Boasting the style and massive sound that Eddie Van Halen is known for, the EVH Wolfgang WG Standard Exotic features exotic wood options for players with distinguished taste. The Wolfgang WG Standard Exotic spalted maple offers a basswood body with special “comfort-cut” forearm contour for maximum playing ease, along with attractive masked-off natural body binding and distinctive 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, this stylish axe also features an 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 Eddie 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.
