Re: Very nice Vinnie Vincent autograph decal on eBay.

DaBonadono, do you dig the tone of that guitar? I've never had my hands on one, but I would suppose with the neck through body it's got some nice natural sustain.

Re: VV' s musical and technical studies and talk

This is an interesting thread. Thanks for starting it. I'm a musician and I frankly don't give two shits about his personal life. I'm only interested in HOW he did it. Vinnie as musician to me is filled with contradictions. Ironically, it's his shredding that I usually don't care for (and I'm a fan ...

Re: How did Vinnie develop his chops?

I think a good expo question would be to ask how the title ya know I'm pretty shot came about. I will venture a guess. It was at the end of a long day of recording, Vinnie had a gut string guitar in his hands and was plucking on it while discussing the day's work, the band suggested to Vinnie that ...

How did Vinnie develop his chops?

I'm a bit new to VV fandom so not sure if I've missed it, but I haven't seen any articles regarding Vinnie's development as a guitarist. Most are post KISS. I'm interested in: 1) What lessons/styles he studied as a kid. 2) Did he learn to read music? 3)Vocal lessons? 4) Did he practice with a metron...

This is awesome news. I KNEW Vinnie could NOT stop playing guitar. I KNEW IT! It's in his blood. I've been listening to the Guitars From Hell recordings and I really feel Vinnie was breaking new ground in his music -- that he was creating a recognizable and unique "Vinny Vincent" sound.

Re: VV Interview - 1996 Magazine

Loved it. Wonder why the book never came out. Vinny, there has got to be bank to be made on a KISS book. And, there must be a way to put it out without getting sued. I've never bought anything from KISS before (I'm really just a Vinny fan) I'd buy that in second.

To be clear, "new" music was never mentioned. Derek just said an announcement "about music" was coming.
