Music Trivia Game - Page 30

Yeah, but see, the Universe isn't really Vai's signature, it's more like the sister guitar to the Jem that Vai helped design. It's a distinction I should have made, for clarity. But madd propz for knowing that Vai pioneered modern 7-string use.

I have a question ready to go. Can we get a ruling on this?

EDIT1: I just read your last post. Thanks. Passion And Warfare is one of my desert island albums.

EDIT2: I still think I correctly answered the specific question you asked, though.

Ibby · 08-01-2006, 04:10 PM

I'm sorry, but the 7-string Universe isn't really Vai's sig, and he doesn't play it very often at all, either.

Flint · 08-01-2006, 04:11 PM

You didn't specify "signature" guitars. He frickin' invented it, to me that makes it "his."

Ibby · 08-01-2006, 04:21 PM

I am going to flip a coin. Heads, it's your turn; Tails, we wait. It doesnt affect me either way, so I have no reason to lie.

Tails... Sorry, man. Difference between the Jem and the PG.

Flint · 08-01-2006, 04:25 PM

It isn't a coin-flip issue. You asked a question and I answered it.

You can't add conditions after the fact. You asked, I answered. My answer was right, then you changed the question. End of story. My turn.

Ibby · 08-01-2006, 04:45 PM

Your answer was not correct, see my comment about Gilbert also playing 7-strings sometimes. Playing the axe sometimes, having one, even designing it doesnt make it HIS. The Jem is HIS, the Universe is just a side thing. I'm sorry, dude, but the 7-string is not what sets Vai apart from Gilbert.

JayMcGee · 08-01-2006, 06:25 PM

godammm....... I guess even music tirivia can turn into a heated debate.... (cue mrs. Merton....)

So, what is the difference....

Ibby · 08-01-2006, 06:43 PM

But STEVE VAI'S IBANEZ IS NOT A 7-STRING. He HAS an Ibanez that has seven strings, but so does Gilbert. Therefore the answer is not valid.

Flint · 08-01-2006, 06:46 PM

You didn't specify, in the question, whether you meant a "signature" guitar, or a guitar that the person actually invented. I answered the question, in it's original form, correctly. You can't make new rules up after I already answered correctly.

Ibby · 08-01-2006, 06:59 PM

Vai has designed more than one model of guitar, and did not invent the 7-string guitar. Please, Flint, just STOP.
