For non guitar dorks....

You couldnt really buy an guitar with Eddies colors up until about ten years ago. You had to make one.

Then Eddie comes out with a new line of amps and guitars through Fender. You could finally get a quality Frankenstein for a decent price. Hence the Striped Series.

Rick and I are referring to the Bumblebee, the guitar he used on Van Halen 2 and also buried with Dimebag from Pantera.

I always thought it was the coolest looking guitar he had. The original was made by Charvel and had a black headstock like Rick's.
