Eddie Van Halen


Rock icon Eddie Van Halen has created an indestructible new guitar with a top medical tool company. The Wolfgang, named after the rocker’s son and Van Halen bandmate, features custom-made stainless steel frets and metal accessories. Eddie knows his new instrument is unbreakable, because he tried to tra on the last Van Halen world tour. He tells CNN, "During the last show, I actually tried to break a Wolfgang, and it wouldn’t break. I picked it up and I couldn’t break the damn thing. I threw it up in the air, and later put it out in the rain. I picked it up half an hour later, and it was still in tune. It p**sed me off." Van Halen’s new guitar retails for $3,000.
