You're a dumbass for assuming I owned the guitar when it's the amp I own. Those guitars blow. The amps are amazing.

You're a dumbass for owning Van Hagar memorabilia.

Which ones? EVH Striped Series or the EVH 5150? They look similar but they're different. The EVH 5150 is $500 more. Are you telling me you are judging the more expensive one by what you think of the cheaper one?

Never tried either of them. Not a fan of EVH spec'd guitars. Tried bonding with both a Peavey and Music Man version and just not for me. HATE Floyd Roses with a passion too.
Not impressed with the EVH brand from what I've seen.

I don't own the amp btw. Just ****ing with ya.

I own some nice amps, but never really use them cause I fear tinnitus. I usually play electric guitars unplugged. So I no vested interest in EVH amps.

I played a regular stripped EVH at G.C., it was used. It looks nice, but it was only an average guitar. I often thought about making my own DIY EVH guitar, but haven't yet. After adding up the parts and see what the project would cost I most likely won't. I also think about making a Micawber and a Jeff Beck Esquire. Maybe one day I'll get around to it.

Once more no idea what you mean by that. Do you own it or are pulling my chain again?

I heard Fender has a new amp, the Tone Master Deluxe Reverb that goes from 0.2 W to 22 W. That to me seem ideal. I like the fact it has six different wattages. I imagine it could a Swiss army knife of amps going between practice/recording amp or a gigging amp easily.

It's a 2008 that I scored from a guy liquidating a recording studio and lots! of gear. I'm running it in half power and in Class A so it's about 25-30 watts. Also use a reactive attenuator before hitting a 1x12.

You know the new Tonemasters are digital?

There are still countries where if you are caught stealing they cut off your hand. When in that country - DON'T STEAL!

Posting anti-gov stuff on Facebook in a country like Vietnam?
Sould get 40 years for stupidity.

Seriously though, with the US pumping more and more business into Vietnam they will have to be careful about looking like a despot country.

On second thoughts......
