Vigier guitars are amazing.

[ShredTraining]

Hello,
 
I just received a Vigier Excalibur Special. These guitars are ridiculous!

That is all.
 
Thanks Mr Vigier, you have a great talent.

Hi Jonathan,
   Congrats on your new Vigier and welcome to the forums...post some pics of the new girl, eh?? 

[ShredTraining]

I will take some pics tomorrow, I will also be using the guitar for my guitar app videos. There will be plenty of videos in future. 
 
You live in Salisbury UK? That is where my Vigier came from.

[Ben]

Yep, Salisbury UK indeed! 
 
There once was an amazing UK guitar shop - Percy Prior's - that sold Vigier's in Salisbury...

[ShredTraining]

Small world!
 
I got my first guitar from Percy Priors. An Ibanez RG550
 
I live in Newbury by the way, 45 mins from you.

[Ben]

When was that - I managed the Rock Dept, so if it was between 1999-2004/5 I could have sold you the guitar! 

[ShredTraining]

Yeah you could have.
I got it December 2000
 
A black ibanez rg550

[Ben]

Ha...maybe...there were 3 of us in the Rock Dept; 2 Mike's (1 drum, 1 guitar) and myself. Very possible indeed...glad to see you have made it over here to Vigier...enjoy!!!

Do you know Junk DNA? I think they were from Salisbury and one of their members worked at Percy Priors.
 
 
I really want to try a Shawn Lane signature now. I think it would be the perfect guitar for me.

[Ben]

Junk DNA - yep, that was me. Toby (bassist) was from Newbury!! Small world indeed!! 

[ShredTraining]

Toby, you know me! Mr J Strange!
 
How mental is this!?
 
You work for Vigier now?

If you love low action, fast guitars then the Shawn Lane guitars, with flat radius necks are in a league of their own. 

[ShredTraining]

Oh you're the guitarist?
 
I believe you gave me discount on some cymbals years back when I went to Percys with Toby.
 
Cheers!

I still keep in regular contact with Toby - he will be at my wedding next year!! 

[ShredTraining]

Excellent, glad to hear he is still alive!

What a nice guy!! Yeah, I was guitarist in Junk DNA.

[Ben]

Do you have a Shawn Lane signature?

Yep, Tobs is still well, living Oxford way I believe.
For a Shawn Lane, no, not in my UK stock at present, but you can find one right now if you look at what our dealers have in stock (World Guitars and Tone World currently)...though the Shawn Lane sigs are rare to come across.

[ShredTraining]

Nice one, I will take a look! I have to get a zero radius 6 string!
I remember you actually. I was sat there playing guitar and you insulted me for showing off? You were obviously joking, but yeah.. for some reason I remember that.
Thats my site if you are interested:

[ShredTraining]

Thanks

[Ben]

No probs!! Take care!!
