Locked out of the Double V Forum
Locked out of the Double V Forum
The best that I can tell it appears that I have been locked out of the DoubleV Forum because I chose to join this forum in addition to be a member of the other forum. To who do I owe the honor of thanks? Susie Q? Spyder or Vinnie Cusano Vincent himself?
I'm one of those people that could have afforded to buy that $8,000 guitar.
Big Mistake!

How would http://doublev.forumco.com/ know that I signed up to http://vvforums.hqforums.com? . Sounds like some foul play is at hand. How would site abc know that I've signed up to site xyz. Don't get it. This makes http://doublev.forumco.com/ a site that is using illegal Exclusive Dealing. 'Exclusive dealing broadly involves one trader imposing restrictions on another trader’s freedom to choose with whom, or in what, or where they deal. Exclusive dealing is prohibited by section 47 of the Trade Practices Act'. End of Story
What is basically happening is that Vinnie is checking the people that are now members here.
He hasn't posted again as Susie Q but can lurk as a guest as this forum isn't locked down.
If your name here is the same, which most are, we like our usernames, then the rest is easy.
Doesn't make any sense, but it can be done.

Genebaby, man, totally agree with u , but would one really go to such extremes. Sounds exhausting just thinking of doing that. And it's not like there are a billion VV fans anyway. (Not that there shouldn't be a billion fans...music specks for itself) And in 'assuming' that the username on site abc is the same person on site xyz sounding like assuming I'm guilty before I've done the crime. Can't be proven unless the user admits to it. And what is so wrong with having this site open up. Heaps of bands & actors have fan sites that have forums on it. I use to own two coffee franchises & the saying was if another coffee store opens up next to you it could work out to be a good thing, cause it have a multiplying effect. The word gets out. It makes you bigger & better that what you do.
We can't be sure why any of these things are happening to us.
We've all posted on the other board as we talked about Vinnie with not much hope of a return and then in recent times when news of upcoming releases was impending, anybody can see we are the true faithful.
This board will stay on as a place to speak freely about all aspects of Vinnie's career, everyone is welcome. Old band members, associates, what have you.

Is anyone capable of viewing the old board or is it shut down completely ? I can't tell if it is incapable of access it due to reconstruction OR I have actually been banned. My username still pops up but it will NOT let me change my password.

hi, i've tried to log on on the old forum, it states that the username or the password are incorrect.So i've tried to register again, only to find out that my nickname and my email adress are already used by another person.That's funny,in a way.Thew whole thing is pretty pathetic.
And, if, and i repeat if, somebody is using my email address, it will be funny to see what he/she/it can do with it.
I don't think it's too hard to run a forum in a decent way.If there was nay problem with me, it would have been simpler to say tha t i wasn't allowed or banned.
Not that i would lose any sleep about it, anyway

I agree...we had A LOT ! There were some really rare stuff their too, board members that scanned old magazine etc. We even did some interviewing. I did an email interview with David Snowden (friend of Vinnie and old fan club manager) and I think Doublev did a short one with Bruce Kulick..right?BearFan wrote:I never really posted on the old board, but would read it on occasion. It is a shame (besides the obvious soap opera) that all the interviews, etc are all gone, I realise they exist all over the net, but it was a nice collection all in one place.
And I remember that endless 8 page thread about his guitars with pictures and how they've changed. Lists of guitars and so on.
Will do. I'll try and get some different ones from the copies I posted before.Genebaby wrote:Mate, it's been a strange time. Settle back, read some posts. It will take a while.
Post some pics of your guitars in the Musical section.
I had a good read of the board, and I understand what's happened. A very odd time.

I was booted off Double V as of today. I made some comments about Vinnie's Guitars...then I checked back and I was booted.
So lame..
Vinnie, love ya brother...but you gotta stop taking shit out on the fans. It is not our fault you cannot File Chapter 13 Bankruptcy protection against the counter-suit by Gene and Paul. While I think the two of them are lame to have treated you in the past, you lost this whole deal in a court of law. This is now impossible to change. The Kiss machine has won.
But it is not over...you should drop all your non-sense and get Jackson Guitars to re-make your two main axes you used in the Creatures and LIU era. One to be in Acapulco Gold and the other Faded Hot Pink. Both with upside-down Inlays, rosewood fingerboard, no backplate, road worn markings, and the zebra pickup in the neck position and every other wiring part exactly done the same. Sign every one of the guitars, limited edition and BAM!!! you will easily make the $81,000 dollars you now owe the courts.
Then,
Do a Formal Meet & Greet
Have excellent security involved and you must show up to every event before you get paid. Just in case you feel like jerking around.
Finally,
Get Robert Fleishman (if his voice can still do it), Dana Strum (when is not running around being Vince Neil's bass player and personal assistant) and Bobby Rock (I am sure he would be available and has never had a bad word to say about anything of the past) and rock the friggin' club circuit around the world as VVI.
100 limited Edition Guitars x $6000 = $600,000 x .4 = $240,000 (Vinnie's Share)
Meet and Greet (unknown earnings without a full Situation Analysis of Market)
- Showcase the band for the following Club Circuit Tour
- Meet and Greet Pic with an Autograph
- Merchandise for Sale
- Heavy Q & A Segment to clarify all past events - court cases etc.
VVI World Re-Wind Tour - 1986 All Cver Again
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THAT EVERYONE!!!???
I want to be manager /personal liaison of the entire process and will take a 10% cut.
Who wants to work for me?
Good to be back and chatting with all of you.

