Earlier month, EVH unleashed two more additions to the EVH Wolfgang Standard Exotic line, including Poplar Burl and Laurel Burl. A glamorous new take on the classic contour, this guitar embodies the classic craftsmanship and playability that EVH is known for with distinguished new natural finishes.
The stylish design is just the tip of the iceberg. Each model comes stock with powerful direct mount humbucking pickups crafted with Eddie Van Halen’s soaring tone in mind. Thanks to the Floyd Rose Special bridge, comfortable maple fingerboard and R2 locking nut, The Wolfgang Standard Exotic is optimized for the most dexterous runs, depth-defying dive bombs and scorching licks that any player could conjure up.
