EVH Wolfgang Special Striped Series, Red, Black, and White

Full Description

High-quality craftsmanship

With its eye-catching striped finish, black headstock, and chrome hardware, this instrument exudes iconic style. Crafted with a basswood body and an arched top, it delivers a huge and highly-responsive sound. The robust graphite-reinforced quartersawn maple neck, carved and rolled to EVH's exacting specifications, provides a comfortable and fast playing experience. The speedy 12"-16" compound radius ebony fingerboard with 22 jumbo frets enables energetic riffing and blazing leads. Adding to its functionality, the heel-mount truss rod adjustment wheel allows for quick and easy neck relief tweaks, making it a favorite among guitar techs.

Powerful and dynamic tone

Equipped with custom-designed EVH Wolfgang Humbucking pickups, the Wolfgang Special Striped delivers a crystal clear and powerful tone. These pickups are mounted directly to the body, providing enhanced girth, sparkle, and near-endless sustain. Whether you're playing power chords or intricate melody lines, this guitar has the versatility and dynamics to keep up with your playing style. The tone and volume knobs are designed for high-speed playing. The low-friction volume knob enables smooth and precise volume swells, akin to violin-like techniques. The tone knob resists easy turning, ensuring that you don't accidentally shift your desired tone as you navigate the strings with lightning speed.

Reliable and precise performance

The EVH Striped Series Wolfgang Special is designed to handle the rigors of high-speed playing and performance. It features an EVH-branded Floyd Rose locking tremolo bridge, combined with a locking nut, to ensure precise tuning stability. No matter how wild your whammy-bar antics may get, you can rely on this guitar to stay in tune. The inclusion of the EVH D-Tuna adds a whole new level of versatility to this instrument. With a simple flick of a finger, you can effortlessly retune to Drop-D and back again with strict accuracy. This feature alone makes the Wolfgang Special Striped the only guitar you'll need on stage.

Complete with gig bag

For added convenience and protection, the EVH Striped Series Wolfgang Special comes with a gig bag. This ensures that your prized instrument stays safe during transportation, whether you're going to gigs, rehearsals, or music lessons. The gig bag is designed to fit the guitar perfectly, providing padded protection and a comfortable carry handle. With this bag, your Wolfgang Special Striped is ready to hit the road whenever you are.
