Food for thought and on a tangent: I honestly wonder why some people feel so vehemently compelled to defend him. I also wonder if these same people ever stopped to think that if the situation was the inverse, would he defend them at all, let alone as vigorously?

I agree with both of you. I posted the thread to see what people really thought of the guy. I guess now we know...but I will no longer post threads of such ilk because they deteriorate quite rapidly....I didn't want to go into the thread myself...and I started it....my fault....as far as JM goes, his guitar playing is better than mine...for now....... and thats all I have to say about that :shock: :lol: ....ignorant no more........ 8)

Do the cats you guys are naming actually play MIM guitars, or is it just that their "Signature Model" is produced in Mexico to keep the price down?

Here's a PRS example, Alexi Laiho has a PRS SE Signature model. The PRS that he plays is the real deal, not the SE version.

what is the definition of "successful" in this question?

total number of albums ever sold?
most fans?
most models of signature guitar sold?
most magazine appearances?
most groupies?
