Eddie Van Halen's Frankenstein is one of the most iconic electric guitars of all time. Built, upgraded, and heavily modified over the late 1970s and early 1980s, the guitar is emblematic of Eddie's genius both as a player and as a visionary of the instrument.
That said, the guitar is by no means a dream to play – according to Eddie's son, Wolfgang Van Halen, it has its fair share of shortcomings.
