          I have a copy of Alcatrazz live where Steve uses that guitar.

          I also have Alcatrazz live with Yngwie, and actually thought Yngwie was better suited for that band.

              I know Yngwie would kill me for saying it but my favorite record he ever did was the Steeler record with Ron Keel. Just great raw, energetic rock and roll.

                Indeed he does! Sounded pretty damn close to Yngwie.

                    that was my introduction to him i almost quit guitar after hearing it!

                      Back in the day, through some friends that were in the metal scene I somehow ended up with a copy of the demo that Yngwie had sent Mike Varney for Guitar Player. It's still the most fire I'd ever heard him play with. It was amazing. I had it on cassette tape and my car stereo mangled it though. But I followed him through the Steeler/Alcatraz days and was super-delighted when his 'solo album' Rising Force came out.

                      I have a signed copy of the Japanese Polydor import and I have to say it's still one of my favorite albums of all time. I'm sure he would disagree but I think it's his best album still.

                      The same channel got me the No Life Till Leather Metallica demo with Mustaine playing on it. It was also badass.

                          Is that a CS order?

                          You know not to help with Charvel sales but those production Socal guitars with the pickguard can be easily turned into a Green Meanie...

                            Not a CS order. I built it myself. I had posted my version of the Green Meanie also awhile back as well. The body and neck are Musikraft and the finish is by Marty Bell.

                            Here's the thread on the build.
