Maybe it's the punk rawk in me, but I like to see a guitar get a good smashing every now and again. There's just something iconic about that kind of destruction--like the London Burning cover, or Hendrix's burning axe, or Cobain's onstage freakouts. Eddie Van Halen seems to disagree, however. The fingertappin' phenom recently designed a guitar with the help of a medical tool company that, apparently, is indestructable. It's called the Wolfgang, after his son, and it retails for $3,000. And you can be assured of its quality, because Eddie himself tried to break one on Van Halen's last tour to no avail. I really hope that footage ends up on Youtube sometime soon--something tells me that a guitar getting the best of Van Halen would be worth seeing. [Contactmusic]
