RIGHT ABOUT THE PICTURE, BUT STEVE VAI DIDN'T PICK AN IBBY BEFORE THE LATE 1980s!

BEAUTIFUL GEETAR, DUDE.

PERSONALLY I OPTED FOR A MONKEY GRIP-EQUIPPED LOCH NESS 7-STRING UNIVERSE OR AN 8-STRING MULTIVERSE (SINCE STEVE FOOLED AROUND A SWIRLED ONE RECENTLY)

Love arctic white and vintage sunburst.

Now, as to Smokin Frets' comment concerning Jimi Hendrix....... :shock:

I'm almost the same way. I really like SRV's versions of some Jimi songs. Look, Jimi was revolutionary as to creating sounds from a guitar, but let's face it, a lot of his stuff was other people's stuff and there was a lot of crap too. Had he not died at an early age, I'm not so sure he would be labled what he is. A lot of it was just good selling and they sold Jimi well. Even Jimi said Rory Gallagher was a better guitarist and most people don't know who Rory is. I do believe he was a good guitarist and he did change a lot as in what you can do with a guitar, but I feel his really good songs are limited in number.

Definitely! I fully agree.

There's other good guitarists in the world whom I don't like either. :wink:
It's a matter of taste, not lack of appreciation.

Smokin Frets...I got your back on this too! I Always thought Hendrix was a little over rated. Revolutionary with a guitar yes, but a bit sloppy quite a bit of the time as a player IMHO. Had he lived, lets be honest, he would have had albums that were probably flops...no one goes 40+ years with a couple that people don't love. Look at Clapton, he has had a couple that I was not enamered with, but I don't think you can grow as an artist without taking a few chances.

I have always like his songwriting which I think in many ways was better than his guitar playing. The cat wrote some fantastic songs, many of which I enjoyed playing over the years. But sometimes, he gets put on a pedastal where everything he ever did is the best and that just isn't true.

And getting back to the regular programming...I would have to say, my favorite color of all time has got to be 2 color sunburst. Leo got it so perfect right from the start!

That picture really makes me want a Jem777. For the sake of trying to play new things stylistically, not douchebaggery 8)

Love them pyramid inlays!
