If you find yourself here just looking around, I get it. I guess if I were in the market for a new axe, you could find yourself in seedier locations.

This guitar you see may not appeal to the first-generation Van Halen fan. Yeah, I know—those magical years with Dave can't even be described with words, let alone matched.


But this Wolfgang? It might resonate with those who were into "Van Hagar." I remember cruising down the road back in '85 when "__Why Can't This Be Love"__ came into my here and now, courtesy of my trusty Clarion tape deck. Unbelievable, I thought. What struck me was how it didn’t even sound like the Van Halen I knew. This incarnation was something else entirely. But I digress.


Now, back to this guitar. The Wolfgang pickups and Drop-D tuner are what make these guitars legendary. The pickups? They lean a little mid-rangy, but roll the volume back to 8, and you’ve got full control. And the tremolo? It’s nothing but the bottom on the net. I know- your jammin' and all of a sudden, that lead singer boards the "way back machine" and wants to jam on Ratt? Lack of Communication will never be easier to drop down to "D" than with this handy little device.


As you probably know, the Wolfgang standard basswood body brings this beast's tone to life. Weighing in at 7 lbs, 9 oz., it delivers that deep, rich sound.


And the condition? This guitar is the closet you can get to buying it off the shelf in 03. Meaning? It's tidy as a military bunk. Case? Original. Paperwork? All of it.


If you need me, I’ll be watching __Live Without a Net.__ Why not? I’ve got love for Sammy, too. Still, that version of Van Halen? It’s not quite the "Dirty Face Kid in a Garage Can" vibe that I truly enjoy. Regardless, pass me a beer and light 'em up...


P.S. This one has a push‑pull pot for coil-splitting . I know it's not factory, but no doubt this will give you more options.
