This is an awesome guitar. The Floyd Rose works great, the fret work was done really well, and the color is perfect.

Overall this is a great guitar. Excellent build quality and excellent components. This is an easy to play guitar due to the neck and contoured body. Note this is not a standard Floyd Rose. This one is to Eddie's specs and is flat on the body to be able to use the Drop D tuning. Takes some getting used to. The frets on mine were sprouting pretty badly when I received it, but after a few days of sitting in the humidity, the issue went away. I am sure this was stored somewhere very dry and the fretboard shrunk up. This is a great guitar for many styles of playing, especially rock, alternative, and metal. I love the flat satin surf green color. It is beautiful. I highly recommend this guitar. It is a great value and a super fun guitar to play. From the screaming pickups to the Drop D Tuning system, it's a winner. EVH does it again with the MIM EVH special guitar!

Fantastic guitar. I've owned a Peavey EVH for 20 years and this new Fender version is just as nice, maybe nicer. I love the neck on it, its a ripper for sure.

I LOVE IT! It took 9 months to get 1(ONE) sent from EVH. Adorama was very prompt with shipping. The guitar arrived in perfect condition and I tune. I will definitely continue to do business with Adorama. If you are curious about the Wolfgang guitar? I?ve been doing all of the whole nine yards outside of widespread fame and fortune for 35 years. Played and loved many different guitars. The Wolfgang is indeed a special device?a successful marriage of Les Paul and Strat - What Eddie was going for all along! He did it. Now we can all enjoy and benefit. Cheers!!!

This is one of the better guitars I've played in my life. Right out of the box it was intonated perfectly but needed to be tuned. If you haven't used a D-Tuna before (like me), I highly recommend looking up a video on how to properly tune it. Having owned floating floyd rose bridge guitars before, I expected tuning to be a hassle. But to my surprise, it tuned just like a regular guitar and I barely had to use the fine tuning pegs. My only problem that I've adjusted to my comfort would be the tension on the bridge was a bit too much for me, removing the cover on the back and taking out one of the springs fixed this problem for me. But everything else is perfect, you're getting the sound of a Les Paul in a strat style body. It's hard to not want to play this guitar. The neck is the smoothest I've ever played, it's finely sanded down and just feels like butter. The gloss black body is also stunning to look at, but keep a cloth around because it's a finger print magnet. If you're a fan of EVH or looking for a good hybrid between Fender and Gibson, this is the guitar for you.

Of all the WG specials I own (4), this one was almost perfect out of the box. Easier to set-up, and smoother to play. The only explanation I have is that sometimes guitars come together better than others. Pieces fit better, tone is right where you want it, etc... That’s what this one was. She’s a pure joy to play and the color looks far better in person than the pics show.

Make your music come alive with the Wolfgang Special Electric Guitar, a world-renowned instrument that has proven its mettle on stages across the globe. This guitar, with its Burgundy Mist Metallic finish and Ebony Fingerboard, is more than just an instrument; it's a fusion of stunning aesthetics and powerful sound, designed for high-speed playability.
The Wolfgang Special boasts a basswood body, known for its rich, warm tone, and an arched top that enhances resonance. Its robust, graphite-reinforced bolt-on quartersawn maple neck is carved and rolled to the precise specifications of Eddie Van Halen, ensuring a comfortable and responsive playing experience. The neck is finished with a hand-rubbed urethane, adding to its smooth feel and durability.
The 12"-16" compound radius ebony fingerboard, with its 22 jumbo frets and pearloid dot inlays, is primed for high-performance playing. Whether you're riffing energetically or playing blazing leads, this guitar delivers. The spoke wheel at the base of the neck simplifies truss rod adjustments, making it easier than ever to fine-tune your instrument.
The Wolfgang Special is equipped with two custom-designed black EVH Wolfgang Alnico 2 humbucking pickups, mounted directly to the body. These pickups offer dynamic and articulate voicing, along with endless sustain for powerful chords and melody lines.
The guitar's EVH-branded Floyd Rose locking trem and Floyd Rose locking nut work in harmony to maintain precise tuning, even with extreme pitch changes. The EVH D-Tuna allows for quick and accurate retuning to drop-D and back at the flick of a finger. The low-friction volume control ensures smooth swells, while the high-friction tone control prevents accidental tone shifting.
The Wolfgang Special Electric Guitar is available in a range of finishes, including the eye-catching Burgundy Mist Metallic, with a matching headstock. The Burgundy Mist Metallic and Satin Primer Gray models feature black body binding and black hardware, while the Deep Purple Metallic, Ice Blue Metallic, and Ivory models showcase cream body binding and chrome hardware. The Stealth Black model stands out with cream body binding and black hardware.
In essence, the Wolfgang Special Electric Guitar is a perfect blend of style, sound, and playability, making it a must-have for any serious musician.
