Re: Dave got his gold "Tele" Starfield Cabriolet Back
It does suck. A beer buzz is the gateway to warm phone calls and reminiscing with old pals. This leads to wanting to feel something more and that usually is your drug of choice. A beer buzz is not enough. You're constantly searching for that next level. Then a night turns into a week of calling in sick, etc. I live it.nausearockpig wrote:God that would be awful, what a horrible way to live.

I don't think Dave ever drank even when he wasn't clean??
For me these days a beer buzz leads to cheeseburgers, pizza and ice cream.

Used to be that way but thats all in the passed. These days I vape some weed and a couple of glasses of whiskey and I'm good.

I'm that way too!! I can't even have a beer cause I'll go straight to the dope. I've been clean and sober for 2 and half years. And m fucking miserable lol!!
Re: Dave got his gold "Tele" Starfield Cabriolet Back
A lot of time helps a lot. For some people anyway...others, like you said, 1-2 drinks is a hell of a gamble
(And when I say a lot of time I mean 10+ years)

Re: Dave got his gold "Tele" Starfield Cabriolet Back
Sometimes not even time helps I was at a friends wedding and the father of the groom had been sober for like 17 years and had one glass of champagne, after about a 6 month bender he is now back on the wagon. Shit affects people in all kinds of different ways. Personally I like drying out for a month or two namely for health reasons but also because when I do have a drink I drink a lot less and get my buzz and my brisket.
Re: Dave got his gold "Tele" Starfield Cabriolet Back
tried to buy that guitar from someone more than once. the guy i was talking to kept it under his bed still in pieces. would love to have it still. also, i'm not completely sure it's a starfield. i'm pretty sure it was a custom job for dave specifically. a one off guitar. that's all a memory though.guysmiley wrote:Back in his possession 26 years later. Probably his most identifiable guitar from the Ritual era. You can see it in the Milan video. Probably a prototype for the first Starfield Cabriolet later made for Ibanez. It seems to have been refinished in yellow at some point after he smashed the guitar at Lolla.
good to see it's still around.

Ok, the images are not showing for me and I have googled "custom nothing's shocking ibanez, Navarro guitar" and every version of that I can think of. Wasn't there a twins Ibanez that was stolen after he had it for a NY minute? Was talking to my kiddo about gear and it came up.
Re: Dave got his gold "Tele" Starfield Cabriolet Back
I wonder where that thing is. Holy Grail shit right there.
