Wayne Charvel and others helped EVH a lot.

This thread is ridiculous. What do you care if Icey gets a custom made axe for himslef. The negativity here is amazing, why all the hate on him? I've seen the stuff people have done on here, and none of it is really that exceptional or hard. The arrogance some of you people have is amazing.

Icey only plays the FINEST. He's got standards, high ones, and that's pretty fucking classy.

I been on a lot of Internetz in relation to guitars, and Icey is so infectious for guitars it's not even funny. He's got the fever... and people constantly hate on him. I don't get it, especially in this case.
