The EVH Wolfgang WG Standard boasts the same style and massive sound Eddie Van Halen created – but at an accessible price point for musicians of all abilities. Combining precision specs with a striking Gold Top design, it’ll get you centre-stage in no time.
Body & Neck
EVH have successfully replicated the mojo of the original Wolfgang into a more affordable package without cutting corners. A Basswood body features contours and an offset shape for a comfortable, familiar feel – and the Gold Top is hard to take your eyes off.
Its bolt-on Maple neck with graphite reinforcement rods ensures stability no matter what the conditions. To help you settle in and get up to maximum speed, EVH have also employed an oiled neck back, compound radius and rolled fretboard edges. Premium appointments in an accessible instrument!
Hardware & Electronics
Dual EVH Wolfgang humbucking pickups mounted directly to the body allow maximum resonance – expect sustain for days. Smooth pots ensure just the right amount of control (to Van Halen’s specs) without compromising the WG’s sizzling top end.
Finally, an EVH-branded Floyd Rose bridge with R2 locking nut ensures that no matter how chaotic your playing, the guitar stays firmly in tune. Go forth and tear it up!
