By the looks of the finish, it has never seen sunlight! No, it has nice color and is just a dream to play. Are there a handful of favorites in your collection? I had a Nady wireless in that one — with no routing! My buddies Rich Bandoni and Anthony Woo have been installing wireless transmitters in my guitars for years.
My new favorite guitar is a PRS custom-built for me. I sent him an original Floyd and a Nady transmitter, and they built me this beautiful blue Speaking of road guitars, is the black Les Paul with the Floyd Rose the same one seen on the live Ozzy videos back in the day? Yes, I had three guitars on the road with Ozzy. That was scary for me and them, because they had never done it laughs! So after some detailed carving and placement, I had them route behind the bridge because I had to be able to pull and push the bar.
How about the red guitar? How long have those been in that guitar? Quite a long time. That was pretty hot, almost a little too hot. I switched it out with a JB quite a few years back and got a little more control over the tone. My live rig is outstanding! I run my Soldano through a couple old HiWatt cabinets with Fane speakers. Yep, they made of them. I have a nice Ovation mando with a wireless installed laughs!
Are you going to start chasing vintage mandolins? But are you looking for anything in particular, collection-wise? How many guitars do you take on the road now? I only take three. Since we do a lot of flying, a lot of times I just take one. Well, I retired the red one a while back. I envision going to the baggage claim and opening an empty case. So I had to retire it.
I use it at home and take it out to do local gigs. The two Strats and my PRS are my main live guitars now. Have you replaced any parts on it over the years? I never had to replace anything except the frets and one original Floyd bridge piece that broke. At one of our shows in Japan last year I met a man who came up to our van with an original Floyd in his hand and wanted to give it to me.
Is it getting tough to find original Floyd Rose setups? Not really. I collect the older ones. Does the Les Paul have any special custom wiring? Any other projects in the works? Her record should be out later this year. All copyrights are by the author and Vintage Guitar magazine.

I could be at the opposite side of the stage, hit the button, and turn on my lead channel or activate a chorus or delay. The third button has since been converted to a light, and the wireless switching removed.
Buckle wear on the back is drastic. Current Issue Read Now! Now, all my guitars are set up floating, so you can raise the bridge up or down. So, that motion made it shake.
What do you recall about the solo in Sister Christian? I had always worked off of natural sustain — mainly through a cranked amplifier. So, our producer, Pat Glasser, suggested we max the crap out of the amp, and pumped the speakers in the control room creating a loop effect, where I could stand right in front of the playback speakers, and get massive sustain. They took the best performances from both shows, creating the record. So, when I joined the band, it was quite a heavy situation.
And when I flew to New York for the audition, I basically found out it was just me. So, I did the best I could practicing in my hotel room every day, with a small amp, a boombox and a live board cassette with Randy that had been recorded a few months earlier. Listing Sold.
