[SN EVH2116869] USED EVH / Striped 78 Eruption Relic White with Black Stripes [12]
This model recreates the guitarāfeaturing a white body with black stripesāthat Eddie Van Halen is holding on the cover of VAN HALENās debut album, *VAN HALEN* (Japanese title: *The Fuse of Fire*).
This iconic guitar was customized numerous times by Eddie himself, driven by his relentless commitment to playability and his spirit of exploration; it is known as the āEruptionā because it was used to perform the unprecedented and groundbreaking guitar solo of the same name.
It features a basswood body with white and black striped paint, a quarter-sawn maple neck and fingerboard with 22 fretsācharacterized by its large headstockāand is equipped with a brass nut and jumbo frets.
It is packed with Eddieās signature touches, such as the volume knob labeled āTONE,ā a design later adopted for MUSICMANās signature models.
While it does have the original "relic" finishāincluding fine scratches, numerous dents, peeling paint, and tarnished hardwareāit shows very little actual wear from use.
It has been fully serviced and cleaned at our repair center, and playability is excellent. st
