I have a folder on my computer filled with guitar porn and a chunk of it dedicated to heavily modded guitars that I like. And this one does seem hack modded. What is with those extra cavities on the back, and the strange skunk stripe that goes down the back? The refinish also seems very amateur. Neat metal hardware for the time, though. Still, that there are cool examples doesn't mean it's not a shame for some bored jackass to start carving Eddy into some nice instrument.I really like this guitar too. It is cleanly modded and not hack, but arguably rather pointless and inelegant.

^a total bone head mod (unless the body caved in or something like some SGs do) but the guitar is still squarely in the would category.
