From the graphite-reinforced baked maple neck and compound radius ebony fingerboard to the carefully voiced Alnico 2 pickups and pro-level hardware, every detail is geared towards serious players who demand stability, comfort and cutting clarity at stage volumes. If you want that unmistakable Wolfgang feel and response in a streamlined, gig-ready package, this model delivers in spades.

Player-Focused Wolfgang Neck

The quartersawn baked maple neck is carved and rolled to Eddie’s own Wolfgang backshape, giving a fast yet substantial feel that encourages confident riffing and wide bends. Graphite reinforcement keeps the neck stable under changing temperatures and tunings, while the hand-rubbed satin urethane on the back feels smooth and broken-in straight out of the box.

Compound Radius Ebony Fingerboard

A 12 inch to 16 inch compound radius ebony fingerboard offers the best of both worlds: a slightly rounder feel for comfortable chords lower down, flattening out for effortless bends and low action higher up the neck. Jumbo frets make vibrato and legato playing easy, and pearloid dot inlays keep things clean and functional on a dark, fast-playing surface.

Direct-Mount EVH Wolfgang Pickups

Custom-designed EVH Wolfgang Alnico 2 humbuckers are mounted directly to the basswood body for a tighter, more immediate response and enhanced sustain. Voiced for clarity and punch, they stay articulate under high gain, making complex chords and rapid-fire runs cut through the mix while still offering warmth and musicality for leads and cleaner passages.

EVH Floyd Rose with D-Tuna

The EVH-branded Floyd Rose locking tremolo, paired with a Floyd Rose R2 locking nut and brass block, delivers rock-solid tuning stability even with aggressive divebombs and flutters. The integrated EVH D-Tuna lets you flick between standard tuning and drop D on the low E string in seconds, ideal for switching tunings mid-set without changing guitars.

FEATURES

• Graphite-Reinforced Baked Maple Neck - The quartersawn baked maple neck with graphite reinforcement offers exceptional stability and resistance to warping, so your setup stays consistent from rehearsal to stage. The Wolfgang backshape and rolled edges provide a fast, comfortable feel tailored to demanding rock and metal playing.
• 12 inch to 16 inch Compound Radius Ebony Fingerboard - The compound radius design makes rhythm work feel natural in the lower positions while allowing ultra-low action and clean bends higher up. Ebony adds snap and definition to your tone, helping every note speak clearly under gain.
• Direct-Mount EVH Wolfgang Humbuckers - Mounted straight into the body, these EVH-designed humbuckers deliver a tight, focused attack and long sustain. Their Alnico 2 voicing balances aggression with warmth, giving you articulate rhythm crunch and fluid, singing lead tones without getting muddy.
• EVH Floyd Rose Trem with D-Tuna - The EVH-branded Floyd Rose locking tremolo and R2 locking nut keep your tuning locked in, even with extreme pitch shifts. The built-in D-Tuna lets you drop the low E to D instantly, making it easy to move between standard and drop tunings during a set.
