Yes... I'd have to say I would be struggling to get my game face on if that place had tinted windows and I walked through the door and saw that corner. So what planet is this store on Scottie??? :thumbsup

Okay, lets make this interesting:
If you could take one item....just one from this room.....what would it be? And since I think a lot of people would choose the black Ripley in the corner, let's remove that from the equation. I don't want to be anti Kramer or anything, but I think I would take that mostly hidden Plexi halfstack.

Doh! that's two items......okay the Plexi head.

Who's next?

Man tough- I want the stack, the Wolfgang (either) and the Les Paul sunburst. Since I have the functional equivant if the strippers I guess I really need the 12 axe stand :scratchhe :scratchhe

Think I'd go for the 1984 paintjob or the Hot For Teacher, since everyone has a 5150. :)

Fascinating...that is a very logical statement. After further analysis, I find that you are, indeed, correct. :-|

You have very little to worry about, as I have lost my shuttle license for flying under the influence of Romulan ale... :toast

One day, one day....


I am not sure if I have seen that exact one, but I have seen a website that has tons of replicas. I think the guy's name is Scott Smith. Here is a link to his site:

http://www.vanhalenguitars.com/

If the guitars in the original post are not the same collection, it is surely someone who has the same passion for Eddie's guitars.

Here are a couple of shots from his webpage:

Did anyone notice the Roswell Rhodes Jackson? I wonder if that was one of the rare original all aluminum ones.

sure Eddie was great, but do people need to have a replica of every guitar he ever played?

If I could take one for free, It'd be a VHII guitar

This may sound odd, but I would take the butterscotch tele in the middle of the floor rack. Always wanted one of those. :thumbsup

although I wouldn't turn down anything in that room!!
