Classic Axes: Edward Van Halen's Frankenstrat


The Frankenstrat is Eddie's attempt to combine a Gibson and Fender.  It's made from an ash Stratocaster body with a routing that Eddie made to fit in a Gibson PAF humbucking bridge pickup, with a single coil neck pickup. The neck pickup was simply for decoration and was never actually wired with the humbucker, due to Eddie's inability to wire the switch properly.
