That's pretty lame to get cancelled because of a template, especially since this guy doesn't own Fender or anything. This is why ebay is pissing me off more and more everyday. I was watching items and one guys auction of a guitar was taken off because another ebayer claimed his pictures were being used without notification. It's a guitar! Either way the guy's going to go to google or somewhere else if he can't take pictures of his own guitar. -Jamie

Big Ds

Ibanez style guitar, or a V I'd say. As much as I love metal matts designs, I don't think it would look right if you were playing a soft clean sound with a brutalizer, unless your act is entirely based on irony

You don't have to dismantle anything. I'm guessing your guitar is electric and possibly, mid 20th century to current 21st century

Am I to expect a "brown noise" effect?

I heard baking soda is good at keeping teeth white. How long is the warrenty? I WANNA SEE lol

Line 6 Spider II. They are very affordable, and cover all the bases. -Jamie

disastercaster mastercaster fastercaster grandmastercaster whoatemyaster-caster haha

It would be interesting to see the horns as wide as the span of the V. It would probably be unballenced, and awfully ugly, but still worth having a look. -Jamie

It sounds like some of those preview clips from musiciansfriend or something. Theres nothing wrong with nu-metal, its just that every band that I have heard that is nu-metal imo sucks (lyrics) and they cant play. -Jamie

I wish for a lot of things. So get cracking. I expect it all on my desk by the end of this week, or you'll answer to my personal assistant. His picture is displayed as my avatar.

Maybe. Read the lyrics by itself. They aren't that bad. There are better songs out there of course, but, I find that videos tend to throw peoples judgement off. That's why I usually read the lyrics first, then listen to the song, then watch the video. I can't tell how deep zakk wylde has been, since this is the only song I've heard before, but remember, he's a guy who plays on a confederate flag les paul, with a giant beard, and industrial sized chain for a strap. How deep do you want him to be? Do you want to see him cry? lol. -Jamie

lol glad you liked it. The only thing with this song that I have a problem with in terms of audio, is the damn solo. It sounds so out of place and the timeing sounds off. The video is a different story. Lose the angry kids in Darth Sidius' training camp with his lastest apprentice - Goat, and the Shang Tsung "your soul is mine", along with what seems to look like military guards. Also, lose the whole destroy the piano with an axe. Seriously, what does that accomplish? If anyone here is thinking of smashing their piano, please PM me and we'll talk about a possible trade or you can donate it. The kid cliche is tacky, but I think it's a metaphor for something that I just don't want to waste time thinking of. In the meantime, look at my previous post for Zakk Wylde's new dark lord -Jamie

I HAVE BEEN EXPECTING YOU ZAKK WYLDE, MY NEW APPRENTICE!

Email yamaha the model number and the picture. You may need to email them every week to catch their attention, however, they will eventually give you the bluebook value and name. -Jamie

I really dislike it though when people go "stick to your genre". Seriously, look at how many bands have gone out of their genre. What about the later metallica stuff compared to the older? How about Alice Cooper when he did Brutal Planet? Or maybe Ozzy when he did a few slow songs now and then such as Goodbye to Romance. I don't know about you, but Ozzy sometimes sounds like a wailing bird. What about the Beatles when they finally stoped that God awful pop music like "I wanna hold your hand"? Now, I could point out everything I disliked about the video and song, but I think we're all missing the point in which Zakk was making, which is it's a tribute song/video to Dimebag Darrell. The song doesn't have to be good, or a hit, or anything. It can bomb on the charts and it won't matter. Yes it has its corny parts in it, but seriously, just let it be. Don't make me sing that song now lol . Not everything has to be metal because he plays metal, and I think it handicaps any artist that isn't willing to step out of their boundaries a bit. This doesn't mean Zakk should put a cowboy hat on and sing country music, but it's nice to see artists put down the wailing solos and hammer tapping and doing something different, especially when it fits the right mood. -Jamie

Speaking of people who are famous and piss off guitar stores Paul Reed Smith apparently came into one of the local guitar stores in Toronto and started an argument with the store because he disliked how the store was "presenting" his guitars. By presenting, I mean, hanging them up, how high they were, etc. At least that's what one of the workers there told me. -Jamie

Really? I heard that Pavoratti eats pasta before he sings. I can't stand opera singing to be honest. The closest to it that I can stand is maybe Tarja Turunen from Nightwish. I was watching this show a month ago hosted by Sir Tony Robinson on the History network talking about the worst jobs ever in history. One of them in the victorian ages (I think it was then) was being a male opera alto singer or something like that. They had one recording of it, and man was it ever annoying (because it's not part of our era of music). Apparently to get the job, they had to at a young age have a circumcision, and everyday for 10 years practice, practice, practice, and they didn't live long compared to the average man I believe. For the bagpipes, get earplugs. A few pipers I know don't use them, they've been playing for 15+ years, and they seem to not have a problem, but still, when you have an instrument that was heard on a battlefield with 1000s of guns going off, I'm sure it'll do wonders to your ears. I haven't heard the bagpipes as being stressful or harmful to any other body part or anything like that. Half the pipers I know at highland games do a practise run, then do the opening act (2 songs), then get drunk, then do the closing act. Maybe it's the booze that helps. Good ol' Grandpas cough medicine. Not sure if this is true, but I heard that the majority of the bagpipe players in world war 2 (maybe even ww1 too, I forget), were shot in the back. So careful bluespresence! Keep your enemies close but your friends even closer -Jamie

I've seen them, but haven't tried them. I'm going to the music store tomorrow, so we'll see. I hear from others that they are good for paper weights. -Jamie

I can't believe he made it on fox news with that.

Wait until he leaves you feedback. If it's good, then you won't have to leave him a negative feedback. ebay can be very frusterating. I really hate it when people list items, and they don't describe it as new or old, and the only description they give is from the retail site. LAME -Jamie

Make sure the other guitarist (if there is one) knows the solo, in case of a broken string. -Jamie

It's like ink and printers. It costs about 100 bucks for a new ink carteridge, when you can get a new printer for the exact same kind. I am hearing mixed things about cordless drills. I hear that they just aren't worth the money when it comes to the battery, and with power and all. I don't know crap about tools so it's all hearsay. I can tell you that my Grandfathers black and decker drill still works, and he's had it since the late 50s-early 60s. lol -Jamie

Yeah. Looks like a copy to me. I looked on google images, musiciansfriend and fender and couldn't find any pictures or anything for that matter. If the retail price is 300, it's not an American made, but maybe a mexican made. If it was mexican made it would say so on the headstock.

Bookmark this when looking into bagpipes later on. http://scotwebstore.com/browse.html?category=403:view=0 They are apparently the biggest Scottish store in the world, so I doubt they're offering crap quality lol. -Jamie
