call the phone number NOW!!!!

i am going to be in LA around the time of NAMM so maybe at the show. I think the cold shoulder will be directed towards all of us. I know Slayer will be there and maybe Drew

go to this site and type in Vinnie Vincent or TM1 on show directory http://www.namm.org/thenammshow/2011/directory

This is certainly interesting. What is TM1 though? Sounds like TJ Monster guitars?

The website listed is certainly not up and running so I hope the email listed goes somewhere.

Has anybody rung the number? If I was at home I'd give it a try.

doublev · Post by **doublev** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 11:52 am

wow. tm1 does sound like tj monster.. very strange. I will contact Tom now and see if we get a response.

Post by **Genebaby** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 11:54 am

TM1 could be something Tom has setup, T for Tom etc.

This is getting exciting!!!!

doublev · Post by **doublev** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 11:58 am

wow, its so close to tj monster though,, confusing a little but either way its exciting. I hope to see it in the flesh if they let me in the booth. I think I may have to not let it be known.

Can someone contact TJ to see if its him or not. I am guessing it is Tom however.

doublev · Post by **doublev** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 12:02 pm

i get it now.. most likely tm1 tis tom without the 'o'

poserboy71 · Post by **poserboy71** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 12:10 pm

I called the number and left a message. It sounded like a cell phone .

doublev · Post by **doublev** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 12:11 pm

maybe you just called vinnie direct?

VVV · Post by **VVV** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 12:13 pm

That link isn't working on my end.

Well, I have to say this to Tom and Vinnie. I apologize for having the little bit of doubt that I had.

CONGRATULATIONS on coming through with this.

I'm EXCITED and PROUD.

Post by **Genebaby** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 12:17 pm

I got the link to work. I sent an email to the address. So far it hasn't bounced, which is a good sign as I was thinking it might bounce pretty quick.

Anyone who goes to NAMM, we need pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!

doublev · Post by **doublev** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 12:17 pm

drew.. which link isn't working. the namm one is, but not the website. looks like VV will be running the website and not tom as its with network solutions.

Yes, as much as I am dissapointed with VV, this is great news and I hope it works out for them. It will be an eye opener for sure.

VVV · Post by **VVV** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 12:17 pm

Does this mean that Vinnie will be there? It would sense, right? There has to be a formal announcement coming from their end I would think?

doublev · Post by **doublev** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 12:18 pm

drew.. are you going to spread the word??

doublev · Post by **doublev** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 12:20 pm

rick,, is there a voice on the voice mail of the number you called??

poserboy71 · Post by **poserboy71** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 12:23 pm

Just a stock female answering machine-type voice.

Not unless I can confirm he will be there.

Nice catch on the NAMM site Dino BTW

doublev · Post by **doublev** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 12:29 pm

i don't think he will be there for some reason, but the guitar for sure (it seems). If he is there its going to be a real surprise.

doublev · Post by **doublev** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 12:31 pm

just chance, but thanks drew

vv said he was going to do namm so I figured I should keep checking. It only comes up in the directory and nowhere else. I wonder if Ed Roman and Bobby Rock will pop over to the booth.. lol

doublev · Post by **doublev** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 12:33 pm

he planned a compettion based on who could play most like Vinnie and a few other things as far as I remember. not sure if that is going to happen now or not.

I doubt he would be there too. I'll send my backplate just in case though

Do you guys have your passes for the NAMM show? If not ,how do you plan on getting in?

Dino, I posted this over at Kissfaq.

I'M BOUNCING OFF OF THE MOTHERFUCKING WALLS. I'M SO MOTHERFUCKING EXCITED ABOUT THIS MOTHERFUCKING GUITAR AND THAT VINNIE MOTHERFUCKING VINCENT IS FINALLY GOING TO MAKE HIS PRESENCE KNOWN.

YAY!!!!

poserboy71 · Post by **poserboy71** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 1:01 pm

TM1 is the holding company that is owned by Vinnie through one of his relatives.
It seems that Vinnie is releasing this by himself.

Please be respectful guys. Be supportive.Be positive.

poserboy71 · Post by **poserboy71** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 1:08 pm

Hall E is in the basement of NAMM. It consists of the smaller booths, which in this case , makes perfect sense. ONE guitar= small booth.

