A Custom Shop Wolfgang Wielding Sweetwater's Hand-picked Specs
The EVH Custom Shop is open for business, and our team of guitar experts is proud to mark the occasion with this glorious Sweetwater-designed EVH Custom Shop Wolfgang! From the attention-demanding quilted maple cap atop the mahogany body to the EVH-profile quartersawn maple neck, we dialed in every element of this Wolfgang in collaboration with the EVH Custom Shop to supply show-stopping good looks and fleet-fingered performance. A matching quartersawn maple fingerboard in a compound 12-inch to 16-inch radius and a slick oiled finish ensures optimal playability across all 22 frets, whether you’re dishing out squealing licks up high or driving the band with low-position power chord crunch. And while this top-of-the-line 6-string creation slots right into styles of all sorts, its Wolfgang USA humbuckers and EVH-branded Floyd Rose double-locking tremolo with D-Tuna unleash a fiery hard-rocking fury that would do King Edward proud. Crowned with a no-nonsense Volume/Tone control configuration, multi-ply binding, and EVH Tuning machines, our Sweetwater-spec EVH Custom Shop Wolfgang is sure to turn heads the moment it leaves the case.

The consummate performance-centric electric guitar
If you’re searching for the perfect platform for your fretboard wizardry, look no further. This Custom Shop Wolfgang is the axe of your dreams. It features a mahogany body with a quilted maple top — a classic rock pairing — that imbues it with an amazing natural acoustic tone. Beyond that, this Wolfgang boasts a bolt-on maple neck with a comfortable oiled feel and a fast-playing 22-fret compound-radius fingerboard. Visually speaking, the 5-ply body binding and understated dot fingerboard inlays add an elegant touch to this solidbody electric guitar.
Scorching-hot, direct-mount EVH Wolfgang pickups
This EVH Custom Shop creation comes equipped with direct-mount Wolfgang humbuckers. These scorching-hot pickups offer a first-class ticket to Edward Van Halen's elusive tone. We'll give you fair warning: plug this solidbody electric guitar into your high-gain amplifier of choice, and you'll be bowled over with singing highs, snarling mids, and fat lows — a.k.a., the legendary "Brown Sound" — with all the amp-punishing output you can handle.
Rock-solid EVH-branded Floyd Rose tremolo
No self-respecting EVH disciple can resist King Edward’s trademark squeals and dive-bombs. Accordingly, this Custom Shop Wolfgang is set to stun with an EVH-branded Floyd Rose double-locking tremolo. Whether you give it a slight nudge for a subtle vibrato or abuse it for full-blown pitch pyrotechnics, you’ll experience the response and tuning stability that you’d expect from a Floyd Rose. On top of that, you can easily switch to Drop D tuning, courtesy of this Custom Shop Wolfgang’s D-Tuna. We’ve subjected this Wolfgang to a fair share of aggressive treatment here at Sweetwater, and it hit the ground runnin’ — it’s rock solid all the way.
