I grew up with Doug, and we were close friends for many years. I am sure he built that guitar. He has always been a genius with Design. We used to swap equipment all the time. he loved to take things apart, and is a great photographer. I miss him. we had alot of fun when we were kids. Someday I hope to meet up again, but I am sure I will have to go to Europe to see him.

[@rickyricardo9917]

Hi Shane, it’s George Depetta from Manchester, hope all is well, really cool to watch Doug still ripping it up !

[@Malte-Micha]

W.A.S.P. doesnt tour USA any more. If you grew up with him im surew it would be easy to reach out to him, hes not like Blackie at all.

[@sadiedaniels2176]

He is freaking amazing!! 💜

[@cjbecker1683]

Very cool 👍

[@Lordhumongus]

Well... he's here! Did you get a chance to catch up or have you guys reconnected? I used to play in a band with Nick Hipa from As I Lay Dying. We went to school together. Lost contact when college started. One day I opened up Guitar World and there he was with Steve Vai. Our heroes. He lived all the things we dreamed about. Would love to catch up to him one day. I still shred. Doug is a phenomenal player.

[@sebastianmiranda5076]

Incredible performance. Such a high skilled interpretation

[@timothyweesner6286]

Interpretation? You do know he’s the guitarist in the current W.A.S.P. Lineup, right? I saw them three nights ago, 11,11,22… in Detroit with Armored Saint! Unbelievable show!!!

[@EgoExit]

I took lessons from him when I was like 12. He was and is the man!! Loved that guitar that lit up flashing colors.

[@Malte-Micha]

Do you still play today?? Are you willing to tour when touring season opens up?

[@4deuce31]

I used to go see Doug play at Bridges Cafe in East Windsor, CT in the Run21 days. He/they were an amazing band to watch. They gave us a huge show in tiny clubs for $5. Even though I've been playing bass for decades he is one of the reasons I started playing.

[@scatterbrain1420]

Holy shit 4 Deuce...I was at alot of those shows. I grew up right across the river in Windsor Locks. I became friends with Doug as we had mutual friends. He eventually started doing sound for The Savage Brothers Band, my good friends , also from W.L. Small world...

[@PaulyV56]

he / they..so woke lol

[@diljithayre9379]

Mesmerising I met Mr Blair in London the couple of years ago and is very humble and actually took time out to talk to us drunken idiots just before the concert we've got to the front still pissed couple of hours later while he was playing he looked down and gave as a nod and a wink and a smile while still playing nice guy proper gentleman hope to see you soon when you come back to the UK

[@nickgreen5829]

Doug is the best I’ve seen and I’ve seen them all

[@dennis8309]

Lol...Like who? I've seen Quiet Riot with Carlos, Pantera with Dime, and Pink Floyd with Gilmore, all better than this replacment guy, standing in Chris Holmes' place and playing what Kulick wrote...

[@SimonRazman]

[@RandomRetr0]

Beautifully done!!!!!!

[@EgoExit]

Doug u were my first guitar teacher in CT in the 90s. You could hear a tune and have it known in 5 minutes. Such talent. I still got your signed photo. Now seeing my kids take an interest is so special cause passing it down is what we do. Thanks for everything. Do u still have that guitar that lights up between the pickups? So badass.

[@Toadcrusher]

BRAVO!

[@SilverTounge85]

Didnt Doug do the 'Crimson Idol' tour back in 1992? Bob Kulick played the album I think, but Doug did the tour?

[@estefaniamorin5039]

That's right 🤗

[@midgetjohnholmes]

Who was the guitarist in the video...Doug? Or Bob?

[@mikescott5655]

@@midgetjohnholmes that’s Doug in the Video

[@sambopow]

Yeah wow - sounds great. That guitar is curious. No pickups on top half??? how does that work

[@weonboard9430]

Piezo pick up's in the saddles. Notice the two cables from the guitar.

[@cillian3]

The top half of the guitar is built to simulate a real accoustic guitar. Inside it is carved and have a pre amp inside. For more info, go on his Facebook page. It is full of infos about how his guitars are made.

[@Lordhumongus]

As much as I love Chris Holmes (top 5 for me) he couldn't nail this solo to save his or my life. At least I don't think so. I'm sure he could play it. But the feel is not in his wheel house. Be interesting to hear though

[@Champ9115]

Гитара это не его, видно как он мучает пальцы, заставляя их делать то что они не могут в принципе. В итоге они издают звуки умирающей старой коровы, которую хлещут кнутом, чтобы она развила скорость свыше 40-ка км/ч, при том что она не может быстрее 7 км/ч

[@smsmol1]

чего тут только не почитаешь)

[@Omerta_13]

Отвратительно

[@flashgordon9551]

Bad guitar Player.

[@jfender8023]

Awful ! Another three cowboy chord garbage. Playing out of key and quite sloppy copy of Gilmore 'Conf Numb' solo is funny to watch
