This USA-made Wolfgang comes modded to Eddie's "Signature" specs -- from the red-button killswitch and Floyd Rose locking trem to those eye-bolt strap pins.

What's special about this item?

Feature: What it does:
Basswood body Big, warm midrange tones
Ebony fretboard Dark color, tight grain; premium fretboard wood
EVH Wolfgang pickups Voiced by Eddie Van Halen himself; dynamic and hot
Floyd Rose locking tremolo with EVH D-Tuna Built-in "drop-D" lever on tremolo bridge

EVH brings you the Wolfgang USA Edward Van Halen Signature model, loaded with Eddie Van Halen's most up-to-date specs along with the classic looks and behemoth sound you've come to expect.

The basswood body features a big-leaf maple top and five-ply binding, while the bolt-on quartersawn maple neck is sculpted to Eddie's precise specs, with graphite reinforcement and a hand-rubbed back finish for smooth, fast playability. The compound-radius (12"-16") ebony fingerboard has 22 vintage stainless steel frets, pearloid (Ivory finish) or dot (Stealth finish) inlays, and a convenient heel-mounted truss rod adjustment wheel.

Experience scorching and well-balanced tone with a custom-wound alnico 2 EVH Wolfgang Humbucker in the bridge and a newly added alnico 3 custom-wound EVH Wolfgang Humbucker in the neck, both controlled by a special reverse oriented three-way toggle switch. Stutter-stop like "You Really Got Me" with the red-button killswitch and play "Cathedral" without any crackle or pop, courtesy of the EVH Custom High Friction (Tone) Pot and an EVH "HPU" or High Performance Upgrade, custom made Low Friction (Volume) Pot.

Sturdy and steadfast, the EVH-branded Floyd Rose locking tremolo provides endless sustain and precise tuning regardless of how many dive bombs you rip or how drastically you attack your whammy-bar. The EVH D-Tuna retunes to drop-D and back with strict accuracy at the flick of a finger, with a low-friction volume control for smooth swells and a high-friction read more tone control that prevents accidental tone shifting.

Boasts elegant and classic style in Ivory or Stealth with chrome hardware, black speed knobs and dog leash strap/eye-bolt clasps. Hard-shell EVH Striped SKB case and EVH leather strap included.

What a great guitar. Easily the nicest I have ever owned. I was concerned about the lack of jumbo frets on this guitar, but I barely notice the difference. The neck is smooth and quick. It sustains nicely. Stays in tune very well so far. Shipped with nice action and intonated pretty close. Everything feels solid and high quality. I do wish that this signature guitar had something to make it stand out visually from the other versions. Perhaps a signature, small graphic behind the headstock...something. It doesn't even come with a pick, booklet or even a decal lol. Something to say hey thanks for spending too much money for this guitar!

Musical Background:

I have been a casual player for about 20 years. Not musically talented but really enjoy the guitar.
