• Vinnie's Pink Guitar...

Posted: **Tue Jan 22, 2013 7:06 am**

I was just listening to a metalshop radio show that had an interview with Vinnie Vincent.
They were talking about the second new lp and ending the glam look, and Vinnie claimes in order
to move on with the future he destroyed the pink guitar.... Is this true ???

don't think it was true , he was playing the rock star persona

Re-painted silver & purple with a front p/u added. Used as ASG tour back up guitar to the Carvin,then used on the EP cover.

Shrammy is 100 % correct.

i remember that he was saying that he destroyed like 10 or more VVV's for the Boyz video

Dowse the guitar with lighter fluid,
light it on fire,
put out the flames with urine,
use it to demolish a stack of amplifiers
and then throw it out a window...
While doing so,
practice angry lip curl.

he also claimed to have ran over it with the tour bus. none of which are true. it was repainted i believe. mark slaughter confirmed to me that he only had a few guitars. like only 2 or 3 vvv's. one pink and one white.

He had lots of guitars but not many vv models. 2 jackson, 1 carvin washburn ibanez and pear and now 4 azg guitarmageddons.

that 'making of' boys are gonna rock video that vic put on youtube is very entertaining. The director is very funny.
i don't think he smashes many guitars in that

Hondo "Rhoads" or some other cheapie no doubt were used in the clip. Not Jacksons.

The guitar that the director had attached to him during his Headbanger's Ball visit LOOKED like a Washburn V to me.

The video guitars had the Rhaoads style scratch plates on them though.

Not hard to put those on.

Think about this---- Arbor made some RR copies back in the day.

Hmmmmmmmm

rick is that your rr?

arbor were not an easy brand to find. i remember you could order them real cheap out of the guitar magazines. i never saw them in a store.

Posted: **Tue Jan 29, 2013 10:54 am**

They were plentiful around my town.

Those aren't my guitars in the previous post although I would love to have that bass.

Posted: **Tue Jan 29, 2013 1:19 pm**

I too saw some Arbors in Southern California back in the day

Dana is certainly fond of his Arbor bass! He's not smashing that one in any video!

Posted: **Wed Mar 27, 2013 3:28 pm**

I hope he didnt smash it,its a great guitar!

isnt the pink guitar the same one he used with kiss which was actually gold before?

I don't think so. The KISS V was played by Vinnie again at convintions in the 90's,then went on display at the Hard Rock Cafe in Cardiff.

Posted: **Thu Mar 28, 2013 9:37 am**

Some do not believe the hard rock one to be really the kiss one. If it is the whole thing is not in originsl color and trem not original and one pick up missing. An expert in Sweden where he was selling it said it was not the kiss one but who knows for sure

No, we're talking about the pink and silver double vee Vinnie used in The VVI, not the 3 or 4 Rhoads he used while in KISS!

The fretboard doesn't lie. The markings in the fretboard tell the story. That's one of them. Vinnie just gutted it for parts.

Still not so sure the board matches up.
