I got to play that guitar when I was at Tommy’s shop (Music Zoo) a few years ago. Awesome guitar. I built a replica of it too. Of course I did lol

Cool stuff..

EDDIE’S fingers aren’t fingers they are muscle-powered pistons that hammer guitar strings to the fretboard with the force of a rivet gun”.

I’ve got a replica of it too. Its a great guitar (the original)

I didnt build this one, but its still cool.
I still need to drill the 2 extra holes in the neck plate too…
