Authenticating? The head stock and inlays are not the same as the one in the 80's. how could it be authentic if something is different? Approving maybe.

TJMonster

"I worked directly with Vinnie to produce the most accurate prototype copies of the late eighties guitars that he used during the Vinnie Vincent Invasion years"
Ummmm the inlays and headstock look NOTHING like the guitars from the 80s. So accurate wouldn't be the word of choice here. But whatever.

TJMonster

That's funny.

TJMonster

Damian, did you ever ask for a refund as my wife did? When we did he sent us a short and scathing response saying that all sales are final and that we were not entitled to any refund. He emphasized all the updates that he had provided but ignored the fact that after over a year he was incapable of ...

TJMonster

TJ....I wouldn't even consider making guitars in his name. Fuck him! There is only one real choice punters have anyway, & that is a Monster...No one can afford a $9000 guitar that has questionable builders like Palecki backing it.. And that $500 that you would give him is better spent on your botto...

TJMonster

I'm ready to take on your blessing Vinnie. But I will tell you, I won't go for any more than $500 royalty per neck through guitar and $100 per bolt on. Any more than that you will be scaring away sales. What's better, selling 8 guitars for $4000 or 1? 8 guitars will be seen a lot more than one. Plus...

HA, who wrote that? Flat out ripping on paul. lol

Hello Doug!

Shramiac,,,You Fucken Man Man! That awesome,,,you have kept going with it.

TJ offered to be the "official luthier" a number of times!

You are CORRECT sir! Very publicly on the old board.
I'd only offer him $200 now. Just because I don't think I want to deal with him at this point.

TJMonster

Maybe he got really fat and doesn't want to be in public that way.

TJMonster

Kev, you might want to put a shirt on for this.

TJMonster

That's probably the pedal he uses when recording. Very popular pedal.

TJMonster

Exactly. Those guitars should have been 110% perfect. Lose some sleep for a couple days prior the the show if you must to get them fully finished , and then get them properly wetsanded and buffed. TJ , if you were premiering a guitar for the world to see at the annual biggest muscial instrument sho...

TJMonster

I will also add a free mullet wig with every purchase.

TJMonster

Tom did say there was work left on them.

TJMonster

The tempature is keeping me from painting. It's gotta be around 25 or higher for the furnace to keep up with the exhaust fan. Sunday is looking good though.

TJMonster

I'd just like to say I hate it.....

TJMonster

I'm working on a Gundam guitar to try and sell in japan. I want a guitar on every continent!

TJMonster

Why not? It's not hard to do. Another reason would be to keep people from buying them and scalping them back.
Monster cable did the same thing.

TJMonster

Down wind, I bet you could hit a golf ball a mile! See ya on the other side of the storm. We got a hell of a blizzard coming in tomorrow.

TJMonster

Probably just making sure they have all the domains so if you type one in, it will take you to the main site.

TJMonster

My friend cort is selling this.

Again, the comcast is no good! I'm boycotting them.

Just incase anyone is interested, I can offer a bolt on with a licensed Floyd, gfs pick up, mighty mite neck for $750. Body will be made of either alder or poplar, depending on what they have at the lumber yard. I can only offer this for the next month. I need to see how long it takes for me to bui...

TJMonster

Then you have people like satchel who can mimic their tone and style. That's what I'm after with my playing. I don't find it to be copying, I see it as having more colors to paint with.

TJMonster

They have cosmic chrome now which is basically a spray on mirror. $60 for 4 ounces of it.

TJMonster

Oh, that's easy to figure out, Tom is probably like me and takes the grand to get the ball rolling. The 4k goes straight to vin. Simple.

TJMonster

My deposit is non refundable right now because it purchases the bulk matterials to build the thing. Wood, inlays, router bit, masks, sandpaper, paints and parts. Refunds leave me buying the stuff. Which I can't afford to buy myself one right now. But, im also a really small shop currently and my dep...

TJMonster

Upload attachment maybe? Couldn't hurt to try.

TJMonster

I remember something about the difficulty. Didn't that cracked mirror top take 2 years?

Rick would want a meal not a snack!!!!!

I'm not all white.....Besides, I'd rather just make the guitar.

TJMonster

I was able to mimic it quite well with a governor pedal. Distortion on like 3 over my crunch channel on my Hughes and kettner.

I think it's more the Washburn than the pickups....

EMPLOYEE DISCOUNT?!?!? lol

TJMonster

Well Rick, I hope your right. I wonder if I can put my app in if they are gonna be in full production? VV and Tom wouldn't have to worry about unauthorized version cause I would be working for them. The only reason I made the first guitar was because no one would make me one.

TJMonster

No, they weren't but, you can see that anything you stick with, it will grow. Carvin was called junk and rip offs and everything. But they stuck with it and improved where they could and as best they could. Now they are a global company. V, judging from his history and we all know men, the older we ...

TJMonster

Dino, it doesn't even have to be an import. Look at carvin. But if you wanna make a lot of money on guitars, you can't sell just a few. Our economy isn't working that way. Carvin has a great model, low cost, high quality guitars that are easy to customize. Carvin makes between 6000 and 8000 guitars ...

TJMonster

It looks like to me that he doesn't even care about the music anymore.

TJMonster

OOPS, let me edit this: t would never work because its obvious that vinnie wants too much money in royalties. He doesn't understand selling a volume of guitars to make your money is better than sell a few for a higher price. There are probably at least 1000 people in the world that would buy a impor...

Quite sad........He's giving up way to soon. No one even got their tax returns yet.
