Overview
The Wolfgang WG Standard boasts the same style and massive sound Eddie Van Halen created at a price the everyday musician can afford.
Offering many of the blazing features as its more expensive brethren, the Wolfgang WG Standard has a basswood body with special "comfort cut" forearm contour for maximum playing ease. Its bolt-on baked maple neck with graphite reinforcement rods hold strong against the ravages of temperature and humidity, while a conveniently located spoke wheel at the base of the neck makes for quick and painless truss rod adjustments. Designed for comfortable playability and speed, the Wolfgang WG Standard also features an oiled finish on the back of the neck and a 12"-16" compound radius baked maple fingerboard with rolled edges, 22 jumbo frets and black dot inlays.
Dual EVH Wolfgang humbucking pickups mounted directly to the body increase vibration transfer, resulting in sustain for days on end. Two black speed control knobs have been dialed-in to Van Halen's exacting specifications -- the smooth-feeling 500k pots make it easy to find a unique sound while retaining the crisp high-end sparkle of the Wolfgang pickups. The EVH-branded Floyd Rose Special bridge and R2 locking nut consistently keep the guitar in tune through the deepest whammy dives and horse whinnies.
Tested live onstage where it counts, the Wolfgang WG Standard is decked out for playing performance and comfort, and available in several head-turning finishes.

"Not that standard."

It is the most comfortable guitar that I have ever played. The roasted maple neck is unreal and plays like nothing else that I've tried. I was afraid that it would sound too Van Halen and be a one trick pony, it is not and is very versatile. I've played everything from Boston to Ozzy on this thing and it's good at it all. Also adding to the comfort is a belly cut which the special doesn't have and no neck dive at all. It is a player's guitar.
