Mike B

Guys -
Great site!!!
Mike
has been an Yngwie fan since 1986. "I saw
Yngwie in Concert in 1991
in Cincinnati and got a
guitar pick from his roadie".
My favorite Yngwie album is Trilogy. I play thru a Vox Valvetronix
modeling head and a 4x10 Marshall Cabinet. I have built 2 scalloped
guitars myself but sold them to buy other guitars. Play Loud |

Steve & Greta M.
I've been hooked
on Yngwie ever since I heard his first album in 1984. I once ran a
BBS called Rising Force and after the Internet arrived I went online
in 1998 with a fan tribute web site called
Yngwie Malmsteen 100% that I'm still running today. I
started my professional career as a Computer Technician 20 years ago
and today I'm a Windows Server Administrator. In my spare time I
play my electric guitar at home and try to teach myself anything
from Classic Rock to Yngwie!
I've been married to Greta for
18 years and we have two daughters Stefanie (15) and Athena (10) who
were both born on the same day! Stefanie plays the violin very well
and sometimes I get her to play along with me on one of Yngwie's
classical interludes. We've seen Yngwie play live whenever he came
to Baltimore during his many tours. Greta and I even got to meet
Yngwie (with Rudy Sarzo and Joakim Svalberg) on his bus during the
Attack tour! It was very late (after 3am) so you can see how tired
Yngwie looked after pouring out all his energy on stage with a long
show.

Steve & Yngwie!
It is very nice Yngwie takes
time to meet with the fans whenever he can. We are looking forward
to seeing him play again in Baltimore this December on his Unleash
The Fury tour.
I got turned onto the
RandyCiak.com Hi Tech
Guitar site when Dean started making his two
Yngwie "Duck" guitar replicas. His projects
fascinate me because you can really see the care
and attention to detail he uses from start to finish.
Both Randy and Dean have a really great site. I like the guitar
video lessons and the Guitar Girls are a
cool site feature too that I enjoy. Oh, and Greta says thanks for
her official Guitar Girl tee shirt!

Randy & Dean
I love this site!
I've been following the site for a
long time and really enjoy the
online lessons and guitar projects. I was first
inspired to play the
guitar by my dad who is into
classic rock. Shortly after I grabbed
his Yngwie
cd's and almost immediately
started shredding along with Malmsteen.
My uncleRobert Valdes , who is an amazing
also has inspired me to shred.

My influences include Rusty Cooley and
Yngwie Malmsteen. I currently use a Jackson Rhoads V guitar and
delrin 1.5 mm pics. I'm also in the process of purchasing a sick
Marshall TSL 60 head.
Thanks for keeping shred alive
