Mr. Scary – George Lynch is the latest guitarist to be featured in the Behind The Player series of videos from Alfred Publishing. I would ove to have the money to get my hands on all of these videos. The few that I have seen have been great, and even if the artist is not [...]

Slash Live Tests the AFD100

July 7th 2010

The more I hear this amp, the more I want one when it come out. To me, this is the PERFECT ROCK TONE, and Appetite For Destruction is the perfect rock album. Have we every heard anything that close to the sound of that album? I don’t think so.
