Gary Moore’s TV Yellow 1961 Gibson SG Junior is the latest 'pre-loved-by-a-rockstar' axe to head to the auction block, courtesy of Gardiner Houlgate.

Giacomo Turra is so goddamn funky he should come with a government health warning. Take some gentle stretches before listening. Apply Deep Heat to core muscle groups.

The rhythm is gonna to get you.

The latest high-spec tribute to Eddie Van Halen’s Frankenstein ditches the stripes and comes in blue, silver and sunburst finishes for a limited time only. Last year, EVH broke from Frankenstein tradition by offering Eddie Van Halen’s most iconic electric guitar in flat, relic’d, “civilian” colorways – red, white and black, essentially deconstructing the striped colors of the original Frankie. Now the company has branched out even further with three limited-edition finishes that depart from the stripes lineage altogether.

The automotive market of the 21st century is decidedly different from the one of the past, and each year sees new innovations buyers can take advantage of, from electric powertrains to autonomous driving assistance features. However, there are still some classic features that some owners still look for in a new car — such as a V8 engine. Not only do they provide more power and torque than typical engines found in road vehicles, like a V6, but they also help produce that extremely satisfying growl that, let's face it, just makes driving more fun.

All 2025 Odyssey models still use the same 3.5-liter naturally aspirated V6 with 280 hp. Prices now start at $41,920 in the U.S. Minivans aren’t typically the type of vehicles that evoke raging enthusiasm among consumers. However, they remain an essential part of the U.S. market, and the esteemed Honda Odyssey has just been updated for 2025. The updates are relatively small, and prices have also been jacked up, although not considerably.

Honda's family hauler has gone through a mid-cycle refresh. The MY2025 Odyssey arrives with subtle styling revisions, more standard features, enhanced technology, and a revamped rear entertainment system. In a time of downsizing, it's unusual that the 2025 Odyssey retains its 3.5-liter V6, but we're not complaining. The entry-level EX is no longer available for MY2025, while the Sport trim has seemingly been replaced by the Sport-L.
