Cool. What was he doing? Digging around in his basement?

God... I`d love to see the original old Judge Death Dredd, and TMNT axes.

anyone got any decent pics?

What ever it says at the top, he didn't use that on the ATL tour, as he was with ESP at the time. He switched back to Jackson on the SoE tour...

The TMNT guitars were Danny's, not Scott's - here's a site I threw together about Spitz's guitars:

That Dime axe is awesome.

It says, "L'Chaim" on the back of the neck, lol. Scott calls it the Hebrew something...

That is a cool shot. Hey Ian, you sure about him being with ESP when ALT came out?!?? I want to say that he was Jackson at that time? Memory fades etc. so I could be wrong, but that is my currect (bad) memory anyway.

I always liked that Soloist. First saw it in the S.O.D. Speak English or die vidz

Scott played a Rhoads before that, but he and Frankie were endorsed by ESP at the time of ATL. He used to use the old Eclipse when it was a Tele shape, and he also had a few Soloist style models.

Pretty sure I have the tour programme and the VHS and it's ESP all the way. The SoE tour programme has pics of him trashing the ESP Judge Dredd guitar and states something like "I always used my Jackson in the studio so I figured it was time to use it on stage too" but I think he still used ESP on that tour. Whatever, the PoT era 'Live Noise' video has him playing Jacksons again....
