  1. Never got them or Jack's solo stuff either. He does like to dress like a Blackjack dealer.
  2. I saw PJ in Hawaii when I was stationed there. Ten was out and Vs was not released yet. Once Vitalogy came out I was over PJ.
  3. Do you have to have a beard to own one? I'm sure its a well built guitar that sounds great to the guys that like Maple. I still just don't get the need for the massive p/g. You can't tell me that is not robbing that top of its ability to fully vibrate.
  4. I've bought tons of stuff on line, only being able to see pics. If I can't return it, I don't buy it. By from Reverb or a big store that has a return policy.
  5. Really expensive is maybe what I would say. It was a killer axe, maybe too killer. I'll never buy a guitar that expensive again.
  6. I saw the video's of Prison Sex and Sober and dug Tool. Went out and got Undertow. It's more raw then what comes after. Aenima had a bunch carnival sounds it, a guy reading a recipe in German. which sounds like a Third Reich speech and electrical crackles. Hooker With A P-enis was a cool song. Prison Sex from Undertow is not about two dudes in San Quentin getting to on in the shower, its about child sex abuse. It was though it was written from Keenan's perspective about his stepfather, but he said it about about abuse and the cycles and recognizing them and trying to break them. Tool blow now. My son digs them and even he couldn't stand the last album. And yeah I have read about all the math stuff for the chords and stuff and wow you guy deep and your audience is dumb and and don't care.
  7. I think EJ - Yellow Brick Road came out in ‘73. That was a damn good double album.
  8. This was called gaudy by one member. D-41
  9. Wow an L-00 Standard right now is $2799. Only $401 more and you them build you one. If Gibson dragged it behind a car for a half a mile it would be $6500.
  10. Bought lots of stuff from S W. They are a great big box store.
  11. What was the out the door price of the whole guitar?
  12. It's my SS amp for my Fender Jazz Bass. It has a Warmoth neck and Rio Grande Muy Grande pups. I still have the bass and B100. The body is a '95 Fender Am. Std. J Bass. The neck got a nasty warp in it and I needed a f new neck.
  13. Tool are now so pretentious. I haven't liked them since Lateralus.
  14. Does Jeff Beck need psychiatric care. He’s Jeff Beck. Nuff said, why is Depp playing with him?
  15. The red Sharpie mark for the pointers are very nice.
  16. J A had some great songs, but some were just them doing to much LSD and recording. The first one with Signe on vocals in nothing special. Surrealistic Pillow to Volunteers were decent albums, a few stinkers on each album, but mostly solid. The last two J A albums, Bark and Long John Silver were just them clutching at straws. Steppenwolf never did it for me. Love Bowie from Hunky Dory to Scary Monsters. He did do some disco stuff, but it wasn't Bee Gee's disco. B S from the first to the Vol. 4 was stoner nirvana. On Sabbath Bloody Sabbath the amount of blow they were doing was beginning to show. The Doobies were just an FM friendly band with some nice hits. After Takin It To The Streets I lost interest. Michael yawn/sings that song. Its also one of my fav Doobies songs. Love when Tiran Porter pops that bass note.
  17. You could probably afford a real '59 LP, cause he always is. He hasn't gone by Cat since 1977 as he is now Yusuf Islam. Wonder if he misses eating nice breaded pork chop? Tea, Teaser, Catch Bull, and Buddah were all really good albums. I still need to listen to Mona, I don't think I've heard it all the way through. Foreigner was not that good IMHO. After Buddah, I don't have any of his albums.
  18. We all know, even me that all 50 would be sold before they hit the street. We all know the market for this guitar. Cat/Yusuf fans, and the well off collectors that want to impress their friends. Think if Gibson made 150 or 200 or 1000. How many would be sold? Ugly is in the eye of the beholder. I was told my D-41 was gaudy here once. Its not a bad looking guitar, it just doesn't have enough pickguard for me. There is still some area on top not covered by the p/g that could use some.
  19. Run from that fake and do not pass go.
  20. Ian Hunter would be proud.
  21. Funny album cover, but for me its a sub-par Zappa album. My Guitar Wants To Kill Your Mama, Oh No, and Orange County Lumber Truck are the only songs I like on that album. The slide guitar/Little Feat legend Lowell George is on that album.
