EVH® Wolfgang®/Striped Series Gig Bag

There are few guitars as famous as Eddie Van Halen's favourite 6-string sidekick, affectionately known as "Frankenstein". This guitar was Eddie's attempt to combine the sound of a classic single-cut solidbody guitar with the physical characteristics and tremolo bar functionality of a Fender Stratocaster. The EVH Frankenstein "Frankie" series is a civilian version of Eddie Van Halen's iconic red, black and white Frankenstrat guitar - complete with a worn relic finish.


Crafted from one solid piece of basswood, this solid-body electric guitar growls with the best of them, while boasting rock-solid mids that can cut through a manic rhythm section with ease. A direct-mount Wolfgang humbucker provides Eddie's classic tone, especially when you plug it into a high-gain amp.


Equipped with a slim maple neck and a fast-playing compound-radius maple fingerboard, this guitar was born to shred. Intentionally positioned on the body, the D-Tuna only Floyd Rose allows you to mimic Eddie's signature trem work with ease and gives you instant access to Drop D tuning. The EVH Frankenstein Series models are full of classic Van Halen vibe, but most importantly, they offer killer tone and lightning-fast playability.
