He is rock-n-roll royalty and has forgotten more about guitar then most will ever know. He is very cool personable guy and is jumping in next week to RT out of friendship to me, so you guys enjoy him, ask questions, he loves mentoring. He has been a big part of my life and music career.

Very cool. He's helped create some of my favorite high gain tones...Skid Rows Slave to the Grind and Ozzy's No More Tears :rock:
 
That is awesome. Master of Puppets is probably the greatest metal album of all time and most on that list are killer as well. Can't wait to read his posts. Thanks for making this happen.
 
Michael is a super cool guy, and I still go back read all the questions he answered about recording Extreme's record and having to deal with Nuno. :D
 
Sweet! I have seen some of his posts regarding getting a guitar tone... amazing!

I would love to read this thread, do you have a link?
 
So cool! Michael is great people and a wealth of knowledge. He gave an amazing clinic at the Nashville amp and showcased the techniques of how he gets all those great guitar sounds.
