Steve left a lasting imprint on the music scene and has been a positive ambassador for guitar. I don't see what else there is to worry about.
His tone and playing on Vince Neil's "Exposed" alone is enough for me to call him one of the "good guys", let alone all the other stuff. He has a varied...
I have largely been playing D'Addario for my playing journey. I sometimes will buy EB, GHS, Fender, I tried a brand called Knucklehead? once (Once as in 10 or 20 sets in bulk), I believe a set of 8s from Rotosound.
D'Addario gives me what I want without any screwing around. I play 9-42 in all...
Are you looking to sell, or just put some imaginary number out there? "I have an amp that Rig-Talk says is worth $1,000,000. But I only paid $250 for it" :p
We should put Megadeth and Metallica into the coliseum to battle each other, but then unleash some cryptic beasts on the "winner" to just get rid of them both.
Maybe Manowar?
I feel like it probably has a few factors. I recall in the manual for the Metaltronix M1000 I used to have I believe it talked about pulling two tubes and the impedance adjustment. (Something like running the amp at 8 ohms with two tubes was equivalent to running with 4 at 16)
I was also...
The name recognition is a significant factor, and Rockitt is simply not well known. There was a Rockitt Plexi sitting for sale here for $1500 CANADIAN (so like 1100 US?) for a long time and it didn't move for that price.
Friedman moves a lot of product, advertises like crazy, etc. But one...
The only American gear I have is a Musikraft neck and KNE body. I have another body that I believe may be USA, but can’t confirm, and I’ve also pretty much destroyed it so who cares.
The rest of my guitars are Canadian and Japanese. Amp is Canadian, incoming amp is also Canadian
I think the last guitar I had come in was a Yngwie Strat, and it’s gone.
I expect I should have a new amp here in the next couple weeks, as I was told late May/early June, and here we are.
A friend of mine is also trying to convince me that these cheapo Westcreek guitars are the best thing in...
I'm not even aware of 10 guitar players I care enough about to make a list that long. :D
The best guitar player I'm aware of, for my money is Greg Koch. Though I haven't listened to much of his records, etc as his primary style isn't really my taste.
But if I were to go by my favourite/biggest...
Dang! Those first two Rough Cutt albums really hold up to my ears compared to their contemporaries, both the songs and production.
I got the impression that they were big into boosting Marshalls with Furmans along with modded Marshalls
