The Vinnie Vincent Forum - Where Freedom Rocks!

Yes I know that even Dana (who would have the least feelings for Vinnie out of all of them) said that the tracks weren't sped up.
I'd love to know why the guitars were tuned to F Standard?

"This is Zakk Wylde frummmungfdfihsthvbxhaxcuyhavbixcvknmmumble mummble tgsvggvjhasjxc"! :P Slow down Zakk, don't be nervous! :P :P :P God I'd wish he'd shower, get rid of the putrid beard and then work on his vibrato that gets worse as he gets older! Yes! I went there!!!!!! Wylde stuff is made by S...

shramiac

Well...Mustaine fired him. Pretty lame considering it was two consenting adults and the footage was released without his knowledge/consent. If she was under age, throw the book at him but as it seems she wasn't, two ladies may now be in a world of trouble. Mustaine says the relationship with Ellefso...

Last chance to do it right. I hope they sound great.

3,500x14=49k vs VV bundle is 50k
3,500x20=70k vs VV bundle is 75k
3,500x34=119k vs VV bundle is 125k

Not that anyone is purchasing, but his pricing is redundant.

:shock: Twitter warned me, and I was too curious... :shock: Sigh! Nobody listens to me! :( :P :P :P People are obviously having fun with song titles too. I noticed that the videos had the footage of the young woman in question blacked out so you couldn't see her getting off at the same time. Maybe ...

Totally above board as the woman involved said she was never underage and was the one to instigate it but, not a great look for him or the band. I guess her "friend" might be in some trouble for posting the videos. And no doubt Dave is in some trouble with his wife! You can look search for the links...

I started on drums first...should never have quit and taken up guitar.

And no! You're not getting my VVV.

chrisbarnett wrote: ↑Tue Apr 20, 2021 2:24 am Great story. Love the Ozzy impersonations too. Hopefully Dana will go into some VVI and Slaughter in the follow up

True that!

Hopefully he can address the bugbear that lingers over the first VVI album?

Were the guitars tuned to F standard or were the tracks sped up?

shramiac

Man I love red Paiste logos on the 2002 cymbal range....cool pic.

shramiac

Not too shabby!

shramiac

Ooops! Wasn't quite what I said it was...memory huh?! He actually used to cross his left leg over his right so the guitar was really up high, thus forcing his shoulder up. My dumbo brain only remembered that the guitar would have been over on his right side rather thn being centred like if in classi...

shramiac

Shame. Guessing the tracks would be AOR style songs from the late 70's?

Had to laugh in the comments section that there were 2 spam comments for "earn $$$$", out of only 6 comments LMAO

Out spam!!!

Any luck with the sale? Just about two years already!

shramiac

Yeah, she is insane, she did an Extreme song that Nuno thought was great. What do you mean about the right and left leg thing? When I play sitting down the guitar is on my right leg? Vai said the reason for the rotator cuff surgery was due to playing off his right knee. He said his shoulder was alw...

shramiac

He used the silver/purple Jackson, the Washburn and the Carvin in that video. You can see the Washburn neck cutout at the 2:43 and 3:12 mark.

shramiac

Nailed it!

She's gonna end up needing shoulder surgery like Vai did by playing with the guitar on her right leg rather than over her left, classical style.

shramiac

Sweet!

shramiac

Cool! You even got the super flaky gold correct! Only thing is that it has a "Stephen's extended cutaway" neck joint, not a standard neck through. Still ery pretty. As far as we know, Vinnie still has it. When Randy was managing Vinnie, I enquired about it via a middle man but my offer of $US4000 wa...

shramiac

True that. Have fun if you get to go.

shramiac

Can't say if this body is still there as Roman's site has a lot of old posts still up (RIP Ed) but, if it still is and you don't mind the "harpoon" headstock and the body binding, this might be for you?

shramiac

Cool!

The gold flake on the Washburn is so....mmmmmmmm sweeeeet! The V inlays set it off nicely too. Shame the Laney/Washburn deal went south before the ASG tour. Would have been nice to see it on tour, rather than just in the That Time of Year video! I guess we wouldn't have the Carvin if it hadn't?

shramiac

The old BC Rich Ironbird! Paul's red one in the Tears are Falling video looked nicer but still... bleh.

shramiac

There will be two made. The prototypes that have already been made.

Good luck but, no one is interested. Insane!

shramiac

I think Uncle Kev is having a laugh with us!

shramiac

On that pic where VV and his friend appear, the guitars look like cardboard guitars. lol That'd be the binding causing that illusion I'd guess. Yeah, Vic! Not a fan of the logo either. It's a bit too dark and not great colours but, they are prototypes so that can be changed. It looks like a genuine...

shramiac

Looks like Vinnie is going to release a tribute guitar of the red Guitarman guitar he built while still living & working in NY. This guitar was used on the CoTN tour and featured both maple & rosewood fingerboard fitted necks. This is the guitar many thought was a Charvel due to the similar logo but...

That explains why I hear a Cadd9/E chord when you post!

I've read the Takeuchi (or TRS) Floyds are actually pretty good! They were made in Japan to a high quality. They have an old style screw-in arm though. Replace with a Schaller or a push-in arm and they'd be great!

shramiac

(As)Soul Station!

shramiac

Cool!

shramiac

Does it have a phenolic fretboard like my G8-V superstrat? I have a white version with the Washburn branded Floyd Rose III....the FR sux ass btw!

Prayers & best wishes to Vinnie and all his family.

I've got the same Destroyer II as well. Got it at a pawn store for $200($US150) with the case, back in the early 90's. It's as beat up as all hell but I got it in honour of Adrian Smith who used one as his main guitar on the Number of the Beast and Peace of Mind tours. The bridge P/U squealed like h...

shramiac

What a fucktard!

Should have still had a couple of million in the bank in 1993 but blew it all on drink and drugs.

Again, what a fucktard.

shramiac

The Kenny Chesney rumours.

shramiac

If he can nail the solo in Do You Wanna make Love...oh boy! Yummy.

shramiac

Yeah, I agree with you tuko. Tape and picks.

But well spotted anyway, aero.

shramiac

An EMG 81.

Since it was active (battery powered), the passive neck pickup would have been disconnected.

shramiac

Found the old thread in the buy and sell section. It’s still in Oz in New South Wales.

Probably on the north coast somewhere...

shramiac

True that!

Top mount sucks ass anyway!

shramiac

Wait, what, you were on holiday? As in, a time in your life when you weren't working?....I don't beleive it! Yes it's true! It was February 2012. Myself and one of my guys were flown down to watch India play Sri Lanka in a One day (cricket) match by one of the companies we buy from. Flights, accomm...

shramiac

So first one or two gold layers , and then pink! Pattaya pink! :lol: :lol: :lol: Either would be cool. Maybe buy an EMG Marty Friedman bridge P/U too. His models are passive so you could probably wire it up so the neck P/U still worked and it would look more authentic. Of course, there's that Floyd...

shramiac

Cool bananas! I thought it may have been the same guitar as well. Though that case situation is curious? Interesting that Mark got #1. Wish I'd bought one back in 2012 from a former member here who had put it up on ebay in Australia. It ended up going for about $2500 if I remember correctly? The US ...
