EVH Frankenstein Series Relic Electric Guitar - Black

Step into the legendary sound and style of Eddie Van Halen with the EVH Frankenstein Series Relic Electric Guitar in Black. Known as "Frankenstein," this guitar captures Eddie's iconic tone and innovative design. It’s inspired by his attempt to merge the sound of a classic single-cut solid-body guitar with the tremolo functionality and feel of a Fender Stratocaster. This "Frankie" Series delivers a civilian replica of Eddie's famous red, black, and white Frankenstrat, complete with a meticulously relic'd finish for an authentic, worn-in look.

Crafted from solid basswood, this guitar produces a growling tone with rock-solid mids that slice through the mix effortlessly. It features a direct-mount Wolfgang humbucker, delivering Eddie's signature tone, especially when paired with a high-gain amp. The quartersawn maple neck and compound-radius maple fingerboard offer lightning-fast playability, making this guitar a shredder’s dream. The Floyd Rose locking tremolo with EVH D-Tuna allows for effortless dive bombs and quick Drop D tuning adjustments, perfect for replicating Eddie's iconic tremolo tricks. With its aged hardware, authentic vibe, and unparalleled tone, the EVH Frankenstein Series is a must-have for Van Halen fans and guitar enthusiasts alike.
