Vinnie Moore is probably my favorite guitar player of all time. His damn Hot Licks VHS lessons gave me hours and hours of frustration back in the day. In his first Hot Licks video, he played his first signature guitar, the VM1. This is a really clean example of the VM1. I actually have two of these with one (a beater) being my main player. This is one for the collection and in its case remains the original Hot Licks video that I nearly wore out in the 90’s. To this day, this is the only time I’ve ever bought tickets to a show and specifically brought a guitar for the artist to sign. Vinnie thought it was cool that I still had one of his first signature guitars (he doesn’t own any now). I didn’t tell him I have six of them.
