EVH® Wolfgang® WG Standard QM

Description
Offering many of the blazing features as its more expensive brethren, this axe features a basswood body with special "comfort-cut" forearm contour for maximum playing ease, along with attractive masked-off natural body binding and an elegant quilt maple top. Its bolt-on baked maple neck with graphite reinforcement rods hold strong against the ravages of temperature and humidity, while a conveniently located spoke wheel at the base of the neck makes for quick and painless truss rod adjustments. Designed for comfortable playability and speed, the Wolfgang WG Standard also features a smooth oiled finish on the back of the neck and a 12"–16" compound radius 22-fret baked maple fingerboard with rolled edges and black dot inlays.
Dual EVH Wolfgang humbucking pickups mounted directly to the body increase vibration transfer, resulting in sustain for days on end. Two domed control knobs have been dialed in to Van Halen's exacting specifications—the smooth-feeling 500k pots make it easy to find a unique sound while retaining the crisp high-end sparkle of the Wolfgang pickups. The EVH-branded Floyd Rose Special bridge and R2 locking nut consistently keep the instrument in tune through the deepest whammy dives and horse whinnies.

Wanted something to go with my Les Pauls that was not a strat. Build quality is very good. Neck is awesome. Love the top on this.

I replaced the Floyd with one from an EVH Special and disconnected the tone pot from the circuit (fixed the woofiness of the neck pickup). I gig it along with my Gibson Les Paul's. Fantastic guitar, love the neck. I want a stealth special at some point.
Know what you're going into. Somewhat disappointed.

Overall nice for the price but I'd expect alittle more from EVH. Downside is that it doesn't come with a D Tuna, add $40.00 and your time to install, and the trem block is a thin cheesy piece of zinc , should be a thick brass block in there. Add another $55.00 and your time to correct this.
Love the Transparent Amber

Just got my Transparent Amber this evening and this is my new favorite and go to guitar. Looks and plays fantastic. The same time I purchased this guitar, I bought another Standard Bomber Black and Special Black. The Standards play just as great and are more comfortable to me than the Specials. The Specials lack the "strat body contours". Can't say enough how pleased I am with the decision to get these Standards.

I'm a beginner player and I'm ready to move up from my Squier Strat to the EVH WG Standard (transparent amber). My question is...what origin of country would I be receiving it from?
