Another new one

[Thorgrimm]

Hi guys,

just want to introduce myself:

I am from Germany and 33 years old. I am a great metal fan since the age of 13, US Death Metal mainly, now.
As a teenager I wanted to have a Jackson, because 1. Megadeth played it, and 2. the headstock looked damn cool! :-)
I bought a used Kelly Performer on ebay than, which I still own today. For being a low budget instrument it sounds great, and I dont have to handle it with care. :-)
Later I bought a Gibson LP, but 2 days ago I bought want I always wanted to have: A Randy Rhoads. I choose the RR5, ivory white. Sounds great, looks great and dont have a tremolo, which I dont use anyway.
Ok, thats all for now. Pics will follow...

Hello Thorgrimm, wie geht's heute?

Welcome.

Is it true that David Hasselhoff albums outsell the Scorpions?

[Trussrod]

Welcome, Thor!

Welcome.

Is it true that David Hasselhoff albums outsell the Scorpions?

Why do the americans always talk about David Hasselhoff if somebody is from Germany? I dont know anything about this guy! :-)
But I cant think about that. Hasselhoff has a short time of success during the 80s, the Scorpions are the most successfull german metal band.
I got nothing of both of them. :-)

Thanks everyone, ok, any new day I feel certain, that I have done right, to buy the RR5. What a feeling on the fretboard. Very smooth which is pretty important for my liking.
Unfortunately I dont know how to post pics... :-/

Welcome to the forum!!

I see you have one of my all time favorite albums as your avatar! That album heavily influenced me in many ways growing up. I play Jackson's through Crate Amps w/ D'Addario EXL120 strings.

[Thorgrimm]

Me too. I saw the "Symphony of Destruction" video on MTV first and it blew me away. Up to this I just heard to the musik my father liked, like Rolling Stones, CCR,...
1991/92 were awesome years for music: Black Album, Appetite for Destruction, Countdown to Extinction...

[Larz]

Just joking with the Hoff, I guess we can't understand how the guy had two # 1 singles in Germany, ha ha.

[6string40]

Yeah...we can't understand any part of the Hoff's success!

Welcome aboard! Looking forward to the pics!!!

Appetite for Destruction was 1987. The Use Your Illusion albums were 1991. Welcome to the forum.
