| Hello All
New to the forum so if you would like to share anything about the old guitars like
what amps, strings compliment VIPERS, DEACONS and PREACHERs would greatly appreciate it.
We have a group called HETTY BLACK which is on MySpace where you can hear just how that old Viper sounds.
Cheers!

Checked out your site... guess you're not interested in the Typhoon, Thunderbird, Hurricane, Tornado, UKII, Breadwinner, or PF-22 ??
Welcome. Checked out your site on Myspace... Nice tunege.
As for strings, I used to use exclusively a hybrid set of Kaman Performers. More recently I've beem experimenting, but I'm leaning toward 9's. |

Location: Jet City | hetty, there are many (myself included) that believe the UKII is one of the greatest guitars ever produced by any manufacturer, period. In my opinion, it puts the Preacher to shame. The pickups are very unique to themselves, very much like the Viper pickup is to single coils.
Someone with an intro like yours absolutely HAS TO find a way to get your hands on one.
And Miles.... Typhoon? Come on now, that's a bass and it doesn't count. And what's a "Thunderbird"??? The fortified wine you were drinking when you wrote that post? |
