Hah, yeah, I was kidding. Actually, I have seen in person some of the ups & downs of Michael, it's been hard to watch.It's really sad because like alot of us, I grew up loving his playing, but his past drinking & current emotional issues have not helped his career IMO.

Members Vigo1999 Posted August 31, 2006 Members Share Posted August 31, 2006 Originally posted by Rufus Leaking A complete trainwreck of a marketing concept. Anyone who's a diehard MS fan is probably 30+ and well beyond a starter amp. Most kids who are looking at $80 beginner amps probably have never even heard of Schenker. oh yeah, absolutely true!! :thu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members FIREWIND7 Posted August 31, 2006 Members Share Posted August 31, 2006 Originally posted by Acid Test Why not? Have you seen some of the junk that is now associated with Michael Schenker. This guy is becoming the ultimate sell-out. He has become an overweight, out-of-practice sell-out. This pains me to say, considering he is one of my all time favorites - hell my first real guitar was a Gibson V because he played one. Those days are gone now since he sold out to Dean. Listen to any of his guitar work post 1995 - not very impressive. If you were in extreme debt and got {censored}ed over by your ex wife and also former friend who scammed you, wouldn't you not lend your name to cheap {censored}?

Damn how much is he getting for it ... giving his name for a pice of {censored} like this? I would not give my name for something like this ... but I have a daytime job ... Yep, that's the one. If you can find it, give it a try. This baby isn't that shabby sounding anyway, although I would go for a Roland Cube for more variety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members 17 Tubes Posted September 1, 2006 Members Share Posted September 1, 2006 Originally posted by Ultron Sucks to see what a sellout he's become. The guy really hit rockbottom (no pun intended)....exwife/gf cleaned him out, booze, paranoia, living in a hotel. Bogus.....I grew up on him, he was a guitar god in the early 80s. Before that.

Members KightTemplar Posted September 1, 2006 Author Members Share Posted September 1, 2006 Originally posted by Songman68 Looks like Dean is selling several different cheap amps now. http://www.deanguitars.com/amps.php I actually tried the M-16, and...........BOY! The overdrive channel is so {censored}ing Eric-Johnsonish! I plugged a 50's strat reisue and I swear it's Eric Johnson's tone! Don't believe me? Go find a music store, find that amp, grab a strat, plug it in, and BELIEVE! It also sounds nice with humbucker-equiped axes as well!But the clean channel is too thin. What a pity.
