Rosewood! Only Vinnie's and Mark Ferarri's look like rosewood. All the others look darker.

it looks rosewood, if not a lighter ebony. its lighter than most of the other necks. Rosewood sounds good with maple body/neck in my opinion as maple maybe a little too cold sounding with ebony for rhythm playing., but i could be talking b.s. and amps pickups can also sort that out.
i used to like ebony boards but now i think maple boards have more sustain, which i didn't think that a few years back. i still think birch is a better wood than maple even though it isnt used anymore.

The All Hell guitar is the same one as in the Lick it Up promo and the tour book. The bridge pickup was changed to an EMG between the two videos if you look closely.

I know. Sad, eh.

That Jackson endorser clusterf**k pic guitar that VV has is odd, since it looks just like the repainted gold one, but has the normal White logo, rather than the spaghetti gold version.

I only just noticed the biggy that Sandi said here! :oops: :oops:

This gives ammo to the theory that the black dot neck was the white one re-sprayed??!?!?!?!?! Maybe.........

Or this "second" pink guitar became the Hard Rock guitar?

We really don't know shit........C'mon Vinnie! Give your bros and sisters a hint PLEASE! :wink:

The guitar in the Jackson ad looks like the AHBL video guitar.

I think the LIU and All Hells Rhoads had regular sharkies! Can't see on my phone to check though.

100% NOT the LIU & All Hell's video guitar! :)

Is it just the gold re-spray, re-sprayed again or a new one (at the time)?

I think a new one!

CORRECT ! :D

I have always loved how the pink paint of the Jackson pops in the AHBL video.
