Yamaha Adds 'Sting' To Matthias Jabs
BUENA PARK, CA Matthias Jabs has rocked the world playing guitar with German-based hard rockers The Scorpions since joining in 1979. Chopping rhythms and ballads into hot-rocking slices, Jabs helped catapult the band to superstar status with such hits as "Blackout," "Big City Nights" and "Rock You Like a Hurricane." To further fuel his musical sting both on and off stage, Jabs currently uses the Yamaha CPX15 Handcrafted Acoustic/Electric guitar in tandem with Yamaha's DG130H Digital Guitar Amphead.

Drawing inspiration from the oceans of the world, the Yamaha CPX15 is the first in a line of thematically-designed acoustic electrics. Handcrafted with the finest woods and materials, the entire Compass Series features solid Spruce tops, Ebony fingerboards, and a unique preamp system that includes a System 45 preamp Piezo pick-up and condenser microphone.
The Compass Series feature a natural finish; Rosewood back and sides; gold tuners; and a nautical design that creates an ideal platform to launch your acoustic odyssey.
When 'Loud, Louder, Loudest' is the phrase of the game, the Yamaha DG130H Digital Guitar Amphead will blast across concert arenas and stadiums. Similar to the street lethal features of the DG80-112, with a 130-watt head and articulate amp models and motorized chicken head knobs, the DG130H also includes 128 patch locations, MIDI effects control, XLR output with speaker simulation, effects send/return with blend control, MIDI IN/OUT, extension speaker jacks for connecting external cabinets. Slap this into a Yamaha 4x12 Speaker Cabinet and you have a dangerous combination that will "rip the rooftops off!"
Just in time to launch their latest album, "Bad For Good: The Very Best of Scorpions" Jabs and The Scorpions have embarked on a three month, hard-rocking tour of the U.S.
