Happy birthday Steve!

Thank you for the music and for the inspiration on so many levels

Not at all. Talent is a developable thing. Like I said - those dudes could play Yngwie in a month. But could they create something that sounded like anything but Yngwie. They may have been able to if they had tried to develope it but I have my doubts. You noodled around learning solos, I bet you hav...

I got into Extreme when I saw the Mutha video in 89. It did remind me of VH, but then everybody that came out around that time was somewhat influenced by Eddie. But Nuno took it to a whole new level. I have yet to hear anything he's done that I didn't like.

I studied with an amazing teacher when I was a teenager. One day I was getting really pissed off because all these other guys taking lessons from him were playing Malsteen in a month and I wasn't.

Get something with the double single single combo and you should be able to capture that sound. Try a bunch out and go with whatever feels comfortable and sounds the way you want.

Go with a Washburn. Great necks, great sound, sturdy guitars.

The problem I have is that when I loosen the locking nut on my RG to tune, the whole thing comes up so that it isn't in nuetral. My old Floyd never did that so I would LOVE some advice on how to stop it from happening.....
