When did he get the Les Paul with the Adeline logo?

Alex

I think he's been using it since the beginning of this year, when they were touring Asia.

New Blue looks weird, I don't think it's the stickers though. The shade of blue is just really bright. Maybe it's not a Fender, maybe it's a partscaster he built.

The electricians tape on Billie Joe's large cutaway on Blue is there because some dude knocked into him at one of their first gigs and he dropped the guitar, causing it to crack from the strap lock down. He then later taped it up.

Also he has got copies of "Blue" because the "original" is heavily damaged maybe?

So I think :D

However how does the "Frankenstein" Guitar of him look like? In the internet it is always confound with Blue ...

I Have 2 more Question:

1. Why Billie always delete on the neck "Fender Stratocaster" ? His old blue have the same thing. Why ?

2. Do Billie ever use Squire Deluxe (Daphne Blue) as "Blue" ?

1.On the old Fernandes guitars, they put the headstock logo on top of the finish instead of sealing it underneath. So the logo could flake off, or be removed really easily without damaging the finish. But he probably sanded the logo off so people would think the guitar was a Fender, instead of a copy.

2. No Billie has never used a Squier Deluxe as Blue.

Here ? I Can't find it Can You help me ?

Fernandes isn't allowed to make them any more. There was a big lawsuit involving a bunch of Japanese guitar companies back in the 80s, because they were making guitars that were identical to Fender and Gibson. So after that happened Fernandes still made strats for awhile, but with different headstock shapes. But now the closest thing that they make is called a Fernandes Retrorocket, but they're like misshapen Stratocasters. They only have 2 knobs, the input jack isn't on the front of the body, and the body has a slightly different shape. They make them in daphne blue though.

Ok Thanks. ;)

But i Have last Question why is new "Blue" has deleted the "Fender" on the neck too like the old ?

Probably just because that's how it is on the old Blue. But I'm not completely sure that the new one is a Fender.

I think its an replica of blue and blue is not an original Fender, so why should he not delete it? It only confuse the fans or maybe himself :D

But are there pictures of "FRANKENSTEIN"?

The first thing you said confused me.

Frankenstein is a guitar that Billie built himself, using Fender parts. There's a bunch of people who think it's a Telecaster. I think Blue #2 (the Blue replica from the Nimrod tour) is Frankenstein.
