Ok guys, heading off to Disneyland in a while, so will break off contact unless I find a WiFi spot in Disneyland, which is almost impossible.

And yes, the 300 soundtrack kick so much A$$. Waiting for the next installment of the 300!

Woo hoo! Free WiFi IN Disneyland Hotels! I'm in freakin' heaven right now!

Sorry EchoB, no Lamb of God DVD..... they only had the older Killadelphia one. But worry not! As I'm going to Europe in September, so will hopefully find it there. Will get the Dragonforce DVD if I can there too. But if I find it in LAX airport, will definitely get it there. Sorry again man.

Woooo... feet hurting back from Disneyland today. Final day here *sob* *sob*

Alot of Hannah Montana and Camp Rock stuff going on.......... But one of the street performers had a BEAUTIFUL Gibson Hollow Body guitar. Will post pics when I can.

Will be heading off tomorrow already, so I should be back on Malaysian home soil in about 2-3 days. Sorry. No cool stuff to show off except for the MXR Carbon Copy.

Sorry to hear that echo..... my the gods of guitars bless your wallet to feed your GAS soon.....

Reporting in from Taipei airport and should be hitting Malaysian soil in about 5 to 6 hours time. And luckily I didn't bring back a guitar. MAS airlines in LA had a VERY STRICT policy of only 1 hand luggage and no exceptions. I saw some poor guy's guitar had to be checked in (An acoustic in a really crappy gig bag no less) and it's probably going to be in splinters when it comes back home.

Oh well....... at least I can look forward to my Razorback 255 from Singapore soon!

Will do. I would definitely want to test that out too.
Oh yeah, I WILL have to censor out some of your words. Remember the Bman incident? Please change or the whole message will be deleted.

Also, I just came back from Spruce guitars. Just placed an Order for the Razorback 255 in Dime Slime rclxms.gif Will be getting it around a month's time. Looks like I got my wings!

Oh and if you're interested, The Dean Trivium's are NOT coming in, but they are getting in the Mustaine Angel of Death, some Razorbacks and the MLs. They are not bringing in any other accessories, including the new Dean Pickups, but if you want anything, they can order it in for you....... for a price.

I might, but I already have so many EMG equipped guitars which I love the tone so much, I don't find a need to change. Heck, I'm getting another pair of EMG 81/85 that I don't even NEED at the moment...... but just like to keep around. Might swap them into a Gibson Les Paul Standard IF I ever get one.

But as for the blackouts, unless I buy a guitar that's already equipped, I don't think I'll get a pair JUST to try out the sound.

If it's PAFs, of course I'll keep them in. But if it's Burstbuckers, I'll probably play around with it for awhile, and if I like it, I'll keep 'em. If not, In comes the EMGs.

Another tempting option is getting a cheaper Gibson Les Paul Classic or Studio and whacking in the EMGs.

If you want to see the power of the Marshall with my effects, will post up an AUDIO clip of it.. Youtube sucks when it comes to comparing guitars and stuff like that.

My 255 will be in hopefully in 1 month's time.
