EVH Wolfgang Special Stealth Black

Built to Eddie Van Halen’s exacting specifications and proven on stages around the world, the EVH® Wolfgang® Special delivers explosive tone, effortless playability, and rock-solid performance. Designed for players who demand speed, precision, and consistency under pressure, this model blends refined ergonomics with the unmistakable Wolfgang voice.

A basswood body provides a tight, focused tonal foundation, paired with a graphite-reinforced quartersawn maple neck carved to Eddie’s preferred profile. The compound-radius ebony fingerboard makes aggressive rhythm work and fluid lead playing feel equally natural, while the heel-mounted truss rod wheel allows fast adjustments without missing a beat. Direct-mounted EVH Wolfgang Alnico 2 humbuckers supply dynamic response, articulation, and sustain, while the EVH-branded Floyd Rose tremolo with D-Tuna® delivers extreme pitch control with dependable tuning stability.
