EVH Wolfgang Special Baked Maple Ivory

Built for speed, precision, and total control, the EVH Wolfgang Special delivers everything you’d expect from a guitar designed to meet Eddie Van Halen’s exacting standards. The basswood body with an arched top keeps things lightweight and resonant, while the graphite-reinforced bolt-on quartersawn baked maple neck is carved and rolled to feel fast, broken-in, and effortless right out of the case.

The 12"-16" compound radius ebony fingerboard is built for performance—comfortable for chords down low and ready to handle aggressive bends and lead work up top. Jumbo frets, a spoke wheel truss rod adjustment, and a hand-rubbed satin neck finish all work together to make this guitar feel dialed-in from every angle. Whether you’re digging into tight rhythm work or pushing into high-gain leads, this is a platform that keeps up.

At the core of its voice, a pair of direct-mount EVH Wolfgang Alnico 2 humbuckers deliver a dynamic, articulate response with serious sustain. The Floyd Rose locking tremolo paired with the EVH D-Tuna gives you rock-solid tuning stability and instant access to drop-D without missing a beat. Add in smooth volume control with a treble bleed circuit and a high-friction tone knob that stays put, and you’ve got a guitar that’s built to perform without compromise.
