updating legacy status

Since Morello is the only one who plays it, and its a uinque guitar on its own, shouldnt the Arm The Homeless recieve the "Iconic" status?

same goes for most of evh's guitars and Michael Anthony's Jack Daniels..

GEAR:
  • Fender Player II Precision Bass
  • Yamaha P-45 B
  • Focusrite Scarlett 2i2

I asked the admins about iconic status and how that works awhile back. I don't think I got an asnwer on that one yet. It's something they've been experimenting with over the last year or so, I think.

I don't disagree with any of your picks. I mean, there are a lot of instruments I'd put ahead of MA's Jack Daniel's bass, but I was a kid in 1984... I get it.

GEAR:
  • Roland TR-808 Rhythm Composer
  • Roland SH-101
  • Roland TR-909 Rhythm Composer

I brought it up again... and the jack daniels bass is certainly iconic to people of our age. I was never a van halen fan, my best friend is though, but I would recognize the frankenstrats and the jack daniels from a half mile away. ICONIC like the red special!

GEAR:
  • Roland Juno-6
  • Gibson SG Standard
  • Vox AC30 Guitar Combo Amp

agree. though, its going to be an "our" which excludes me, i only turn 17 this month

just a big Van Halen fan. my dad still has his 1984 record from 1984

GEAR:
  • Fender Player II Precision Bass
  • Yamaha P-45 B
  • Focusrite Scarlett 2i2

CRAZY! I was pretty young when 1984 came out, but I remember panama being inescapable and its still one of my guilty pleasures along with hot for teacher. I could be your dad, my son is almost 13 and I was in my mid 30s when he was born. Apparently I can make the JD bass iconic now, I'll take care of it right now.

GEAR:
  • Roland Juno-6
  • Gibson SG Standard
  • Vox AC30 Guitar Combo Amp

Update: There has been some progress.

GEAR:
  • Roland TR-808 Rhythm Composer
  • Roland SH-101
  • Roland TR-909 Rhythm Composer
