| Product Name: | EVH Striped Series '78 Eruption Electric Guitar, White with Black Stripes Relic |
| Product Description: | About EVH Striped '78 Eruption On the cover of Van Halen's 1978 eponymous debut album, Eddie Van Halen thrusts his black-and-white striped Strat-style guitar towards the camera as if he's showing you the future. He played this guitar on his unprecedented and mind-blowing "Eruption" guitar solo, thus its nickname, and almost immediately, this monumental instrument became a timeless icon, symbolic of a paradigm shift in guitar-driven rock and roll. Back when this trailblazing album first appeared, nobody had ever seen or heard a guitar like that because no such guitar ever existed. What was this? You couldn't buy one. That's because he made it himself. The 22-year-old Eddie Van Halen had the mind of not only a great musician, but also of an innovative inventor-a constant tinkerer who was always messing with his gear. Eddie would say it was out of necessity as no off-the-shelf guitar had the features he needed to really do his job and realize his full potential. So, he took matters into his own capable hands - refretting the neck, installing a humbucking pickup which he potted in paraffin wax, as well a single master volume knob (famously labeled as "Tone"), brass nut and tailpiece from a '58 Strat, cutting out and mounting his own homemade black and of course, coming up with iconic striped motif. The all-new EVH Striped Series '78 Eruption guitar combines many of those famed mods along with modernized features and a relic treatment. The Stratocaster-style body sports Eddie's famed white-and-black-striped paint job and has been paired to a quartersawn maple neck with a hand-rubbed satin urethane back finish. The 12"-16" compound radius maple fingerboard with 22 jumbo frets was designed for fast and furious playing styles with maximum comfort, while a heel-mount truss rod wheel makes for time-saving neck adjustments. A single EVH Wolfgang humbucking bridge pickup provides classic Eddie Van Halen guitar tone - from crystal cleans to fat and rich mids and lows, while the brass nut and six-saddle vintage Fender Stratoca |

Actually, purists wouldn't want a Floyd Rose on this, since Eddie didn't use one with this guitar.
And he definitely put a floyd on it. Right around the time when he put a coat of red paint on it.

That's still not this version of the guitar, which is what I was talking about. I never said that he never used a Floyd. I said he didn't ON THIS GUITAR, which he didn't. Also, a purist is a purist. There aren't degrees to it. Your comment is pretty much pointless.
