unless you see vv on youtube or a picture i think its safe to say other people close to him are running his life.

is that 'running' or 'ruining'?

What is going on, this is ridiculous.

I'm beginning to think Dino is at his wit's end and is going to share a lot of things...

It would be great to hear some truth regarding VV...

Perhaps Dino should write a book...

I wouldn't want my name anywhere near his name , so no book. I do believe someone is putting out a book published in a foreign countryu

just wandering, during the last Kiss vs. VV court battle (it was within the past couple years) do we know if VV attended the hearing? Shame theres no pics if he was there. That would at least shed some light on his health as that would be the last time we could verify he was out of the house / alive / etc. Just wandering....

Nada, Nothing, Zero....No evidence that the guy is terrestrial, amount the living. That why I saying what I'm saying.

So how about it Vinnie (or more like Tom Palecki, Diane Cusaon, Les Kero)....How about a little less talk & a little bit more action (as in a public appearance)

A Facebook account is ideal for vv. He can easily delete unwanted posts. Keep everyone up to date and set records straight. By far the best thing for him and much better than a forum which he will only end up pissing off people as he has no idea how to handle people in a forum. I say a vv Facebook account would be an ideal fit. He also can get the real identity of people like he demanded on the dv board.

Vinnie added some more dialog to the YouTube channel . Now he says everyone is trying to copy the guitar but the original is still the greatest..
Strange . The Jackson is the original. Also only two people other than tom is making it.. certainly not everyone.
Incredible madness if you ask me . If he does get a website going which I doubt.. he will only make things worse. He needs to shut up and let someone who knows what they are doing handle this. All he needs to do is be filmed using the thing. Instead he over charges, picks fights with everyone. Lies about who he is a and calls the guitar original, when we all know Grover and Jackson made the original. This whole company is a trap door with hungry alligators waiting in the bottom of the pit.

Too right Dino. The original is great, the Jackson. The new ones might be great but nobody is going to put down any money to find out, certainly not 9K with a 5K deposit......not gonna happen.

You're unfortunately damn right ! Hope this is not true however...

he will never sell a guitar at even 3k if no one knows how they sound, play or if you are going to get perfection or not. Persoanlly I would say even 2k it wouldn't sell but some don't agree.

this bullshit selling 'tag lines' are just sounding mad.

2K is fair for an unproven luthier. Tom seems like he can accomplish beautiful results but most of us have NEVER played his product.

they look good, but you got to earn that kind of fee with an amazing trusted reputation. Not just the support of a proven crook.

Also I am 90% sure he couldn't get anyone else to make the guitar anyway.

V is correct in saying Tom is his only choice of maker.. he had no choice.

I can not wait for the website that is now happening later in the year.. kill me now if thats the only place you can order any music.

When Grover lent HIS name to a Jackson anniversary model a few years back, Jackson placed a ridiculous price tag on them and sold SQUAT !!!

They were on Clearance at most of the stores that carried them because they priced them too high for the market.

Grover's respected name on a Jackson signature series guitar +high price tag =NO SALES

*** The only reason I purchased a Charvel 25th Anniversary guitar is because it was #86.
They only made 86 .

Rick have you got one of those Charvel Anniversary models? Pics, pics, pics!!!!!!

TJ offered to be the "official luthier" a number of times!

Genebaby wrote:Rick have you got one of those Charvel Anniversary models? Pics, pics, pics!!!!!!

I do have to start taking photos for insurance reasons . Hopefully soon.

The 25th Anniversary Charvel is my Nigel Tufnel guitar. I don't really play it.

You are CORRECT sir! Very publicly on the old board.
I'd only offer him $200 now. Just because I don't think I want to deal with him at this point.

This is the cherry sunburst, single hum one with vintage trem, yeah?

It deserves a thread of it's own baby!

That's the one. LOL

did anyone notice vv removed the catalog order from the youtube text.
did anyone pre-order that? looks like thats over with.

There has not been one confirmed report of anybody ordering anything, guitar or catalog.

Genebaby wrote:There has not been one confirmed report of anybody ordering anything, guitar or catalog.

Yep, yep, yep... Wonder why that is

nobody wants the catalog. if he put it on ebay and people could see the cover etc, maybe someone would buy it for 20 bucks.

