Anybody ever played one? What can I expect? Will it sound good on low Vol or will I need to crank the amp it's connected to?

I was GASing very long for one of these, now I can't wait !!!

Not sure if you need to crank it but I'm sure it'll be awesome, I'm quite jealous, especially as its pink.. no..wait....PINK!!!
:twisted: :twisted:
It really tickles my 80s fetish, my girlfriend even just asked me to play some David Lee Roth and the whole of Passion And Warfare. :lol:
But wait, you're not such a metaller are you? I don't suppose you're hiding some spandex in your wardrobe? :roll: :roll:

Nope, sorry, all my stretch jeans and spandex trousers have been lost during the past years :)

The Pink pre would surely be VERY nice with your neon green JEM ...eh ...if this is yours in the avatar?

Maybe I should now get a late 80s pink Peavey Vandenberg model, that was very hip in those days ,)

you should get one of these

gingataff · « **Reply #4 on:** October 15, 2006, 03:43:07 AM »

You mean one of these?

I used to really want one (a black one though), either that or the Kramer Nightswan which is quite similar, and ended up getting my Charvel fusion as its similar and cheaper.

Sadly the avatar isn't me, I do have a Jem but a 7VHW rather than the 777 in Loch Ness Green.

You're all wrong! Hello Kitty axis surely!

You could always take a permanant black marker to it Hunter! I would, as I've always said it's the sound which is more important! :lol:

Afghan Dave wants one of them!!!!
The Vandenberg guitars were great

I'm quite glad I didn't get one though as I'm sure spare parts for that Kahler floyd rose are impossible to get. But if I remember correctly they used a knife edge on the stud rather than the bridge and suggested rotating the stud as it wears out. Presumably the change in action was not deemed important enough to mention:wink:

Jon - You know my fetish for this model too well and trust my it is only a matter of time till I put in my order and we get to put a Feline spin on these classics.

My dream is too real.

Here you might be able to get one cheap ... in black though

hunter · « **Reply #13 on:** October 21, 2006, 05:03:06 AM »

Well, paid 5 days ago and haven't got it yet. The seller is acting a little weird and I'm starting to get concerned ...

Well he said he'd shipped it Thursday, so let's see whether it arrives Mon ...
