TR: Six Flags Great Adventure!!!
Billy replied to ElToroExtreme's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
phewwww! i got up this morning and wanted to go... good thing i didnt. You had the day i thought it was goin to be...thanks for TR, now i dont feel so bad. -
i own 2 Ibanez guitars. The Jet King II and a cheap GAX70. They are work horse guitars and after 5 years and a number bangs, gigs, hot - cold temps, drops, swings ..etc... the GAX70 still plays damn well. I bought a mex Telecaster and it was a disaster from the get-go. Theres good and bad in all. You just have to play everything you can, dont just buy a Gibson for the sake of owning a Gibson (some people are like that). Play the crap guitars, play USED guitars ( they usualy prove they are worthy) sample a little of this an that. youll come across soemthing.

depends on what you play too. i noticed out of a Fender Twin Reverb amp i can not get the tones i like that a STRAT makes than a guitar with humbuckers, like a Gibson. Both are good guitars. In my opinion and experience, Mex and Jap strats are poorly made. Youll run into tunning issues and neck issues without a doubt. I would stay away from a cheap strat - unless you can find one with a hardtail style bridge. Since you seem to have money to spend, look at G&L Guitars - They were Leo Fenders company after he sold Fender to CBS. American made and super good quality - but costly , 800$ and up for a strat. check the out.

Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
Billy replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
from watching the animations and testing vids on youtube, you knew that inversion was something brutal from the beggining - either to the track or the rider. its a bummer to see it go. atleast now no one can brag and say they rode it! -
wow! far more intense looking than i thought it would come to be. Robb, how was that high banked s-curve? that part looks so aggresive and sweet... thanks for the vid!

Which Coaster Gives The Best AIRTIME???
Billy replied to Crazy4Coasters!'s topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
the best air i have dealt with is SROS @ SFNE. serious forces there. cant wait to try El Toro this year... -
yes MST3k! love the show. i went to their convention in NYC a few years back. Joel was there with Dr. Foster and Frank. it was pretty funny. I had Kevin Murphy say " RUTH!" to me, it freaked me out. lol then he drew a little pic of Tom Servo and signed it! good stuff!

Photo TR: Montu has a new coat of paint! (Completed)
Billy replied to Erik Johnson's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
wow, Kumbas new paint is already starting to get dirty. sucks. she looked so pretty all cleaned up... -
change is good somtimes. if they get their thinking caps on right, they possibilities can be pretty good with themeing and all. People will connect with it too, and kids will dig it for sure. It will be the equivalent to adding a Star Wars attraction, people will show up to check it out just because its Star Wars, you dig?
