Spoke to someone who spoke with mike Shannon. He made the first to vv guitars. He said vv had the concept which was adapted from the rrv and mike went from their. Just good to know.

That's all I know. Can someone contact mike Shannon?

Post by **Genebaby** » Sat Sep 10, 2011 9:38 pm

I'll see if I can get a hold of Mr Shannon through some Jackson contacts.

If vv had agreed a normal % cut with Jackson he and his guitar would be a legend like rr now. Sometimes vinnie its best to just get things out there instead of asking too much cash that leads to making less cash.

or no ca$h.

Yes . No cash. A little means a lot . A lot means nothing.

He could have had Shannon make it , maybe even now if he had not been greedy. I don't think they would have matched the asg in personal attention and love though.

We'll see if I can get a hold of Mike. He has the original blueprints for the VVV I have just been told, so the plot is thickening.

Wow. Didn't know that.

Post by **Genebaby** » Sat Sep 10, 2011 10:37 pm

Yeah, if I can get in touch with him it should be an interesting tale of how the VVV came into being.

Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm!!!

Guessing this is the pink and student neck guitars?? Apart from the dots and the Jackson Floyd, they are pretty much the same. Funny then that Drew's has Rhoads shoulders and Teej's has that long top shadow fin??? Wonder why the same plans weren't used???

Shram, Don't you remember a certain interview that I did ??? I think we should have gone about this in our old school way but I guess we are just announcing shit openly now !!!
