EVH

Description

The EVH Wolfgang USA Electric Guitar Stealth is Eddie Van Halen's sinister take on his iconic Wolfgang series. Built to Eddie's exacting specs, this ax provides absolutely wicked tone and playability to dominate under the spotlights. From its high-output humbuckers and Floyd Rose tremolo to its premium tonewoods, the Wolfgang Stealth is engineered to rip through solos at breakneck speeds.

EVH Humbuckers Deliver Pummeling Output

The Wolfgang Stealth packs a sonic punch with a pair of EVH Wolfgang humbucking pickups. These hard-mounted humbuckers provide tight, articulate lows, a throaty midrange and cutting highs to slice through any mix. With three-position switching, you can access both pickups together or individually to explore a range of tones from warm and rounded to aggressive and biting.

Floyd Rose Tremolo Enables Divebombs and Squeals

An original Floyd Rose double-locking tremolo allows for radical pitch bends, divebombs and squeals. This German-made trem system keeps the Wolfgang Stealth perfectly in tune even under heavy use. For expedient tuning changes, the D-Tuna mechanism lets you drop from standard pitch to drop-D tuning at the flick of a lever.

Premium Woods and Components

At the Wolfgang Stealth's core is a basswood body topped with gorgeous quilted maple and a maple neck reinforced with dual graphite rods for rock-solid stability. The fast-playing ebony fingerboard has a compound 12"-16" radius and 22 jumbo frets. Quality hardware, like EVH-branded tuners, a string retainer and strap buttons, completes the package.

Made to Eddie's Standards

Built in the USA to Eddie Van Halen's uncompromising standards, the Wolfgang Stealth delivers exceptional quality, tone, and playability. Experience the stealthy power and precision of Eddie's vision for yourself.

    It took some getting used to the thin neck (I'm a les paul guy) but man once you get acclimated this is an amazing instrument. The pinch harmonics just jump off the board. Only complaint is for the money it should come with a German Floyd. Neck pickups is unbelievable too - super clear not muddy

  • A real beauty

    This guitar is very well made. I used to own the Peavey version and this is pretty much the same, however I did prefer the size of the frets on the Peavey. Overall I am very satisfied with the guitar. The case is a nice touch, also well made.

    What an awesome product! This is my second USA EVH Wolfgang. I love the Ebony fret board. It's comfortable and super fast. Great build quality and fantastic tone. This is the nicest guitar I've ever owned and I've had them all. I'll definitely be buying another?

  • Awesome!

    Just got it last night and I couldn't be happier with this guitar. I currently own one US model and 3 Japanese models. The Japanese models are high quality for the money but it's difficult to compare them to the build quality of the US models. Every EVH Wolfgang I own has a maple neck so I was hesitate when it came to Ebony fret board. I understand now why almost 90% of the Wolfgangs have ebony fret boards. The fret board and neck have a more comfortable feel and it's faster than the maple fret board. The build quality, tone and overall superiority of this guitar is really something to behold. I've owned Les Pauls, Strats and Charvels and none of them compare to the superiority of this guitar. Great job Eddie! Best guitar on the market. I can't wait to get my next one!

    High quality guitar with great tone. I play it in church (contemporary!)and in a small garage band. The only thing not so great is that sometimes I will accidentally turn down the volume a bit since the volume pot is low friction but that doesn't happen a lot.

    What is the difference between this one: the Wolfgang USA stealth, and the Wolfgang Special stealth that is 1/4 the price (about $1,000)?

    It says blemished. What is the blemish?

    Open Reply - Beau
    Unfortunately, we have no way of knowing what the blemish is. However, it would only be a minor cosmetic flaw and would not effect the guitars play ability.
