    Michael Schenker is a living legend. I was very fortunate to meet UFO when the “Force It” album came out. I brought my album to a show and all the members of UFO signed it. Phil Mogg, Michael Schenker, Pete Way, and Andy Parker, It is one of my most prized possessions.

      A legend indeed. My favorite all time guitarist. I had the surprise chance meeting with him at a bar the same night I saw him live once. Drank 3or 4 beers with him and Robin McAuley. Chatted music for bout an hour.

    An absolute Legend of rock music. Many famous metal guitarists of the 80s and 90s have very high regards for this Man. He seems to have overcame his trouble past and is looking better with age.
    Congratulations on a great career MS!

    His attitude and outlook is SO positive now. He's very healthy and happier than ever in these last years. Somehow, he's found it, peace and understanding in where he belongs in the world. I wish we all had that!

    Saw Michael Schenker Fest live in 2019... never seen a happier guitar god... and WHAT a player he is! At his age, to play 2.5 to 3 hours is a feat in and of itself. And I agree with another poster that he blew off Jimi Hendrix's guitar.. not interested in the past and/or any of the memorabilia... He just loves what he does and he is more of an innovator than anything else. His work on the Strangers in the Night album alone was stunning.... ROCK ON MICHAEL!

    Guitars are just tools, Michael never idolized them or collected them and during his Gibson years he had no more than a couple of Flying V to be played , period. He's truly the real deal, he doesn't care about any super advanced equipment, he needs just an amplifier and a wah pedal, the magic has always been in his hands.

    I have been a fan & have seen him play since 1978 & I have never understood the comments from people who say he is the most underrated guitar player of all time, at no time that I can remember that he was not in the conversations of greatest guitar players of all time over the years, how can he be underrated when his influence has Inspired so many including the people that say he's the most underrated player of all time?

    Saw MSG at Wolverhampton Civic Hall in 1981, Reading Rock Festival in 1982, Bristol Colston Hall in 1982, and London Kentish Town in 2018.....with the same group of friends. His music has been one of the soundtracks of my life and I'm grateful.

    Michael is so much fun to watch on stage. I have seen him in UFO in the 70's and the reunion they did as well as MSG and a killer acoustic set he did with Robin McAuley. Thank you for your hard work and dedication to your music and your fans Michael!

    He is MARSHALL 😎🤘

      And Marshall started as Fender clones with local electronic components they had.
      And Fender started from bass amps.
      But amidst all of this I prefer Laney amps, they have this unique tone and very heavy.

      @@mrfairact8662 I don’t know, collectors spend a lot of money on guitars like that. So its got to have Providence to back up the sell. Jimi had a lot of strats and the 70s wasn’t that long ago to have good providence. So a lot of them are really out there.

      One of his friends from childhood- Uli Jon Roth, who replaced him in Scorpions in the early 70s - has one, so it's not really a novelty to him.
      He has also said that guitars are just tools to him, he has no real attachment to them and very little appreciation of what happened outside his own sphere.

    Michael Schenker is one of the greatest rock guitar gods ever!!!! I think he is one of the most influencial guitar players in the World. He is among this SMALL group of influencial people like Van Halen, Uli Jon Roth, Ace Frehley, Hendrix, Vaughn, etc

      Never heard Ace Frehly and Uli Jon Roth in the same sentence before. Doesn't make any sense. Kiss is for preteen boys and nostalgic adults, could not play their instruments very well but put on a good show. Theatre yes, talented musicians, hell no.

    MS!!! One of the most influential yet underrated guitar players ever. People say he is odd or eccentric because the way he introduces himself via high five and not shake hands. I get it. Kerry King did an interview one time saying, guys shake your hand and think they need to have a strong, firm handshake. However, that does affect a guitar players hand. Michael has been around forever, I’m sure it has happened to him in the past. I would be more than happy to give MS a high 5!!!

    If I could ever reach Michael with a message, it would be this. As a fan of music, your contribution is tops on how my love of guitar has lasted over 45 years. Having said that, thank you MIchael for coming to do a show in White Marsh Maryland in 2012,so I could see you in person at House of Rock. My music treasure is like GOLD from being able to see and hear you play if it was only that one time for the rest of my life.
