🕰 A Glimpse into the Past 🕰
Crafted in March 1993, this guitar, initially listed as "Guitar Van Halen Purple Translucent," might have undergone a transformation to its patriotic look. With a maple neck, basswood body, and signature DiMarzio humbuckers, it reflects Eddie Van Halen's meticulous craftsmanship. On July 1st, 1993, during an encore at Molson Park in Barrie, Ontario, Eddie surprised the audience by unveiling this guitar, creating an unforgettable Canada Day tribute.
