Customer Reviews
5 out of 5 (2 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "EVH Wolfgang Special HT"
Overall: Great guitar! I was hesitant at first because of the vintage size frets and the fact that it is a special (import) model. I love the feel of Med-Jumbo frets but for some reason be-it the Stainless steel wire or the construction of the neck this has been a non-issue, and there was literally no getting use to period. The overall construction of the instrument is rock solid. I have owned some other imports in my some very expensive ones, and was very disappointed in them. I remember back in the 80s when ESP was first starting to be sold in the US back before the LTDs and being wowed over there craftsmanship. Well EVH has done it the wow factor is defiantly there. Let’s all hope that they don’t go down the same road that other brands have when it comes to the quality of the imports.Lastly but most important, I am very picky about my guitars never thought I was until I found that I had to replace 5 that were stolen from the studio. The attention to detail is fantastic. Defiantly a player’s guitar. I am not a huge Eddie fan but do respect his playing and who better to design a guitar! Some people say a new car is a taste of freedom, well I say take this for a test drive, let it inspire and drive you to practice more and more.Stringed instruments are imperfect by nature, I really think this is as close as you can get. Some of us are lucky enough to find a guitar that has a life of its own, I am sure that this guitar will become a trusted friend for the long haul. I never had to use the customer support but have delt with Fender in the past and they rock!

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "evh stealth wolfgang"
Overall: Picture a les paul,tele, and a fender had a baby. this thing sustains for days, harmonics are effortless, playability is fast and easy. The pickups are if a dimarzio super distortion, a tone zone and a evo 2 had a baby this would be the bridge pickup. The neck pickup is a hybrid between a duncan 59 and a paf pro. very articulate. bottom line this is the best sounding gee i've ever played. its hot and it cleans up like a strat/tele. i wont buy another brand of guitar after i played this. I bought the stealth. ebony for ever..

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!
