anyone hear of any problems with Cobra heads? Some people seem to say they break alot, has anyone had experiences with this or heard the same?

GEAR talk.

Yeah, I got my free Cobra head from my Framus endorsement in the mail monday. It sounds awesome im, just curious how well it will handle the road.

Does your's have external Bias Points?

If so then its the newer version, which had all the known problems taken care of.

The main problem on the older ones had to do with shitty speaker inputs which had plastic shafts that would break and cause alot of stress on the output tranny.

Yeah, its the newer version. I got it right from the factry last week.

OO so your endorsed by Caparison?? I thought you were just buying them all

Man you have all the good endorsements! What does Peavey send you?

Just wait.. soon we will see a Peter Joseph signature Caparison

cool, i meant like, what shit have you got on your caparison, like what pickups, bridge, etc etc.

wow man, you get endorsed by emg, peavey and dean markley!

how does that work, do they just send a whole load of free shit to your house?

what do you get from emg, ino that sounds stupid, but do they just send the pickups to you or do you just get cheaper guitars coz emg pay for the p'ups or sumthin like that?

man your so fuckin lucky

all my Caparisons have Schaller tremolos, Gotoh H.A.P machine heads and EMG pickups-81 in the bridge and SA in the neck. All the endorsements are different depending on the company, some give me shit for free, others below cost and some right above cost. But either way its all better than having to pay full price for things. Plus you get first pick at new items and better tech and repair service. I cant complain.

So, any idea when the CD will come out?

And can you tell me what solo's you play on Seven Demons and I,Deceiver

__________________

we go in the studio this week with Eric Ruttan. The cd should be released world wide in August. As far as the leads go, I play the opening lead in Seven Demons and after the bridge I play the first lead the first. In I deciever I play all the ascending and desending runs, the chorus runs, the bridge lead and when the leads switch on and off im first and third.
