Ok, some one needs to transfer the user bars. Can someone please do that?

Also, For amps, I don't think it's as easy as plugging it into a transformer and let 'er rip. Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't your amp blow up if you plug it into a transformer?

I know it sounds tempting..... believe me..... I KNOW...... I was at Guitar Center in US and could get a full tube amp for around RM2000 (Think Randall) and could EASILY ship it back via Fed-Ex or whatever..... but then when you think you need to modify the power voltage to fit our standards and all that..... it gets really expensive AND troublesome quickly.....

So...... FYI.

Anyway, Let's ALL Call up to harass Swee Lee and see if they can bring in the Epi Valve amps!

How big is this place? A huge hall? Small hall? Dinner room?
All those count....

And I've heard of Gibsons and Fenders fighting...... but this is ridiculous!

I just came back from BeatSpot.....
Played the heck out of that Zakk Wylde Epi Camo....
Honestly..... still too bright for my tastes....... prefer the tone of my Bullseye and the EMG actives......

Not much new there though.

Hmmmmmmmm...... I wonder.... if we order THROUGH Yamaha.... maybe we can get the Epiphone Valve amp from Swee Lee singapore????

Makes me drool......

That's true....... but I REALLY like the Camo...... TEMPTATION..........

Oh well.

I checked out Musician's Friend and I converted the Price of an Epi So-Cal Tube Head and Cab and it comes up to about RM2800....... RM3500 also I wouldn't mind getting it from Swee Lee/Yamaha!

Yeah.... it's no JCM800 (Or Even a Ceriatone)...... But RM3500 and I get a WHOLE Half Stack and Head?? Sweeeeeeeeeeeeet

I don't think much of us here are interested in the amp.....
Maybe Echo is..... but that's about it.

Didn't Ask..... didn't care.
Remember.... I had to buy the EMG-ZW separately......

And no.... they are NOT the same material.
The Camo uses a Maple Fret, where else my Bullseye uses a Rosewood fret.
Maple = Brighter, Rosewood = Warmer....

Take your pick.

Yeah.... Now that you mentioned it.........

Anyway..... if I wanted to buy a Gibson, I'd wait for my US trip and get one.

And yes, my first choice is the Gibson Standard if I had the cash, but if not, I'm still torn between a Gibson BFG or the Dimebag Razorback.

But.... the only guitar that will triumph all of the above, would be if Gibson announces the DethKlok signature guitar or an AFFORDABLE Gibson Flying V Zakk Wylde Signature.

Ummmmm. Zakk Wylde fan.... not A Mustaine Fan.......

Oh, and have you guys ever heard of Rockabye Baby! ???

Imagine Metallica, The Cure, Led Zepplin, Nirvana, U2, Smashing Pumpkins, Tool, Nine Inch Nails......

All redone as Lullabies. Yup. Lullabies.

Freakin' awesome!!!!!

Yeah.... happened to me before too.
I changed the plug head to my Amp, and all went ok already.

You have an Orange......
I don't think you need to update it further

I play it Zakk Wylde style......
Or more like Hendrix Style.........

Yeah.... To add Tonality.
Really! I do enjoy playing with my knobs!
Sometimes when I bring my guitar to uni, the girls enjoy playing with my knobs also. They can turn it up, turn it down..... all around. Then, once they are satisfied, they start flicking my switch up and down......

Sometimes, if they bring their guitars, they let me twist their knobs also. Most of the time, if they bring their guitars along, I mostly have to tune their strings. And most of the time, I will have to change their G-Strings as well.

.......sorry. I blame the Guinness.

I think after all the whammy tricks I've been pulling off, my Whammy bar on my RR3 is now as loose as a 2$ Lady of the Night. It just can't stay in the same position at all........

Would buying a new Whammy Bar fix this problem, or is it the bridge itself?

No. Bridge is the same.
It's just that the whammy bar is loose, that's all.
Even screwed on tight, still will be loose.......

I need it to be quite tight fo a few solo parts of my song, but just can't get any grip whatsoever.

Those should be able to fit into my RR3's Licensed FR right?

Anyway..... will be looking to upgrade the FR to an Original Lo-Pro FR by the end of the year, so getting an extra whammy bar shouldn't be a problem......

Besides online, anywhere in KL to get the Whammy bars??

Actually, it's a Jackson made FR.

Floyd Rose(R) Licensed Jackson(R) Low Profile JT580 LP Double Locking 2-Point Tremolo.

But that Tommy Iommi SG looks bada$$!!!

Nope. That's the Randy Rhodes Polka Dot Harpoon that was specially re-made for Zakk by the GMW Guitar company.

The one I'm looking for is used in their new video, Blood Is Thicker Than Water:



The video is absolutely horrible BTW........
