Here are some pictures from two films i worked on in the last month.

Not actually pictures of me, i was the shy side of the lens, but you can see through my eyes

Good times, fuckin heavy equipment, but good times

Cheers Alex, I try to pursue photography whenever i can, i work in the camera department, so any experience with composition and light is valuable. On these last two films i was basically a grip. So i didn't do any filming myself. But it was still awesome to get hands on with some new gear; like the Super Peewee III

I finally got around to uploading a pic to reveal just how retarded I am.



Decapitation by RR Vs... I can't think of a more honorable way to go!

Hmm-mmm that Black RR behind your head looks nice. Any more pictures of it?

I don't have any other pictures of it on hand, but funny you ask... that's actually my cheap Japanese model that got used from my local music shop a year ago to ease back into playing again after a 20 year hiatus from playing. My plan then was if I were to stick with it, I would reward myself with a RR1 USA model, which is the one in front. Now I need to learn to play it like it deserves to be played!

What a night and day difference between the two! The Japanese model seems like a toy in comparison. I stuck some yellow pinstripe tape on it to make it a little more exciting. I haven't gotten around to either selling it or trading it for gear yet, but it is handy for making stupid pictures.

Hi Ric

I would be interested in how much you would wish to sell it for, as I love Japanese made electric guitars.

Absolutely! But, I would imagine that the cost of shipping to the UK would be more than the value of it, no? I'll PM you about it.

What kind of Tremelos do they use on Rhoads Jacksons?

Depends on the model -- it's an original Floyd Rose tremelo on the RR1, but the Japanese model I have it's a Jackson made tremelo licensed under Floyd Rose.

[Axeman1956]

yea, cause I have a Floyd Rose tremelo and screws up my tuning. I need a better tremelo that makes the guitar easy to tune

You could try temelo stabilization:

I haven't tried any of the possible options out there, so I can't comment on it at all.
