Ever heard of "Too much of a good thing?"

That's EVH stuff here. I have never had a disdain for any of the gear until recently. His death ramped it up even further. I cannot stand to see another post about EVH gear or anything at all related to it.

I don't even read news articles about any of the stuff anymore because it is just too saturated here lol.

I am glad the community loves the guy, definitely well deserved in all aspects there, but I have had more than enough of the EVH posts.

I know I will get a lot of flak for this but it is what it is.

Edit: I like the Wolfgang guitars and 5150 amps and all fo that, ti is mostly the constrant talk about what gear he used to get whatever tone. "Did he use this cable", "did he wipe his ass with this type of paper?" LOL I kid, I kid....

Even if you had all of his stuff, you aren't going to sound like him. Sorry. Even if you did, no one really cares because you aren't him. If you use the sound to make your own music or sound somehow....Bingo.

And here I was just going to post a NGD thread about my newly acquired 2014 flame top burnt cherry burst. I'll do you a favor, save you the grief, and just post it here. (y)

I mean, welcome to 2008 thanks for joining us.
 
Most definately.
That’s exactly what happened to Bam Margera.
Being lifer skateboarder, I’ve skated with Bam and hung out with him a few times back in the days at Skatepark Of Tamps.
What most do not know is Bam was the best,
most creative dude in skateboarding.
And back then he didn’t even drink booze and was a PRICK to anybody boozin’ & blazin’…
Imagine MTV giving you $250,000 an episode for Reality TV video’s you get to create,
FULL creative control to go out snd
blow shit up, create & perform fun stunts that are hilarious, with no limits barred etc.

-Truely getting paid fat to have fun.

He had his cake and ate it for far too long.
There’s also musicians that are. “Too good “.

I have this amazing ability to not click on anything I don't have an interest in so "too much of a good thing" doesn't really exist

Yeah, I still can see the 1000s of Thread titles under the sections when I am seeking something actually interesting to read or look at.
 
I totally get where the OP is coming from which is why my tonal chase has been more oriented around nailing those Cherone vocal inflections. Good luck trying to nail that with a variac and a Marshall suckah.

Hey, I actually have to click the link to see the guitar, which I did. Absolutely beautiful. I have grown to like the look of those guitars. My OP isn't really about that, I added an edit that may clear it up a bit.

Rumor has it Eddie was briefly endorsed by Northern exclusively. Right before the first studio session he wasn't feeling well and had a giant plop the size of Hulk Hogan's forearm.

Nevertheless, pink Northern was to believed to be the secret ingredient. While all these nerds are wondering about what choke or what cable they never even considered what really mattered.

The EVH worship and obsession is strange, weird, fascinating, annoying and fun all rolled into one for me. I still think a sub forum or as someone else suggested a stickied EVH thread would be wonderful

then everyone will want a subforum for their favorite guitarists. it will never end.

besides, only Allan Holdsworth deserves his own subforum. IMO. :poke:

I'm sure it will be too quiet tho'
 
This is kind of a cry-baby post. Just don't click on EVH stuff..

PS: yes, the choke stuff is ridiculous.... but it's entertaining
