Mine seems to be a different model - there's a pic in my profile. They're saying now that I can't bring a pickguard to the VIP experience. Ugh, bastards. Thanks anyway.

That is good if it's tube. I got lucky. When I was in the market, I found a music store clerk who needed the cash and let his mid '70s 50 watt half stack go for $350. He locked the store up and we went to his house. Cash and carry of course, but that amp kicked ass. I used to run it in stereo with my Carvin 100 watt through my Boss ME-5. Tough set up, but it was worth it. I was the only guitartist, but it sounded like there was two of us because the sounds were so different.

You`re probably checking out a solid state model,they can be had fairly cheap. A true tube amp will set you back a couple of mortgages!!
Look at Krank,they have two mini combo`s that can be had in half stack configurations,their newest one has an expanded EQ section,but they are still not cheap!!

I have had the older Boss OD-1 and the DS-1 in the past and loved them. And thanks to a very generous fellow board member here,I have the DS-1 again. Been a Boss guy for a long time,not that I think they are superior,but they are readily available and consistently good. I use my DS-1 thru my son`s Fender G-Dec Jr. amp ,and combined with the internal overdrive in the 80`s British mode,it`s a great tone for all era`s of metal.

I used Carvin exclusively back in '87-'88. They were an awsome company with great equipment and an even greater amount of integrity and commitment to quality. I loved their speaker cabinets. At the time, they were the only affordable option for fully enclosed cabs with big speakers ( 4x12 ). The bass knock out of those were incredible.

Didn`t you post a pic of your stuff once,I seem to recall seeing one and you mentioned how great the V3 is far Vintage Priest!
I love Carvin`s stuff,had a little bad luck with an order from them a while back,but wasn`t their fault,more of a UPS thing.
I know the vintage 30`s are a good speaker,I had the Carvin British series in my Marshall cabs,put them in in the late 90`s. My favorite Celestion is a discontinued model... the Cloth Edge Sidewinders, used another guys cabs once and he had these in there ...my god I have never heard a speaker breathe like that,man it was thick with a truly amazing top end.
The Legacy has a very glassy clean tone,good for old Van Halen stuff.

I first noticed them on some BC Rich Warlocks at Guitar Center a few months back. I looked at it,but had no desire to play it. Just looked to damn weird!! I ask a salesmen about it,and that~s where I got the info I posted on it. maybe,there is something to these things,dunno,but I don`t think I`ll be trying one anytime soon,unless KK offers me a chance when they come to Dallas!! Yea,as if!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You mean the new white one, he had alot of it retooled by his guitar tech because He did not the way it was. Beautiful guitar, but Vol control on back? Just Stupid design. He fixed it. As for the rest, your too tech for me, talk about engines and I know what you speak of, guitars, not so much. But I sure he had in redesigned to fit his preferences.

Regarding the new Double ball end strings that KK is using on his new White V.
Very cool,but there are things that can go wrong with those. If a string stretches to far,it must be replaced,rather than re-tuned,as there is not enough play left in the string to stretch it out properly. The tuners on the tremelo bridge are just like on a reguler tremelo,they`re fine tuners and do not have enough room for a complete retune.Now ,that being said,they are particularly reliable,but just not perfect. But if KK has faith in them,who am I to question our Metal God!!

| Yes, that was pre-Kramer for Vivian. Kramer was negotiating with them at the time the SOTN video was shot. |

She did a radio interview with a morning show here last year. She was so wasted she could barely talk, but swore vehemetly that she was clean and sober. Of course she was busted for posession of cocaine three months later...

Sykes did all the writing and studio work, then Coverdale fired everyone from the band and hired the guys in the video. I can't remember the names of the bassist or drummer from the recording sessions, though.
