sparquelito Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Interesting. I have read a lot of interviews with Dave Mustaine over the years, but have rarely seen him on film like that. Seems like a nice guy. A nice guy trying to put his grandkids thru college. 😛  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In November 2019, Mustaine sold off much of his gear, including several Dean prototype signature models that he had used over the years. Two months ago, he confirmed that he was going separate ways with Dean after spending 13 years with the company Edited February 24, 2021 by Sgt.

Pinch Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Maybe a V more like a regular V but with a slimmer neck? And the signature on the TRC is nice for Dave - if he ever forgets his name, he need just look at his guitar - but will others want it? But good for him. Great player who redefined metal guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NighthawkChris Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Megadeth is awesome I don’t even think about comparing to Metallica. Although Megadeth isn’t that great live - Dave’s vocals are sort of cringe when in the flesh. I’ve gotten used to them on albums though and have no issues really there. Metallica does a better show but again they have f’n Lars in the band whom I absolutely think is overrated AF. I dig the new Vs and personally like the green V. I think there’s a Kramer one too that wasn’t in the video and I like that one better than the Gibsons. I miss my old Focus... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve seen Metallica and I’ve seen Megadeth.  I thought the show Megadeth put on was much better. And I’ll take Dave’s vocals over James’ vocals any day. And every drummer that MD has had has been better than Lars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NighthawkChris Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 (edited) @brad1, that’s cool man your ears aren’t mine. I just have this awful memory of Dave doing the most tone deaf outro of Peace Sells last time I saw them live in Detroit and each time I listen to that song I laugh haha! All that aside, MD f’n blows Metallica out the water. Their riffs are levels above Metallica. I love MD. Maybe not the most hardcore fan, but I have quite a bit of their albums going way back. Put it this way, I can listen to MD all day whereas Metallica I can’t listen to anymore. MD can get my blood flowing whereas Metallica... meh... And Peace Sells is a great song on a great album. The conjuring is one of my faves with my last words. A half hour of pure metal. Loved hearing wake up dead live too. F’n love that song! Yeah MD is a great band and F Metallica for being sellouts. They can take their load and shove it up their (Lars’) a$$. I wouldn’t even Napster that s*** back in the day haha!

01GT eibach Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 I really like Mustaine and the 1990s Megadeth albums. I have never owned a Gibson "V" before because (for me) you can't sit and play it (most of the time I stand when I play, but not always). But if I ever was on the fence to get a "V" this one would likely be it (see pic). I don't know the contract details (obviously), but this seems like a very smart move by Gibson to infuse Mustaine-line guitars into Gibson/Epi/Kramer and the acoustics.

NighthawkChris Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 @01GT eibach I am starting to get a bug for a V. They aren’t too bad to play sitting but take a bit of getting used to. I agree his sig V looks pretty nice in the pic you shared. I like all of them I’ve seen thus far TBH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
