanley/Child songs were the ones I prefered in the eighties... Great!

tukoztukoz

Very funny!

This may help :

tukoztukoz

Hashimoto!

tukoztukoz

No, no Panda express spots...

But this could explain the presence of the white guy on fire at the end of the Boyz gonna rock video.

tukoztukoz

Wrong
Was it Mars he wanted to invade ?

Here's a clue : this image is Vinnie related.

If someone had shown me this a week ago, I wouldn't have known the answer. Maybe in 1986 I could have found, but not after...

tukoztukoz

Warmer, warmer...

tukoztukoz

No - or maybe?

I'll dedicate one whole listening of " Speedball jam" to the one who'll give the right answer...

Strange idea for an Ace signature guitar.
Gibson should propose some W-AF-40 instead of this. Copying Washburn would be innovative.

What´s this? Can you guess ?

"GET IT NOW!" It = the ASG VVV? Someone has got it for 2000$ at Julien's! Same question as for the other guitars : who is the happy/Lucky buyer? If that guitar would have been on sale for 2000 $ at some local shop, I'm sure I would have bought it : no complications, no shipping costs. I thought the ...

I feel sorry about this. Is it possible to erase that link?

I get Google alerts when new video comes out on Vinnie this one is pretty cool[/quote] I'm thinking about doing a cover of this song with my Ultrash VVV guitar... There are a lot of covers on Youtube. I don't think I'll follow Shane's advices... [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dC6HxRJ1_C0[/y...

Abracadabra! Vinnie got a magician kit for his last birthday

There's also something from Jem and the Holograms'guitar design...

I like Irish people, they should sell AF-40 guitars more often!

I wouldn't spend too much money for this kind of guitar. I paid 300 US $ for the Rudy Sarzo bass, that's a nice price I think.

Maybe one day in a fleamarket I'll find one AF40, with a cracked-mirror Iceman for 100$?!!!

tukoztukoz

Thanks for the info, I've just seen a pic of one of those rare G70K. Great! I just drove a hundred miles this afternoon to go and get this instrument. I'm really happy with it : japanese design/shape, really poppy to me... What I like about this design is that nobody thinks about redoing it today : ...

Look, I've found Ace´s AF-40 cousin!

Great story! I feel some regrets : I could have gone to Zurich, not too far away from where I live (150-200 km). On the pics, it didn't seem too crowdy, I hope the price wasn't too high for the meet and greet...
Just a few days before, AC DC played at the same place. Well...

I've just seen this on Genebaby's photobucket (don't know how I came there... Lots of pictures I had never seen. Thanks, Genebaby!). I don't think Vinnie played any concert with that guitar at the time...

there was that pic, too :

Julien's Auction : Who did buy the AZG, RR, Carvin and Charvel? Where are they?

Lucky buyer, be nice, show us some pics and tell us about those guitars!!!!

tukoztukoz

Did Jackson give a few B-stock or C-stock RR guitars for the Boyz are gonna rock video in 86? That would explain why there's no number on the fretboard.

tukoztukoz

Good job!
Judging by the frets, this guitar doesn't seem to be played a lot. Is is correct?

tukoztukoz

Did he really play that LP?

tukoztukoz

Seemed to be a great concert.
This pic is kind of weird : first I thought Jake had a new instrument, sort of a grey sitar that makes you want to get your buns signed by the artist...

tukoztukoz

I know he had a strat and a Les Paul before Kiss, but is this his LesPaul for real?

As Spacewig posted pics of his metaltech video, I noticed the Jackson VVV on the back cover. This guitar didn't appear on the video, if I remember it right. Do you think REH publications still have movie cuts that didn't appear on the final video? Where could all that material be? jacksonvvv metalte...

You got the best seats for that concert!

WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH VINNIE TODAY?

tukoztukoz

I checked the video too. The RR/fake VVV has a pink headstock.

tukoztukoz

If it's pink resprayed headstocks, then who did the job? It seems to be well done, Vinnie couldn't do that by himself.

I'd say those pink headstocks have never been resprayed. Maybe Jackson offered those to Vinnie during VVI days?

tukoztukoz

Vinnie like to sell his guitars to Hard Rock Cafes... I think he bought ten or twenty RR1 in the nineties and sold them occasionally to get some cash...
