Stratovarius Community

it's not just the money..... there is no respect... and I can't understand people smashing their guitars on stage, just because they can afford it. Maybe its a dream of somebody to play on of those jimi hendrix strats, he burned at woodstock.... for me it seems like burning the dream of somebody.......

Yeah, the player makes a guitar sound great and not just the hardware. It's the technique and the emotions the you hear... no matter how good a guitar is, somebody who can't play the guitar will never be able to get a good sound out of it... :D now I'm not just looking forward to hear the new record...

I can't understand people smashing their guitars on stage or burn it like hendrix at woodstock.
A guitar is a instrument that should be respected and not burned. In my opinion it shows no respect for the instrument and the guy who crafted it.

I think the double bass drum, the solos and the solo battles between guitar und keyboard are nearly perfect. but the jari could play a little bit louder and Tk should try to sing just as high as he is able to sing live on stage..... but all in all I think the music of Stratovarius is nearly perfect....

I don't know where to get such a pick, but I if someone knows I also want one..

what about your new guitars,Timo?
maybe you would be so nice to tell us something about the guitars you ordered.

All The best,

Slayer

wow...sounds great...
I'm looking forward to the new record and the next tour..

Timo, there is also lots of fun without alcohol, just take it easy...

yeah ESP gutiars are great....
I've got the LTD F-250, ok.. it's a 'cheap' guitar... but I don't have the money to buy an original ESP..........


All the best,

Does anyone got some facts on TTs life??? I want to make a presentation on Stratovarius and specially on Timo Tolkki.. But my teacher said I need some facts on his life.... his influences.... and so on.... and I don't know what to do... tolkki.com is offline.... and on stratovarius.com are no really...

when I'm right TT also uses e.g. Gibson acoustic & Ibanez for recording...
maybe thats the reason why he's no ESP artist.....

Slayer

for me it looks like a gold emg in the bridge position and a silver at the neck..

but maybe my eyes just play tricks on me.^^

Why aren't there some pictures... would be really great....

Slayer

Infinite is my favorite, just got something i can't explain....

Isn't this Tribute just recorded by Italian Bands?

TT's voice is really amazing.......
But can't think of myself playing the guitar and singing at the same time, thats really hard.. sometimes I try to.... but with while playing a rithm or a solo on the guitar it becomes really hard....
.... so I just can say... great work...
