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.

Before unleashing your musical prowess with the EVH Wolfgang Special Electric Guitar, Maple Fingerboard in Sonic Boom, understand why this instrument is a road-tested powerhouse. Crafted for musicians who demand both style and substance, this guitar is a purebred music-making machine, honed in arenas worldwide.
The Wolfgang Special boasts a basswood body with an elegantly arched top, complemented by a robust, graphite-reinforced bolt-on quartersawn maple neck. This neck is meticulously carved and rolled to meet Eddie Van Halen's exacting standards, featuring a hand-rubbed urethane back finish for a smooth, comfortable grip. Designed for high-speed playability, the 12"-16" compound radius maple fingerboard is equipped with 22 jumbo frets and black dot inlays, ensuring effortless navigation across the fretboard.
Truss rod adjustments are a breeze, thanks to the conveniently located spoke wheel at the neck's base. The guitar's sonic prowess is powered by a pair of custom-designed black EVH Wolfgang Alnico 2 humbucking pickups, mounted directly to the body. These pickups deliver a dynamic yet articulate sound, offering endless sustain for powerful chords and melodic lines.
The EVH-branded Floyd Rose locking tremolo system, paired with a Floyd Rose locking nut, ensures precise tuning stability even during extreme pitch changes. The innovative EVH D-Tuna allows for quick retuning to drop-D and back with impeccable accuracy. The volume knob features a 500K EVH Bourns low friction pot with a treble bleed circuit for smooth volume swells, while the tone control knob is equipped with a 250K Bourns high friction pot to prevent accidental tone shifts.
Direct mount EVH Wolfgang humbuckers with Alnico 2 magnets capture Eddie Van Halen's iconic lead tone, delivering rich harmonics, cutting highs, and snarling mids. The versatile control layout includes a three-way toggle switch, allowing you to explore a wide tonal range. Position one engages the bridge pickup for robust rhythm riffing, position two activates both pickups, and position three is perfect for blistering solos.
The EVH-branded Floyd Rose bridge, featuring steel saddles and a solid brass block, is a professional-grade double-locking design that provides ultimate tuning stability and dynamic tremolo action. The EVH D-Tuna, a standard on Eddie's personal guitars since the early '90s, offers a unique patented device for instant drop-D tuning.
Aesthetically, the Wolfgang Special stands out with its attractive body binding and a color-matched Wolfgang headstock, perfectly complementing the striking Sonic Boom finish. This guitar is not just an instrument; it's a statement of style and performance, ready to take your music to new heights.
