Heavy rock and metal......Tony Iommi of Black Sabbath. They practically invented heavy metal.

But Tony Iommi hit the scene in 1970. The true roots of metal had already been sown quite a few years earlier from around the 1967 period. Black Sabbath just pulled all these aspects together (especially Tony Iommi) but I'm specifically asking for a heavy rock guitarist from the 1960s and not 1970s.

If you insist....

Threeway between Steppenwolf (forgot the guitarist), Jimmy Page and Deep Purple's Ritchie Blackmore.

Which is hardly surprising as they had 4 different lead guitarists between 1967 & 1975.

Yeah I dont think thats an actual "real" gun. They were used in the military as learning devices for training. That particular big gun in the picture could be from the 40s? I think the military had most of them destroyed years ago. Some were given out during that time. There is still a few of them around here and there.

I assumed Po was talking about the guy's obviously superimposed head.

He must have been so impressive if you can't think of his name. I'm guessing you might be referring to John Kay the frontman or Michael Monarch here. As for Steppenwolf in general, I don't think they were that good a band at all.

A man with an oversized gun stateside, nothing wrong with that!

You normally keep this type of stuff lying around in your garden shed then?
