But yeah I agree.. No offense to the victims of 9/11 but this guitar is atrocious and all money from it needs to be donated to charity.

Ahem....I believe that's Baby Mario. :p

Wow, who woulda thought that the smoldering skeletal frame of the World Trade Center set against a blood-of-the-victims red background would make for such a FUCKING SWEET guitar finish!


If you look at it just right it looks just like Van Halen's guitar! That's some two-fer-one shit right there!

If Rudy Giulliani played guitar, this is the one.
A noun, a verb, and 9/11.

And the pickups are noiseless, so you can't hear the dying scream.

It took me a while to find it but I finally see the Van-Halen Connection
Both Fender and Eddie are Sell-outs

I get it now

Exploit and get paid!

Instead of doing this, why didn't they give guitars to the people involved that played guitar? Maybe special serial number or something?

To be fair, Fender does a good amount of decent charity work. This could have been alright.

They just missed the memo on how tacky it was to jump on the 9/11 anniversary exploitation train.
