Fender Jazzmaster (Shell Pink) Fender Johnny Marr Jaguar (Olympic White) Fender Richie Kotzen Telecaster (Sunburst) Gretsch G5191 (Shell Pink) Ibanez S540 (1990, Desert Yellow) Squier JV Series Stratocaster (Lake Placid Blue Respray) Faith Ju...

I’ve owned many guitars over the years. Fender, Gibson, Jackson, Ibanez, Gretsch, PRS, EB Musicman and Suhr. And I’ve played lots of different brands too. But I’ve never owned a guitar that was as well built as the Suhr Modern I had. I wish I’d never have traded it in. It was effortless to play, sou...

I sold a Universe- but I don't regret selling it- I'll get another one I owned a 20th anniversary JEM for an hour I cash advanced on my credit card- I couldn't afford it- and flipped it an hour later for like $2000 more than what I paid But for like 45 min and the time it took me to get a haircut i...

Forgive this post but wanted to share with others to hopefully move past this... Lately I’ve been thinking about guitars I used to own and how I got rid of them. I’d love them back but can’t afford it and don’t have any guitars to sell. I used to own a Jem7V, Jem77FP and a UV777P. But my style of pl...

Hi all Just wondered if anyone has any info regarding the Japanese lady on the front of Steve's Real Illusions:Reflections album..Does she represent anything ? How does she fit in with the story of the album ? I'm just curious as I love the cover and was considering getting a tattoo of it at some po...

Cool, I've got the same thing...Just need to get mine framed but having trouble finding one to fit. I might get one custom made.

Anyone have any ideas when the new album is gunna come out ? I'm sure it's going to blow us all away...Strange how Steve said he's doing a 2011 World Tour but yet there is still no sign of the album or any titles, dates, track names floating about. You'd think it'd be a bit late now to release the a...

So i've managed to save some money and i've sold some of my gear to get this money. I live in the UK and I am after a Jem. I am after any jem at a good price except for a 7v (as I have one) I have a maximum of £1100 and would be most interested in a PBK, DY, VDY, SK, VSK, VSBL, FP, BFP. But as I sai...

My perfect Vai band for 2011 would be... Billy Sheehan - Bass Dave Weiner - Guitar Mike Keneally - Keys Mike Portnoy - Drums/Percussion Alex Depue - Violin (Only for the acoustic set) Ann Marie Calhoun - Violin (Only for the acoustic set) Devin Townsend - Guest spot on vocals to perform Touching Ton...

Its only what I heard from a relative

I suppose the rest of you have also noticed that Steve's guitar 'EVO' has been absent from everything he has done recently. Has he chose to retire her or what? Its just every show, guitar magazine or interview you see or hear about EVO is never there and its another white jem named FLO III. Even the...

Well it was only a rumour. But I have heard that the new album will be Fire Garden Part 2. Whether it will be very similar to Fire Garden in some way or it is actually a second part to the first Fire Garden album.

I recently previewed the new vai tunes track and was rather dissapointed when I found out it is the same track what was released quite a few years ago.

But on the bright side of things I have heard rumours that the new album is or is nearly finished and it is going to be Fire Garden 2.

Is it on itunes yet ?

And for the rest of you complaining: instead of whining on the internet, use the time to work hard and earn the money to buy the guitar of your dreams. I wouldn't. I have a standard universe. I sooner have a second hand original swirl universe that go between £2000 and £3000. I wouldn't pay £5000 f...
