    Did EVH sell the frankenstrat to Carmen electra?

    Last night on Jimmy Kimmel live, Carmen electra said she bought EVH's guitar for her husband. She said he was a huge fan (note: WAS). Do you think she has the frankenstrat now? I'm sad if she does...he made that guitar produce some of the best rock songs ever. Poor bastard...

    OK, was she referring to one of the Charvel Frankenstrat REPLICAS? Can't see Ed parting with his baby, even though it's been retired for several years....:confused:

    lol...I wonder why she said she bought EVH's guitar. With the money she has it sounded like she atleast got one of those wolfies he had been using for a few years. Anyways thanks for the good news! If there ever is a reunion I think EVH might just take the Frankenstrat out of retirment for a while.

    Maybe Ed told her it was the original to get more money out of her, and sold her a replica...

    Keep quiet, she will never know.

    There is a story that he actually did sell the original Franky back in the 80's to Mick Mars of all people. Most probably bullshit, but still an interesting story all the same.

    Aha! Ok, so it's not a 'brand-new' neck..but certainly not the Kramer Banana-head that was on it in pics from recent years...

    As I say, it's only a rumour. However Ed didn't have just the 1 Franky. That much is known for certain (he had a number replica's made up of it for touring). For all we know that may be the original, or it may be one of his replicas.

    I cannot tell from such a dark pic?

    Shame to see such a fun axe that had not seen the light of day since Dave was in the band being played by some angry-assed, miserable and old wino...

    'Tis a damn shame...

    Just think, the angry old miserable fuck 'tis prolly playin' "Love Walks In" in that pic? From the nauseated look on his face, I'll bet he is.

    Oh, and DC...I think the replicas you're referring to are the Kramers EVH used on the 1984 and 5150 tours? Those just had the RBW paint-job, they were not true replicas...there's only ONE actual Frankie, and yes, he painted it red over the B&W paint scheme in the 80s when Hondo or somebody made a cheap copy with the original paint-job.....

    Not a Frankie replica. It was the 1984 tour back up guitar (a 5150 replica)

    Actually it was a pretty scabby Xmas present when you think about it (Not a lot thought there).
