Eddie Van Halen Frankenstein Replica
 

I thought this was an interesting video. EVH talks about his guitars (and the "1st" yellow & black) which Dimebag Darrell was buried with. He said the guitar was is in Dimes arms.

Edited: There are only 300 replicas made. One was on ebay for $13,500 and the reserve wasn't met.

Great video-

It's crazy to me that collectors will pay that kind of money for what was basically a parts guitar.

:confused:

Yeah I trip out every time I watch that vid, they had one hanging in GC by my house for a good while. It didn't sell "Of course" so they had to send it back.

Maybe if I was really, really rich! :smilez:

the have the Red and black tape model of eddies guitar a a music shop here and there asking $25000.00 for it

Re: Eddie Van Halen Frankenstein Replica
 

Insane. It'd be the proverbial cold day in heck before I'd pay such an inflated price for a "replica," I don't care how few of them were/are made.

Even if I could afford one.

Of course, it doesn't help that those are some butt-ugly guitars to begin with.

I know what you mean, the bridge pick-up is even falling out against the strings, If you love art that much buy a real classic guitar

Re: Eddie Van Halen Frankenstein Replica
 

I'd still like to get the SRV-1 or the Yngwie replica. That EVH replica is just plain ugly to me.

$13,500 can buy a lot of beautiful guitars.

--If you were to make your 'own' frankenstein, what combination of guitars parts would it be?

Me? I'm happy with a good ol' Les Paul.

Do you happen to live in Pittsburgh?


They had one hanging there for a while, and ended up sending it back after having it out for a LONG time.
