      This was a disc sent out in guitar world magazine, in 2008 I have it somewhere, it also had the promo for the Frankenstein guitar you could purchase something like 500 or 50 of the exact replicas were built and I believe they were selling for $20,000 maybe it was more or less . But basically that's where and what the entire disk was about if memory serves correct.

    Then once inside Gods kingdom, he sneaks back there at night to retrieve it.
    He gets it back to his room only to find out Eddie is the worst guitar tech ever.
    There’s dead spots, buzzing, intonation is whack, stripped screws, .10 E & B string, won’t tune, bar wobble, etc. etc. etc.
    Then all the sudden Eddie shows up “Hey! That’s MY guitar!” (Proceeds to shred like Ed)
