Hypothetical,....If you could pick one of Eddie's guitar to be given to you by the man himself which would you pick?
Ed plays some sick! guitars so it's kinda tough for me but I'd have to go with the classic Black Eddie Tele....The Black Schecter PT Tele

or the yellow one....

Honorable mention: Ed's current ax of choice; the fender sparkle tele or the gold gibson SG from the riot act days.

    I'll take the black tele of those two, but i actually like the SG better then all of them.

    Of course the one i would really like is Mike's Fender Strat is it a 57?

    :D

    i'd take that new teal one he was playing for the vic and lolla.

    it was shiny
    Wouldn't it be funny if the world ended in 2010, with lots of fire?

    when did schecter quit making normal looking guitars?? everything they make these days looks so heavy metal!

    the guitar hes playing on N4U on SNL looks to be a genuine fender tele... id take that over the schecter, sgs, and that new fangled blue racing stripe one hes got....

    or his lil mini tele uke would be cool :D

    I like the one with the black gaffer's tape. Although I 'd take the piano, any day of the week, hands down.

    yeah he had it in copenhagen alrite. used it on betterman, but not on all songs that nite. not a major fan of it myself, the black tele just beats everything hands down for me.

    that or his tele-shaped uke

    Schecter had to stop making the telecasters that way because Fender sued them over the design of the headstock.....

    and Ed smashed the fender (skateboarding is not a crime) he played on SNL at the 95 Soldier field show.....i think the guy who caught part of the smashed guitar neck used to post here (maybe still does)...

    That thing is breathtaking. :o I remember seeing it premire on the big screen in Nijmegen and there being this collective gasp amongst the crowd. What a gorgeous guitar!! The picture doesnt seem to do it nearly enough justice. It literally glows in person, doesnt it? :o

    Yeah. I'll take one of those too please. ;)


    Aww and the frickin teal SG has been and always will be one of my favs. If Ed could somehow resurrect it (with those magical powers of his:p ) I think I'd have to take that one instead. I loved that guitar. ((RIP)) *sniff sniff*

    Now THAT would be badass.
    I wouldn't mind having Ed's black Rickenbacker. Maybe the Martin...or even that tele he uses that's all sparkly/looks like it's half made of tape.

    I would love an autographed ukelele. Or to be one of those lucky fuckers in the audience who catches a harmonica or a tambourine...
