Re: Quiet Riot 1979

Remember when they did the limited run of the concord, I could not believe the price of those things. I always wonder if the people that bought them played them or at that price are they more like art pieces. Weren't they $12,619.56 for his birthday? Absurd pricing. I've never understood why they n...

Re: Quiet Riot 1979

The Concorde will forever be my favorite guitar of his. Something about it is just so iconic to me.

Re: Kathy states there will be an “exciting announcement” on Randy’s birthday..

Does anyone know if they had a re-release of this? Apparently my order from back in September through Thomann went through the other day. They charged me and now it has shipped.

I had completely forgotten about it and had a shock when I had a random charge to my card from Thomann for like $250 lol

Re: MXR® Randy Rhoads Special Edition Distortion+

Well, I decided to try my luck and buy one from Thomann. If they do somehow come through and I get one, I'll try to do an A/B test with it and my script D+ reissue I bought a few years back. No idea if they'll actually send me one though.

Re: MXR® Randy Rhoads Special Edition Distortion+

I've been seeing a lot of talk about it, but I've not seen anywhere about what actually makes this different than a regular Distortion+ ? I get that the modern standard one uses silicon, I think, and the old ones used germanium, but like 10 years ago they had released a vintage script version (that...

Jim Dunop communicated - “Due to unforeseen circumstances the MXR Distribution+ is delayed until mid-spring. We know a lot of you are exc...

Re: Kathy states there will be an “exciting announcement” on Randy’s birthday..

Any new word on the Distortion+ pedal release? I'm really hoping they do something more than just a cliche polkadot pedal, personally.

Re: Kathy states there will be an “exciting announcement” on Randy’s birthday..

A replica board would be nice but doesn't make sense for anyone other than for collectors. The board was comically huge for even back in Randy's day. If they created a replica board I would guess it would sell for 2.5-5k or more. Likely not selling more than a 250 of them, if that even. But that's ...

Re: Kathy states there will be an “exciting announcement” on Randy’s birthday..

I don't quite understand why they just stopped at the Distortion + pedal. Would have been a much bigger announcement if they had said they were releasing a Chip Pan replica. I mean, they had the entire pedalboard right there, took pictures of everything I'm sure and got all the measurements. Yeah, m...

Re: A touchy subject..

So yeah, TLDR, I think his family is very guarded with Randy. Keeping in mind that I could very well be wrong, but I feel like if it was completely up to Kelle Rhoads we'd have gotten a lot more stuff released. Probably in conjunction with his own stuff attached to it too. :lol: While I absolutely ...

Re: New RR Statue

https://knucklebonz.com/product/randy-rhoads-rock-iconz-statue/ Anybody seen this? I guess they couldn't get licensing from Marshall. It looks a lot better than the last two they did. Why have they done this, those 'Marshall' stacks look like something left over from a previous project. The statue ...

Re: Randy Rhoads rare footage live Detroit 1982

Every time we get a glimmer of hope of something good coming out, it seems to get shut down. I swear it'd be easier getting footage of aliens than footage of Randy Rhoads.

Re: Blizzard of Ozzy 40th Anniversary Expanded Edition on 09

Anyone know if You Said It All was remastered or remixed at all or is it basically exactly what we got off of the Mr Crowley Live EP?
