My reading comprehension is fine and I know what you intended to say but it still came off as an insult.

Timely bump. I'm jumping on the exploitation bandwagon with these little beuties. This was holding my garage door open for a year or so and I figured someone out there will appreciate the worn look. So I listed it on ebay.

Yes - that's Doug playing my $24,990 guitar. Being the modest man that he is, he doesn't mention in the youtube clip that he had never even held a guitar before I started rolling that tape.

That's just how much of a difference Van Halen stripes (when expetly done) can improve your playing.

With a "Tone" knob? Sensational. The creative design team are currently working on other EVH inspired household goods, mind if I suggest this to them?

Oh, I didn't make it myself. Found it on eBay. No tone knob though. Ed has been quite the merchandiser in the last few years. But I wonder if his branding would do a little better if he bothered to put out an album more than once every 5-7 years. He certainly has years worth of material recorded and collecting dust at home.
