Van Halen’s guitar takes spotlight in Smithsonian
It’s really no surprise when guitar legend Eddie Van Halen wins another award, but it seems that now his success is rubbing off on his belongings.
The guitar that Van Halen played with during the band’s 2007-08 tour with David Lee Roth will soon get its own spotlight at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History.
The red, white and blue guitar named ‘Frank 2’ is an exact replica of the famous ‘Frankenstein’ guitar that Van Halen played with for more than 30 years. After its retirement in 2006, Van Halen switched over to ‘Frank 2.’
