THANKS TO ITS appearance on the front and rear cover of Van Halen’s 1980 album Women and Children First, the guitar that Eddie Van Halen called the “Shark” ranks as one of his top five iconic early instruments along with his homemade Frankenstein, black and yellow “bumblebee” Charvel and “5150” Kramer. The Shark started life as an Ibanez Destroyer with an ash body finished to look like korina, but Ed made several modifications such as painting it white before using it to record several songs on Van Halen’s debut album. After that album, he cut a huge chunk out of the lower bout, painted the body silver before applying masking tape and a top coat of burgundy Schwinn bicycle paint to create his signature stripes and experimented with a wide variety of different pickups and hardware. Due to popular demand, EVH has replicated the Shark guitar in its classic Women and Children First configuration.

Kittie - Guitarists Morgan Lander and Tara Mcleod discuss the canadian metal powerhouse's unexpected rebirth â by fire!
Guitarists Morgan Lander and Tara McLeod explain that making new music was ânot on their bingo cardâ when the band regrouped in 2022 for a few festival appearances, preferring to think of the sets as more of a âfinal lapâ than a new beginning. But drilling into old favorites â whether the nu-flavored teenage slams of 1999âs Spit or the more venomously groove-thrashed tunes of their late-â00s period â revealed that despite not having raged together in years, there was something undeniably special about Kittieâs musical connection. âPlaying with these girls is like putting on an old pair of pants,â Lander says. âItâs very comfortable â and it looks good too.â
McKinley James - Why all you really need is a guitar, a drummer and some serious low-end six-string skills
Nashville-based blues rocker McKinley James came flying out of the gate in 2022 with his Dan Auerbachproduced EP, Still Standing By. His momentum screeched to a halt, however, when his keyboardist split, leaving only him and his drummer, Jason Smay (who also happens to be his father). âFor a moment, I was like, âWhat are we going to do?â James says. âBut then I thought, âWell, other bands have succeeded as a duo. Maybe we can, too.â
