Well, that sounds great to me! And your gear screams old school metal to me. Is that what you play? Are you in a band?

Re: got my EL DIABLO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

speaking of old school metal gear, you got some really 80s-type stuff yourself. 2 lynches, wayne

Are you going to the show @ the Corner Pocket? My band was offered a slot opening on that show, but it just didn't work out. I'm trying to book a show there this Summer, perhaps opening for Stephen Pearcy ...

Re: got my EL DIABLO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This sounds like a great pickup. Actually, I hate the Screamin Demon- find it very wimpy IMO. I consider the Custom 5 to be a Screamin Demon w/ balls. I am a sucker for cool graphics too. Look forward to hearing this el Diablo. Is this a custom shop pickup? I haven't heard of it before.

Re: got my EL DIABLO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[shred-dog]

I think the Pearcy gig is solo stuff (blech); but, he has a name that will draw people, and we're trying to play places outside of NYC now, so I think it will be a good show.

I read about Jake E Lee playing on the Micky Ratt CD; George Lynch played on it, too! Jake's site is now basically down, so there's little information to be had, but I'm looking forward to hearing any new material with him on it. Jake rocks!!

Re: got my EL DIABLO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I played a Scott Ian Jackson (the USA version with rail Diablos) and that thing really does rock! It had MY tone to it! Unfortunaly, I didn't have $900 at the time (that's new!) and I really wish I did.

It does very well clean, too! <---El Diablo
