Eddies New Charvels Already On Ebay

I thought the Ernie Ball music man fit him and his image. But the Peavey's never really suited him.

The Music Man was a cool custom guitar for sure. He sold out with Peavey. I'm sure it's still a nice guitar. I like the one he is playing on the tour. The flat black is cool. Needs some stripes though. I have a Music Man. Beat to shit ! I don't really play anymore but it looks good in the living room ! Lol.

I'm gonna end up displaying it on a wall with a frame that I'll build around it. The plans I have are to place the signed 1984 album with Eddie's, Alex's, and Mike's signature on it inside, along with the Diver Down album that Dave signed. There will be a few back stage passes from the early 80's shows thrown in there also. Once its done I'll post a picture. I've played it once but will not again. I'm no Eddie Van Halen.

Don't ever clean it. Eds fingerprints are on it ! Lol.

Hmmm....

I thought it was odd it they're only using two springs on the Floyds, but I'm noticing in the few instances where they show rear shots of the guitars seems like they have FU Trem Stopper/Stabilizers installed.



Would make total sense, and you could get away with (using .09s) two springs and a D-Tuna, dive-only.
Here's my set-up for .10 - .52s... this is one of the ones I usually have set up to float, but I like being able to lock it down for re-strings and maintenance.


Just installed one in my oldest Charvel mutt last night for .10-.52 dive-only and a D-Tuna, used 3 springs.
