    Replica Frankenstrat Website

    Hey guys, I'm sure one of you have this in your bookmarks...


    There was a site dedicated to the 25000 dollar Frankenstrat, where you could zoom in to images, etc.... It had promo info and it gave details like the 1971 guitar attached..... cigarette burns, dings, nicks, scratches, etc....


    I really would like to visit the page again.

    this is the only one I'm familiar with
    From Eddie Van Halen comes the latest musical instrument gear designed by the rock 'n' roll god himself and inspired by years of chasing tone.


    Is this it or did you see another?

      If you want to go to a killer Frankie replica site

      Go to www.frankenstraat.com

      This guy offers some great stuff.

      I'll probably buy the shark guitar kit myself in a couple months.

          That is a cool site. He knows his stuff. The shark is easy enough to do, you should make one from scratch and take the chunk out yourself. I've made three of them in the past and it is by far the easiest of the EVH guitars to make.

            For those without a chisel, the Frankenstrat body he sells is a killer deal. He's already created the pickup route for you.

                  In reference to building a shark guitar from scratch.

                  ....actually, I ended up building quite a guitars few from scratch, because I was frustrated by not being able to find a cool parts supplier.


                  Some how I found out about his site on My Space a month ago.

                  I'm so impressed by the people on the forums, the product, etc.


                  I'm going to just give him my business!!


                  ..you are right I could probably do it by scratch but, I think he has a good thing going for guitar players, I'm going to do my part to support it.


                  ...so was www.frankenstraat.com what you were looking for ??

                      He doesn't any more, he just sells the kits now. He used to make them and paint them though when I bought mine off him

                              Use Northern Ash not Swamp Ash for that massive VH tone.

                              If you use Northern Ash for the Shark Guitar.

                              Be sure to get an OSHA approved back-brace..you'll need it!
