  1. I have never listened to Black Rose. I need to. I am a huge fan of Live and Dangerous.
  2. I love lots of his music, but not all of it. I love how he geeks over gear just like us. I have a friend who is a close friend of his and he swears Joe is a regular and very cool, kind dude. All about guitars and amps. Just like us. I’d love to meet him and jam. His love for all my heroes is so admirable. He always gives props to those who paved the way before, be it Page, Beck, Muddy, or the Wolf. I need to see him live. I also admire that he owns his music, recording process, career, the entire business. He built it himself. He made himself a hugely successful businessman. What I don’t like is that he markets too much crap. Blues fly-swatters, watering cans, blues bathrobes, etc. And it seems like he releases a new album or DVD monthly…but all that is part of his business empire that I admire above. Overall, I think our guitar world is much better with him in it.
  3. Yowza Chris! I knew about the Whitford guitar but not Perry’s!!!
  4. Congrats @LucSulla! A rare and beautiful Tally there. How do the Double Ds sound in comparison to a standard Telecaster set of pickups?
  5. “Buy from Bubs” is a thing and has been for years…lol… he has furnished lots of our gear rooms…
  6. YESYESYES I have said this for years! Angus is a hard blues player in a rock format. He loved the Cream. He would excel in a blues power trio .
  7. Tyler is and has always been a fine rock harmonica player. His style is rather unique, what with the hambone he is. I dig it.
  8. I just told @0054, @Travis and @bubs_42 the same thing in a text. His best singing since Back in Black.
  9. The Gravelin Shlabotnik sisters in my Ultimate are the best buckers I have ever played. Get a set.
  10. I use them occasionally to work out a solo, but I would play to a drumbeat to ensure good timing. I can see their value for practice.
  11. Damn @Travis….an Aztec Special sounds incredible.
  12. My Korina Artist HB is the neck I judge all others by. So easy to play and an overall incredible guitar. $850 is ridiculous.
  13. Gary Moore reminds me of Jeff Beck and EVH…he makes it sound effortless. It’s like he could do whatever he wanted on the instrument. And he played with intense passion. There is a version of him playing Red House with a red Strat that is stupid great. He just burns. I love all his blues albums. His version of Thirty Days on his Close As You Get album is him just ripping on a Tele. One of my guitar heroes for sure. When I was gigging, I loved to play Still Got the Blues so I could pretend I was him, lol.
  14. That Junior is so cool! So many great guitars for sale on the board now.
