Members wok Posted April 5, 2010 Members Share Posted April 5, 2010 Yes, but now he plays his Jackson (essentially a Fender super-Strat with a Jackson logo - owned by Fender - on the Strat headstock) almost exclusively, with an occaisional SG sighting being the only exception. let's not forget this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mackin Posted April 5, 2010 Members Share Posted April 5, 2010 Dave Murray was the first one that came to my mind. There's also Trevor Peres of Obituary, a long-time fat strat player. I love his guitar sound - rat-boosted JCM800 never fails to deliver the grind. I saw them live last fall in Quebec city, awesome show ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ThePunisherTF Posted April 5, 2010 Members Share Posted April 5, 2010 Although he doesn't play "shred/metal" anymore, Richie Kotzen used to burn it up back in the day. He's got a few signature strats and teles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bish0p34 Posted April 5, 2010 Members Share Posted April 5, 2010 Roland Grapow did while he was in Helloween. He wanted to be Yngwie, so that explains it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members rrrajo Posted April 5, 2010 Members Share Posted April 5, 2010 Jim Root of Slipknot I hate everything...but if that had a regular headstock it would be swinging on my wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
