Re: Shawn Lane

He played Charvel 750 models and was indeed endorsed by Jackson in the early 1990's. You can see him and his hard tail Charvel in the 1990-91 catalog. A big man with a big sound.

Re: Shawn Lane

I saw him with the Charvel in the one video I have. I know he signed with Ibanez in 1993 in with the infamous NAMM show apperance. Now he plays some italian guitar. A Big man is correct though. You ever see the footage of him @ 17 when he wasn't fat? Crazy how good that man can play.

Re: Shawn Lane

I was talking to Joe Stump who is a good freind of Shawn and he stated that he uses Ibenhad and Engel amps . That guy is sick. I remembered when Mike Varney put him on Unsigned heroes back in 82 his Solo was called "Haunted House" , My freind Dave was going to play bass for him but decided to try out for an unknown shredder by the name of Greg Howe .... Dave didn't want the gig [img]graemlins/brow.gif[/img]