Hi Eddie,
Welcome to the Board. Can I ask how you found us? Obviously Vinnie isn't advertising on his board.
I saw your You Tube page, very cool guitar playing.
A reunion tour of the original VVI would be a total dream come true overload. To hear Robert sing the first album live would be brilliant.
Every man and his dog has been getting back together again these past 15 years, so why not VVI? Most likely Vinnie would be the main hurdle to overcome to make it happen.

Someone contacted me about coming here....so I did.
Genebaby, Thank you for viewing my youtube channel...
I appreciate that so much.
I have transcribed all guitar solos that Vinnie played on Creatures and LIU. I plan on doing videos for those one day.
I hope everyone is enjoying this new Forum...
Can Vinnie shut this site down too?

This is a fan site. The other place is propaganda for v, its message board communism. Everyone here loves Vinnie and can not understand his strange way he makes enemies with good honest fans and takes money from them (eg boxset) and the fake users on his board.
Also about kiss. Yes we all know he had a hard ride but he pretty much agreed to join one of the biggest bands in the world for very little return. I think that was the deal and he like his vvi band mates used v to get a step up, he.at least got a reputation enough to be able.to record a record under his own name.

welcome eddie .. you are also a victim of being deleted .. no worries your better off being a fan from a far than trying to get close to soem one who dosnt give a fuck about you.
so i say welcome back!
to a real board
cb
ps sounded like a good plan too bad .. no one at fender/jackson would want to would with him on doing a guitar like that.i think if he could have he would have already... i think thats the reason why many major manufactors havent picked up vinnies signature model ,and thats why hes back to a basicly unknown builder.
so i say welcome back!

Any time that I have called Carvin in the past, they have ALWAYS used the excuse that they no longer had machines that were BIG enough to make the Vinnie Vincent guitar. In recent years , they have reintroduced some of the old pointy shapes to their catalog again. Maybe I'll call them this week and try again.

i just don't know how those few jackson's came about, unless they were made for vinnie and he didn't take them.
there was no way they would make one for me. it would be great to know who ordered teej and fullshreds guitars originally.
carvin did say that they no longer work with vinnie and this was just after 'that time of year' video. (i think the video aired around july 16 1988) and I had my dad call Carvin the monday after headbangers ball aired.
I ended up getting the exact copy of his double neck in black with abalone block inlays and gold hardware. the 12 string on that was great.

Hey doublev...
I think a Vinnie model can be done through Jackson Guitars. Jackson has a Custom Shop Department that, and I quote from their website, "Our Custom Shop is ready to build your dream guitar or bass!"
http://www.jacksonguitars.com/customshop/specform/
All specs are there to choose from in order to make a Vinnie Model from Creatures / LIU eras. JUST DON'T SAY YOU WANT IT TO BE A VINNIE VINCENT GUITAR.
- Acapulco Gold or Hot Pink (the best may be some off shoot of red or just go with the Acapulco Gold)
- Binding on the Neck
- Sharkfin Reversed Neck Inlays
- Non-Recessed Floyd Rose
- Zebra pickup in neck position (may have to be done aftermarket)
- I believe he had an EMG active pickup in the bridge position (never saw a battery compartment for it on the back so I believe the battery was shoved under the pickguard / electronics area)
- Neck painted up through headstock
- Neck Through the Body
- Black Pickguard
- One volume / Tone knob
- One Toggle switch
- One possible phase switch (not exactly sure what the mini switch did, it's my guess as to what it was)
If someone wants to talk more details...feel free to ask or disagree with me...not a problem. I will help in any way I can.
I hope this helps and feel free to look at the link I have listed above. It's the official Jackson Guitar Website.

Thanks Eddie. Jackson probably won't make another doublev though, due to the Artist guitar rules, which is a bit of a downer.
Looks like the Rhoads' models can be replicated for the most part, though they will get modern Jackson decals. They did a run of Gold ones just like Vinnie used recently as a limited edition.

Jackson will not make the Vinnie model. A few of us contacted them last year.
Regard to an earlier post, yes its a big shame all that guitar research everyone including Freddy has gone. I really find it odd he was deleted and he didn't post anything for a good while. Freddy was so positive and he went to 3 shows on the asg tour. Its unbelievable behavior from v , treating his biggest fans this way. Obviously being a long term fan is not a cool thing in vinnies mind. Loyalty counts for nothing.

probably the miniswitch was to activate the midboost that Vinnie had in his guitar.
Apart from the copyright issues i think any good luthier can make a replica of this guitar,i don´t think its necessa´ry to ask to a big manifacturer.
Just imagine what would happen if somebody in China decided to build copy, it would get Vinnie Q. quite mad..........
