Nice, those are really great guitars.

I love Nugent and Toby Keith. How was the Toby Keith portion of the show?

Your making my head spin, Peter! Now I gotta look up the ad to see if it was a Schecter or a Guild...I know the ad was with Plunkett from Autograph, and it was the guitar with the cutouts. This is probably very far from the subject of this thread!

You are correct I believe. The Guild Genesis. I have an ad for them from the 80's that I can scan.

Friggin wisenheimer! LOL!!!

Stike, I know this is a concept completely alien to people on this board, but I like music. It only seems unusual because I don't need to validate what I listen to by slamming other stuff, which is more the norm here. You know what I've been listening to lately? Soundtracks (Kenny G, John Williams), Nat King Cole, Henry Mancini....great stuff. I have loads of classical disks and vinyl. I have an equal amount of Opera (lots of old Mario Lanza records). I've seen Pavarotti 3 times, and catch Andre Boccelli every time he comes to Vegas. I also like my Country music, especially Trace Adkins, Keith Urban, Toby Keith.... I like 80's Pop music. I like The Cure. And of course, I gotta have all the metal I can handle. It's my favorite kind of music. I've also been listening to a lot of the Astronauts, The Ventures, and the like lately. Yeah, there's plenty of stuff out there I can't stand, but it's music. It should be positive. It's all good. I don't need to sit around and say "Yeah, I listen to Henry Mancini, but those guys in 'hair band x' really suck" or talk about how many donuts a guy chows down on, just to make myself feel better. That's all lowest common denominator stuff.

No, I'm a big fan. I've seen him many times, and it's always a great show.

I figured it was OK to post it, because I sent you a copy!

Poe, you didn't post the right version of that picture I did of Jack....

That's pretty funny. I've driven out there (Rachel and Alamo, Nevada, and the Little Alien Cafe) many times. It's the most eerie trip you could possibly take...

This is the funniest thread I've read all day!

OK then, I didn't want to have to fly out to Pittsburgh to give Jack CPR!

What happened to Rick's post? It sounded to me like he had a custom Chap built for himself about a year ago. What's the deal?

I think the neck at the factory is the original neck, which was made very thin. IIRC, Hamer made him a replacement neck for that guitar.
