Even having owned one, I'd also be interested in hearing something that other people think is the sound that draws them in. All the things that I was at one point was told were SLO, wound up being something else.
The Peavey Vandeberg is 24 3/4", along with the Kramer Nightswan, Kramer Proaxe, all "Fusion" models from J/C. Unfortunately, besides the J/C Fusion models, all the rest of these are starting to really climb in price. Though the new Nightswans are fine guitars, at a reasonable price.
When I happened to have an EVH 212 along with a Splawn Quickrod, that setup was instant ACDC. Nice "shape" to the sound for lack of a better word.
It ain't polite, but thats fine by me.
The X100B is the "old old" head Vai used. I had one of the reissues and got good sounds out of it. I got rid of it because when you would turn it on for the first time each day it would do a deafening hiss and I got sick of that.
If the right deal popped up for an original Legacy I would give...
I played the single hum a few weeks ago and thought it was really good. The pickup while not the greatest of all time, is serviceable and sounded pretty much like I remember my old J90C sounding. I’m content with having that instead of a JB/DD
I was curious how much of that sort of work was actually done in the shop. Its nice to see that they are building them from the ground up.
They will probably be in the running for my next "real" guitar
That's what came in V1 of my UK67. I'll be honest, I wound up pulling it, and I don't even remember what I replaced it with. Maybe an old "Perfect Connection" tube I had out of a Metaltronix M1000 I had many years ago.
This is so true, and frankly why I don't worry about the opinions of people on forums. Generally their mouths are writing cheques that their asses can't cash.