I wonder if Vinnie had the double-neck made?

Rick,,,don't get to excited...the fall from this height will be too great, you might no survive this one.

poserboy71 · Post by **poserboy71** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 3:32 pm

I'll be O.K.-Honetly ,I do have a grip.

What's funny is ,if I do go to NAMM,I'm more excited to run into Dino,Uncle Kev,and Drew . The guitar is almost an excuse to see them. Who knows who Vinnie will have behind the table at the show ?

VVV · Post by **VVV** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 3:38 pm

I had access to the tickets but couldn't make it. I could have gone to The Grove. The show....

Disneyland...

Sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!

metatron · Post by **metatron** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 3:42 pm

Don't get me wrong bro. I'm excited too, but I've been disappointed too many times when it comes to the person in question. Lots of promises, lots of dreams & then nothin'. NAMM would be awesome on matter what. Double awesome if 'He' shows up...I suppose we will see what happens. I really do hope it happens, but I won't be buying a $8500 axe...that's 4 sure.

poserboy71 · Post by **poserboy71** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 4:08 pm

I don't believe any of us could afford the SUPREME VV model. Maybe he adjusted the pricing? Maybe a budget model is in the works? We really don't know what Vinnie has been up to these last few months.

I doubt he will make his appearance OFFICIAL.

Which leaves me to wonder if Dino, Kev, me , or anyone else from here introduced themself to him, would he play dumb?

If I walked up to him with the picture of us together from 22 years ago,what would his reaction be?

If someone is sitting next to the TM1 booth all day and you can tell they aren't working, it just might be ME.

poserboy71 · Post by **poserboy71** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 4:13 pm

Dannii, most of us here have felt that disappointment and I understand being cautious. If my hopes get up too high this time and it doesn't happen, I could fall on old excuses and talk away the pain BUT if I'm flying high and it happens ,I will soar even higher into the realms of EUPHORIA !!!

poserboy71 · Post by **poserboy71** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 4:15 pm

What I am saying is that I'm gonna gamble and take a chance to reach that natural high. Won't you join me in a nice cup of Kool-Aid?

Post by **Genebaby** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 6:17 pm

It is pretty cool news. It's a step forward and a sign of good things to come. We need a report and pics of the booth etc for those lucky ones that are going.

The market will determine if the price is justified or not.

doublev · Post by **doublev** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 11:08 pm

interesting vinnie's father-in-law is the owner of the company. i wonder if that number is his.

Post by **Streetbeat** » Mon Dec 27, 2010 11:46 pm

Cool stuff ,TM1 came public
Cool , im happy and proud , i don't see why he keep being so silent

doublev · Post by **doublev** » Tue Dec 28, 2010 12:39 am

I don't think they came public.. just namm listed them. I suspect in two weeks the website will be live. Vinnie would be very smart to have someone demo the guitar on his YouTube channel. Maybe mike weeks or even better himself.

Post by **Streetbeat** » Tue Dec 28, 2010 12:52 am

Mike has his own plans , i dont think he will be there
but would be cool

VVV · Post by **VVV** » Tue Dec 28, 2010 5:57 am

Has anyone spoken to someone at the other end of that phone number??

poserboy71 · Post by **poserboy71** » Tue Dec 28, 2010 6:01 am

I don't think that phone will be answered until NAMM.

VVV · Post by **VVV** » Tue Dec 28, 2010 6:08 am

I breathed into it really heavy and said I was........."ready"

poserboy71 · Post by **poserboy71** » Tue Dec 28, 2010 6:13 am

Drew, Would you mind dialing my phone number and talking me through one?

doublev · Post by **doublev** » Tue Dec 28, 2010 9:41 am

The strange thing is namm is not open to the public. You go there to sell to a distributor, music store or to another guitar company or get an spokes person on board.. not to sell direct to the public by internet. unless that is what they are planning they would have been much smarter to spend money on going to kiss expos or advertising the pants off of it online or in guitAR magazines. They may get a little exposure from reviews, but they could get that with advertising. I am pretty sure they are only going to sell direct.
I maybe missing something however. I am excited for it but just a little confused.
