Seldom
if ever in the history of rock – in the history of guitar playing, for
that matter – can monumental change be attributed to one person; to a
single guitarist whose own individual contributions amount to nothing
short of an astounding re-imagining of the instrument's possibilities
and whose playing abilities and innovations are so utterly dazzling as
to be considered truly revolutionary. Such is the case with Edward Van
Halen.
This limited edition pre-owned replica pays homage to an
icon that remains perhaps the world's most instantly recognizable
guitar. Every last nick, ding, scratch, and cigarette burn has been
faithfully replicated so as to be virtually indistinguishable from the
original, including Eddie's iconic red-white-and-black striped paint
job. Other unique features include screw-eye strap hooks, a 1971 quarter
by the bridge, masking tape along the lower bout, and reflectors on the
back. The neck is an unvarnished, wide/thin shape, cosmetically worn to
feel like the original, and the Frankenstein Humbucker pickup sounds
like nothing else.
The guitar comes with a great set of extras
including an Anvil flight case, certificate of authenticity signed by
Eddie, a letter from Eddie, signed 8x10 photo, a DVD showing the making
of the Frankenstein guitar, and EVH picks. This instrument is in overall
excellent condition.
