Re: Other Yngwie308 Guitars
Hey,it's great to be here,currently I have My Marshall 1959 Super Lead Handwired stack and my Crate Vintage Club 30 watt with a single Celestion G12H-30 Anniversary series speaker,love it for home playing.
All my old amps are gone,but not forgotten.Back in the mid nineties I hooked up with the infamous Music Ground of Leeds,England and did the dirty work,driving trucks renting them,picking up gear at the airpor,setting up at the Vintage guitar shows,ect.But..I met a lot of real cool people in 1994,including Tom Murphy of the Gibson Custom Shop/Heritage Division and Edwin Wilson,who was an assistant then and now is manager.
I had the opportunity to see and sell many very rare and cool vintage English amps.I sold my primary collection to Eric Bazilian of the Philadelphia based Hooters,I also met Pennsylvania native Tom Keifer of Cinderella,who is an amzing songwriter and guitarist,vocalist.just missed playing his famous 1959 burst,by a few minutes,I had to leave for my 3-11 shift at work,bummer!
Also I grew up in London England,my dad in the Navy stationed there.I was 11 years old and bought my first amp ,a 1967 Marshall Super lead and a 1982A 30H top cabinet 4X12,and the rare metal handled tall bottom cab,basketweave,with G12M-25's in it!I bought these at the original J&T Marshall shop in Hanwell London,many a famous musician I saw there,and I could tell hours of stories about my experiences at the mecca of Marshalls in London from 1967 to 1972!!
I love all kinds of primarily guitar based music and I have a mint.mint collection of mid sixties to mid seventies of rare English and German ppressing LP's,original hendrix on Track,Original Cream on Reaction,so many albums I can't list them,but hope to transfer them all to cd soon,if I can sort out a good method without loading up my hard drive.
Great to be here again and look forward to hearing from you,favorites for me are Tommy Bolin,early Purple,Jeff Beck,Robin Trower,Steve Stevens,Yngwie Malmsteen,Micheal Schenker recently,Gary Moore.
