			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.electricguitarplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/evh-11.jpg" alt="evh 11 EVH Eddie Van Halen Wolfgang Electric Guitar" align="left" title="EVH Eddie Van Halen Wolfgang Electric Guitar" />From Eddie Van Halen comes a guitar representing over 35 years of cumulative EVH experience and exterpise in guitar design, the EVH Eddie Van Halen Wolfgang Electric Guitar. Built to Eddie Van Halen&#8217;s exact specs and using every single feature of the Wolfgang guitars he himself plays onstage and in the studio, the Wolfgang is a bulletproof and beautiful tonal giant of a guitar that takes whatever you can dish out and then asks for more.</p>
<p>&#8220;Everything that i&#8217;ve built, destroyed, stumbled onto, learned and experienced is in this guitar,&#8221; Eddie Van Halen said. Every aspect and component of this guitar has been examined and upgraded to the highest standard possible&#8211;stainless steel frets, double-potted custom-wounds pickups, five-piece binding on the matching body and headstock, custom made signature tuning machines and Floyd Rose  bridge, new low-friction pots, and the list keeps going. EVH left no stone unturned.</p>
<p>The process undertaken to develop the Wolfgang took over two years of intense trial-and-error research. The formidable tasks yielded a series of prototypes that endured a full year of brutal in-concert road testing by Eddie on Van Halen&#8217;s  triumphant 2007-2008 world tour. To prove that is was battle-worthy and could survive the road, performance data was collected from every gig for months and months to establish and confirm consistency and durability.</p>
<p><strong>Feature:</strong><br />
EVH chrome Gotoh tuners with pearl buttons built exclusively for the Wolfgang<br />
AA birds eye maple fingerboard<br />
Quarter sawn maple neck reinforced with 2 graphite rods<br />