All of us want the catalog,guitar,other merchandise ... ... at a reasonable and fair price.

poserboy71 wrote:All of us want the catalog,guitar,other merchandise ... ... at a reasonable and fair price.

Totaly agree with you! The price is a real joke - not fair for fans

I was going to buy 5 catalogues, but at only $50, surely the quality wasn't that good.
Putting pricess so cheap raises eyebrows. No one wants to do business with the ALDI of the music business
If he was serious, he sould have made them $250 and $500 for signed

We all want official vinnie items (they make us smile like a small child at Christmas when they arrive)
Vinnie could learn a lesson from Ace frehley when he sold merchandise via tin man productions all the signed stuff went in a flash at good fan prices and not ripped off,it's our passion don't abuse us for it

i know what you mean man....his music is important to me, sometimes its the only thing that keeps me going

Zem-

Rely on yourself to keep you going (just sayin') VV could give a rats ass unless it's rolled up in 20's

You're right on the money there..Vinnie couldn't care less about us fans he has proven that by not even acknowledging us by sending us a message to let everyone know he's still kicking.

All he said recently is he gives no interviews of any kind.. another kick in the teeth to his fans and complained a guy was boot leging photos from namm, like taking photos at namm is not allowed.

That's right Dino it's all Conspiracy Theory to Vin... Like everyone is out to get a piece of the action??

I don't blame people taking photos at namm it's not like anyone is going to actually place an order for a 9k guitar that you can't touch? And we can't even order a catalog anymore?

Major downer man

Vinnie has the power and the talent to comeback but chooses not to do so... It would just be nice to know why and what is going on???

Why is that he won't do interviews? I checked out those Youtube vids (found in another thread)....and he seemed fine talking his mouth off when he was sporting pink highlights in his fake hair.
I really just don't get it. There's folks literally chomping at the bit to want to talk to the man.

Hey Vinnie, sure you'll get Qs about the KISS days, VVI days, the last 20 years of days, but c'mon man, relish your history and be proud of what you did. Stop being such a cry baby, complaining about every little thing that 'bothers' you. Personally, I reckon it's the shame of fucking everything up that you've touched is what you're hiding behind. Grow some fucking balls and show the world that you're like any other rock star that has gotten old.....I wanna see your bald head playing a fucking guitar to some original music!

Word!

i think he wants to make it clear most of the interviews online that are written (not taped) are fake. If he did a sound interview or filmed interview he could set the record straight. I understand he wants people to not think that these fake internet interviews are real, but he needs to actually do something for the fans. he could easily tape a voice message to the fans and put it on his youtube channel to set the record straight.

Like that freegan song "Like a G6, like a G6 etcccc"
Looked it up on google cause i had NO idea and aparantly they're referencinga private Jet model number.
Whatever!

More people would have understood what he was saying if it was "Like an i7, like an i7"

Vinnie,
NO ONE is trying to defame you . In fact, we try to honor you. We have a sizable list of people we have interviewed about their history in music. Some of these people have a history with you. ALL of your former associates has said great things about your talent. SOME of them have spoken highly of your kindness and sense of humor. A SMALL NUMBER of those people didn't have a kind thing to say about you.
YOU ARE MORE THAN WELCOME TO BE A PART OF THE SHOW OR OUR FORUM AND DISCUSS THINGS IN A FRIENDLY, NON-ABUSIVE, ATMOSPHERE.
We love you and would appreciate something other than threats and high prices from someone we still admire.WE ARE GOING ON WITH THE BROADCAST. It isn't all about you anyway !!! We hope for your understanding but sadly expect otherwise.One more thing if I may , your attempt at legal-speak is laughable . You don't have to address us like that. Just talk to us . SOMEHOW, We STILL remain here as Vinnie Vincent fans.
Love and RESPECT, Rick S.- aka-Poserboy71-- VVFF

Well put

Well said as always Rick. I am more displeased.

Vinnie, your attempts at legalese are laughable and childish. People can totally broadcast anything they want as long as it's true. You seem to think you've copyrighted the air we are all breathing.

Statements like that do nothing for your reputation, attacking us with fake legal mumbo jumbo. We are not as stupid as you would hope us to be.

Just man up and come here and explain yourself. Talk to us as real people. We can see through the shit.

i don't know whats going on but i got to laugh that the only source of info to buy the guitar has legal threats and attacks against former band mates.. how many sales does he want?

someone please clear up what is going on?
