    Default Frank, Franky, and Frankenstein Designs - Did you know there was a difference?

    Did you know EVH distinguishes between the black and white design (Frank), the black and yellow design (Franky) and the red, black and white design (Frankenstein).

    For all the ridiculous trademark and copyright policies of EVH go here....

    IMO , he just did that because each color scheme/pattern need a distinguashable name when he copyrighted it.

    he just used those instead of , black and white striped charvel strat 1978, black and yellow charvel strat 1979 tour , and black and white charvel phase 2 and kramer 5150 red white stripe pattern.

    jeeeeeez ,why the acidic comeback? this place is turning into the dlr army part 2.

    While I agree with you on the ridiculous part, lawyers wrote that crap, not Ed. Just my two cents.

    In all seriousness, I never knew there was a difference in the 3 names. Interesting find.

    Guess my question would be how bored were you to be reading the TERMS and CONDITIONS/COPYWRITE info page @ V-H.com
    She got a doorbell sign that said:
    "bring it or don't ring it."

    She's the woman
