In celebration of the late Genius and God Edward Van Halen's birthday last Friday, someone ordered this little beauty.....

Oooohhh I can't fucking wait to play that thing.

And this bad boy arrived on Tuesday. Been playing it practically non stop since.

The EVH "D-Tuna" on it is a work of genius by Eddie Van Halen. Playing away in E Standard then just pull it out and boom you are in Drop D tuning. Love it. Gonna order a couple more for my other guitars fitted with Floyd Rose whammy's.

Sounds well Cool! So how does that work then? - Don't the strings go out of tune easier?

Nope. This video will explain it better than I can. It is a work of genius, invented by Eddie himself:

The only limit is it won't work with a "floating" Floyd Rose whammy, only a body leveled or "blocked" one.

Oh! I seeeeeee. In-Fuckin-Genius.

Eddie truly was & is a God of The Guitar.

Even i might manage that....despite a little finger that acts of its own accord, certainly not going where i'd like it do, and an index finger determined to twang the living crap outta the B string no matter what the bar chord.

yeah im not 100%, im following a tutorial from a 1989 edition of Kerrrrrang.........of course searching online these days for help with guitar tekkers is basically just gonna return you 100000 results all telling you your way is wrong and click here to lean in 20 minutes what took said guitarist 25 years etc etc

Anyhow not to worry, is my own guitar which im happy to just look at....i wont spoil it by actually picking it up. But it is nice to hold and its neck is possibly the smooooothest thing ive ever run my fingers over.....oooo er
