EVH Striped Series 5150 Electric Guitar - Red, Black, and White

EVH Striped Series 5150 Electric Guitar - Red, Black, and White

The EVH Striped Series 5150 evokes the vibe and performance of Eddie Van Halen's famous red, white, and black striped solidbody electric guitar. This axe's growling tone starts with a basswood body. A custom-designed bridge humbucker delivers full lows, crisp highs, and hot-rodded mids that exhibit truckloads of crunch and singing sustain. Experience extreme playability by way of a quartersawn modified C-shaped maple neck with hand-rubbed back finish. And perform extreme dive-bombs with an EVH Floyd Rose tremolo. The EVH Striped Series 5150 solidbody electric guitar is a fitting tribute, right down to its "hockey stick" headstock.

From its basswood body and eye-catching striped finish to its quartersawn maple neck, the EVH Striped Series just screams quality. This gorgeous guitar is made for serious playing, with a compound-radius fingerboard (12"-16") for chording to soloing comfort, an EVH Floyd Rose locking tremolo system (complete with D-Tuna), and a hard-mounted EVH Wolfgang Alnico II humbucker. And an EVH low-friction volume pot creates swells without clicks or pops.

Van Halen's most recognizable instruments are his striped Frankenstein guitars. EVH has reproduced the same look and feel of these early guitars for today's market. These single-pickup Floyd Rose maple fretboard guitars mean business. The striped finish can be seen for miles and is unmistakable. Show your Van Halen pride and pick up an EVH Striped Series guitar today!

Perform awesome dips, warbles, and dive-bombs on the EVH Striped Series's EVH Floyd Rose tremolo. This is the tremolo that rockers have been drawn to for its accuracy and tuning stability. The cool EVH D-Tuna lets you change your low-E string tuning to D with the simple flick of your wrist.
