Howdy guitar freaks :-)

Post by Ronz »

Hi, Kiss fan for far too long from Scotland. Collecting all things Kiss, especially guitars.
Was lucky enough to see Vinnie twice in 83 at Edinburgh and Glasgow :-)

Anyway, just saying hello.

You lucky, lucky bugger!

Have fun here!

Yeah, Vinnie was awesome. I was an impressionable 14 year old. Helix were supporting. Always remember Kiss being bang on form, playing everything a smidge too fast tho.
Now I just have too many Kiss guitars,lol.

Yes, Kiss did play the songs quicker back then.

You saw a fantastic line up.

I sold so many at the wrong time. In 2001 the most i was offered for my robin guitars was $150 each and that was even a hard sell. I really regret selling stuff so cheaply.

I wish rick had gotten everything. I had a Korina machete (but painted) made with a medley neck / reverse headstock. I still have never seen a machete without the split headstock they came with.
I remember ordering it on phone and they were trying to persuade me not to do it. They also wanted me to send exact color sample in the post.
I thought the robin medley neck was the best feeling neck ever.
