I'm 32 and everything I get a guitar in the mail from Sweetwater I sit like you. Like a very excited kid opening up his presents on Christmas day. When I'm in my 60s. I imagine I'll still be doing the same. Rock on man. I'm waiting for my kramer striker to arrive.
Yeah these replca's from China usually all look great but just know the hardware and electronics will need to be replaced. For me, that's perfectly fine on these "boutique" type guitars, it's about the paint jobs. I don't mind upgrading guitars anyway, it's kinda fun when you turn these cheap guitars into something really great
i bought all new stuff for it but nothing fits. the chinese caftsmanship is awful. dont buy from china. me and my family got corona virus after the unboxing.
Chris LINK there’s no way that guitar gave him coronavirus, with the amount of time it takes to ship from China, the virus would’ve died on the surface of the guitar, it was just sitting in the packaging, it has nothing to do with China or the guitar, he or one of his family members, touched something or breathed in something that caused it, the guitar didn’t do it, the packaging could have done it from the mail person as well but not the guitar or China.

You're Lucky and get great one, but there's thousend of them on Aliexpress. Would you post a link to the guitar, or Just give us a seller name? Thank you
Your right. I’ve scuffed it up a bit and put an EVH Floyd Rose tremolo on it. Now it’s been treated like Eddie Vanhalen treated his guitars so I’ve messed with it enough to where it stays in tune and plays pretty good.
mine wasnt well made. im glad that you had better made guitars and a better experience. im not positive my covid came from that guitar but it sure was suspicious to me. personally i will stick with USA made or made in Japan or korean or made in mexico. i wont knowingly buy anything made in china anymore. congradulations on your purchases. i hope they bring you lots of enjoyment. as much as i payed they shouldve been comparable to a 1500$ american made guitar but it wasnt even comparable to a 100$ cheapest strat beginner guitar. mine was total trash fire wood bought from DHgate online. i recommend to stay away from that sight.
I stay away from them I had really bad experiences with that seller or sellers Allie express however much better and they always got back to me showing me pics of details I asked for I’m sorry for ur bad experience best thing to do is read their customers feed back and the stores ratings
Never buy a fake EVH Kramer 5150 from China. It’s complete garbage. I tried to fix this pile of crap but it’s beyond repair that I can do. I bought a real Floyd Rose tremolo and it doesn’t fit their fake Floyd Rose tremolo. So I put the real Floyd Rose tremolo on my EVH 5150 guitar.
You know why it doesn't fit a real Floyd rose? Funnily enough the holes are drilled for the Floyd rose copy which has different dimensions to avoid copy right So duh it won't fit a Floyd rose Now do you know how much say it is to fix this?? Fill in the pivot pole holes with wood, matchsticks and glue, sand it back, re drill the holes at the correct scale length position and width needed to fit the original teen, and wham bam you have a great Floyd rose on an average guitar We all know these are average, but they are perfect if you wanna make it great because get a good stable one with good solid wood and construction and then you can make into a great guitar It's clear you are clueless about building guitars we are asking you for more demonstration and examples of the guitar not some bullshit about Corona virus
@@Notinserviceij sorry bud your wrong I’ve already fixed myself. Your clueless. I did none of what you said and I fixed it. As for coronavirus it’s true but it’s no more than just an average cold. But thanks for your input.
@@Notinserviceij and I’ve already made a video with the fixed guitar that stays in perfect tuning even after I dive bomber like crazy because I fixed it right and it has an EVH Floyd Rose tremolo on it now. But thanks for your sarcastic input.
I still can’t believe that if you buy a real Frankenstrat you don’t get a case included . I payed 1400 for mine and was shocked when it turned up from the factory in a cardboard box with polystyrene packing .
I bought one and relicized it and hung it on the wall in the great room as a tribute to EVH, it looks fantastic! I would say they look great as far as art goes, but for playing I would spend the money and get a good quality one or build one yourself.
i actually fixed it quite well. i did what EVH wouldve done and i really surprised myself. its not pretty but its functionally perfect for what i expect from a guitar.
I really want one of these.... how bad is it? I know you called it “firewood”.... that bad? How much is a real EVH version? Gonna make a video on your real EVH guitar?
I bought mine used from guitar center for 650$ I will probably make a video soon when the inspiration hits. hopefully pretty soon. Ive gotta find some free time though.
whatever you do dont buy one from china. i bought real floyd rose and it doesnt fit. the neck locking nut was just put on with cheap wood screws. i also got corona virus from the unboxing and my whole family got sick. chinese guitars arent even good enough to be firewood. dont buy chinese. they are not even good enough for a project guitar.
Rusty Shackleford oh come on, you got coronavirus from a guitar? With the amount of time it takes to get to you from China, the virus is dead on the guitar itself, you got the virus from something else, it wasn’t just because the guitar came from China.

Gorgeous paint job! I want one too
I’ve got a real EVH 5150 now. It looks orange but it’s really red.
That is freakin sweet!
definitely one of Ed’s finest
The unboxing can't be too long!
Awesome!!!
Would love to get this one,an budakhan Ace,iron cross hetfield, pinststripe billy,and few others just to put in glass boxes around my mancave
that would be excellent brother.
Beautiful
thank you and God bless you.
Where have I see those colors before?! \m/
Everyone that shops at any big box stores dollar stores ect.. in the USA unboxes Chinese goods daily..
Unless you order from a custom shop
This Kramer of replicate of eddies look great!!?

Actually I got a aliexpress EVH and the hardware and electronics are surprisingly good.
Never trust a guy who wears socks with thong sandals lololol
true it usually means they got ugly feet.
Oh Crap!...I guess I am really scary in my cutoff shorts and Ariat boots...lol
On stage I use dress this way but had my tie died union longjohns under em during the winter
Your grandma's decor game is strong.
Who was the seller? Looking on getting one myself.
That's Rad!
its really not any good. its really only a wall hanger. the quality is terrible. but thanks for the nice comment.
Just love Van Halen
how long to get and was there tarrifs
where did you buy it
Where’s the Kramer Logo plus Star on the headstock????
there is no kramer logo on it. its a chinese knockoff.
I love that electric twanger Rusty! It rocks 🎸❤️

People have gotten cease & desist orders from companies like Gibson before and in that case the US confiscates the guitar & burns it.
Nice lookin guitar but fake🤦♂️🤦♂️
yes its fake as can be. i had to modify it to make it work right. its been modified EVH style so it embodies the EVH vibe for sure now.
