Re: Anybody ever buy a Chibson Guitar?

Bad electronics? Sure. But if you pick up a used Epiphone LP with a good neck for $300 and put in another $400 in - EMG passive humbuckers w/ quick connect pots ($250), gotoh tuners ($60), gotoh bridge ($40), tusq nut (15), puretone jack ($5), you are going to have a reliable workhorse guitar that ...

Re: Anybody ever buy a Chibson Guitar?

Hell some Korean Epis feel like toys. Some sound really good, but have shoddy electronics. Not sure about the newer Epis, but have heard good things about them.

Re: We need to talk about Hot in the Shade. (Yes. We do.)

MTV played Forever a bunch, but I don't ever remember hearing it on the radio, same with Hide your Heart. Also, at 15 songs, almost an hour long, HITS was too bloated for anyone to really care. Yeah, I remember hearing it a few times on the radio in Tampa, FL back then, but other than that it was a...

Re: We need to talk about Hot in the Shade. (Yes. We do.)

I think Vinnie said that Forever was primarily pushed by the label, but had very little sales outside of the KISS fandom. The album really had nothing going for it, so even a song like Forever wasn't going to save it. Then they tested the waters with putting the makeup back on and that did nothing t...

Re: Any grandparents draw the line on grandparenting?

Gets better when they get older and you can go out and actually do things. Also once they hit a certain age...like 6, or 7, they mostly want to be on their devices (iPad or whatever) or playing Roblox. Have grandkids into softball, so it's fun to go to the games and watch them play. Just enjoy the r...

Re: Why were Gene and Paul such j@goffs re: Mark St. John?

I think he got the job because of Grover Jackson's recommendation. Mark wasn't properly vetted by Paul, doubt Gene really cared at that point. But Bruce came in to do some work on Animalize, which was more like an audition. Paul tells him to not cut his hair, think Mark was on the way out regardless...

He does it quite often. He's on record saying he never practices, so this is what fans get.

Re: Vinnie Vincent demands everyone on Facebook use real name and photo and post ID

Always a Vinnie fan!! My guess is that something unfortunate happened to him via a fake profile….but who knows. Vin doesn’t typically do things without reason, and if something went sideways on him, he is probably just trying to avoid it happening again. Long live the wiz!!! Vinnie is notorious for...

Re: Donald Trump Won.

Not that it's the same, but there's been plenty of them. Esp on twitter and reddit. There's a whole lot of VERY stupid Harris voters who don't realize that the votes aren't all counted on the first day, screaming "WAIT A MINUTE, THEY DIDNT COUNT 20 MILLION VOTES, THEY DONT WANT US TO WIN"...
