thanks!

and yes, you´re right! The white Fender is a BlackmoreSig.
It has a great tone and even greater feeling caused by the scalloped fretboard. It´s a total different feeling if you would compare "her" to my Y2D and it´s nearly impossible to say which one is better but finally I would prefer my one, beacause it´s my one! Haha only a joke, the Y2D is more versatile but the Blackmore has a more "bluesy" and warmer sound.


EDIT: Here´s a video of me playing the Blackmore Strat.
In the time after Dio´s death I felt like doing that as a HardRock fan and guitar player.
With my only 2year expearience I was rather failing instead of nailing the solo so please be gentle :)

Hey, enjoyed that... Stargazer is one of my favourite tracks especially live

Is that the Mexican Blackmore ?

Cheers

@Luc:
haha guess what? I´m already saving money for an ENGL Amp(Powerball/Blackmore/SteveMorse?^) but this will take his time because there´s no need for an amp without speakers, which will be as expansiv as the Amp.
If you think that´s too much, I can say that I definitaly prefer saving money over a long time to get sth with high quality instead of having my fun but buying it twice.

@bazxkr:
thanks a lot!
I´ll do it better next year. My opinion is, that I can play/do everything if I want/practice it :)

And jep, it´s the new MexicoModel(2009).

Welcome to the forum DP and congrats on the Y2D as it is a great ax. I will say I am very impressed by your attitude and you have a good one. Strive to be the best possible player that you can be, and always remember the guitar is an infinite instrument that has no boundaries or end. Made in Japan is still one of my favorite albums and a pure live one as their are no overdubs on it,and Blackmores solo on Highway Star on it was way ahead of its time and still gives me a rise. Maybe by the time you are twenty you will be making some noise out their, as we need more young guns like you.

Good job, I financed my MMs doing some ****ty jobs, but when you eventually can buy your dream guitar, it's really worth it. I even played my first Luke through a Spider II 75 amp, and really noticed the difference. Now I've got a nice full tube head with a good cab and they sound a 100 times better!
