Steve Haynie

If Gibson could get a piece of mahogany that wide today to make another doubleneck like that they would probably want three times the price of that guitar in the ad.

What is a crystal lattice?

Well... typically bad jazz guitar tone... uhhh... no.

People sometimes ask for things they are not going to buy. When given a choice between the old standard or a modified version, people split. Some have to be in their safe zone of what they grew up with. Some are actual players with needs that are met by the updated features, but that means a smaller number of consumers will buy the improved guitar. To start a new line of instruments takes a bit of psychological manipulation. Jol Danzig said that bass players were asked for input when he was designing the Impact Bass. Those are really nice basses, but they did not catch on like they should have.

How much just to smell the case opening up?

Jon Roth might be available since Winger is winding down.

I wonder if they do a cover of this gem from the past.

Hey! Those Lowe's brand riding lawnmowers and chainsaws scream quality because they say "Lowe's" on them!

That was Barry Bailey's Les Paul.

There are multiple tracks, so that pick scrape had to be on one of them. There is no way his palm made that sound.

What is it with all these newer guys playing without a pick?

I got mine!

I gotta gripe. The Orphan Works Act passed by Congress was opposed by groups like The Graphic Artists Guild. It was a license to steal for book and magazine publishers because there was no way to police what was considered a "reasonable search" for a copyright owner.

Will his coffin be finished with nitrocellulose lacquer or really thick polyurethane?

Who has one of those Steve Stevens models with the yellow/pink/orange zig zag finish? Those look like Easter eggs.

The original band was great at the time. My Skynyrd collection started in 1977 or 1978 when I was in seventh grade, and those cassettes were played all through high school. Seeing present day Lynyrd Skynyrd ain't the same. During a concert there are doubts about it really being a Lynyrd Skynyrd show. Seeing the Artimus Pyle Band late last year gave me a similar feeling, but there were Artimus and Barry Lee Harwood on stage, two people with a genuine connection to the original band.

Start playing them.

For years I joked that there were a million guys who could play just like Eddie Van Halen, but they could not play anything new until Van Halen put out another album.

Oh, what an insult!!!

So the new Rush drummer can play John Rutsey's part. OK.
