This project started out when my friend gave me his old kiddie guitar because he didn't have the time or desire to fix it. As soon as I got it, I disassembled it completely, then sanded off the original red color and went to work painting it in true Eddie Van Halen fashion. With some patience and a steady masking hand, I was able to reasonably replicate the design on Eddie's guitar. Ironically, this guitar sounds horrible and its small size makes it nearly unplayable, but it makes a nice wall ornament and conversation piece :)
