Loaded with player-oriented features and iconic style, the Wolfgang Specal Striped is a highly-responsive and huge-sounding instrument that was born to crank out some serious rock.
Sporting some eye popping striped finishes, Red with Black and White Stripes, Black with Yellow Stripes and White with Black Stripes, black headstock and chrome hardware, the Wolfang Special Striped features a basswood body with arched top, robust graphite-reinforced quartersawn maple neck - carved and rolled to EVH's exacting specifications and a speedy 12-16 compound radius ebony fingerboard with 22 jumbo frets for facilitating energetic riffing and blazing leads. A heel-mount truss rod adustment wheel also makes for quick and easy neck relief tweaks, a feature guitar techs everywhere will thank you for.
The crystal clear custom-designed EVH Wolfgang Humbucking pickups are mounted direclty to the body, supplying girth and sparkle, as well as near-endless sustain to power chords and melody lines.
Every component of this guitar has been selected and positioned for high-speed playing. The low-friction volume knob lets you perform speedy violin-like volume swells with ease while the tone knob resists easy turning - avoiding unwanted tonal shifts as your picking hand flies furiously across the strings. The rock-solid EVH-branded Floyd Rose locking tremolo bridge combines with the Floyd Rose locking nut to maintain precise tuning, no matter how insane your whammy-bar histrionics get. The EVH D-Tuna retunes to Drop-D and back with strict accuracy at the mere flick of a finger, making this the only guitar you'll need onstage.
