Intro

New here, old rotary user. From Southern California. Did my first tattoo at 16, now 33. First machine was an original rotary, home made with a pen and guitar string...lol. been using stealth for a few years, but just bought the Vivace, well see how that goes.

Welcome! The vivace will kick stealths butt lol like a pissed off Jeff Jones:)

Thank you. Hope its well worth the money.

A well designed high quality machine is always worth the money, in every one of its millions of stitches it will perform like a craftsman's tool should. And if you should happen to not like it, it will be easy to trade for another great machine here.

Was originally gonna go with new bishop, but decided on Vivace 3.5mm RCA

Welcome to the forum! If you have any ?'s on the Vivace, hit me up.

Welcome to the forum-please share some techniques you have found that work well with the stealths.;)

Welcome!! Any pics of That home made machine with pen and guitar string??

pen and guitar string! thats' OG! ;)

Thank you all. And sorry no pics...that was an old school way of tattooing and over 15 years ago. Rotaries have come a long way. As for the stealth, i liked it, it ran ok for only a few months though, then id toss it, i would get them for just $50. I ran it at 6-7 for shading and 9 for lining or script.
