I have 5 EVH guitars and it's extremely rare that I play anything Van Halen on them. Edward Van Halen once said in an interview that he doesn't want to hear his music on them, he wants to hear ours.
play what you want
Exactly, I tell my friends the same thing. Jack white used a EVH on SNL, and played his stuff
Absolutely agree, i have a JS2450 and rarely i play Satch tunes on It. These are versatile guitars
I play his music on everything. His music was my inspiration to learn guitar in the first place. I play pretty much anything on the wolf. It's comfortable to play.
Thank you for making this. It's seriously annoying if you're in the market for one of these guitars that you can hardly ever find a video where somebody is playing something other than Eruption.
It's my pleasure!
I play through Helix Native and have many a country patch my Wolf. Lots of ambient too.
It’s great at a lot of stuff.
Really versatile. You can use the headstock as bottle opener
The EVH Wolfgang guitars can get a variety of tones for all kinds of music. Love these guitars! Great job man!
Tasty playing man!! Wolfgang has been one of my main guitars for worship, several years. It is versatile, and that neck is very comfortable, easy to play.
Brilliant review! You were reading a lot of minds about the coil split option to tame the warmth/output of the pick ups. It doesn't need to sound like a strat but that did sound nice.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Other than an Ibanez Destroyer, my 3 other guitars are EVH Wolfgangs - a '98 US Peavey, a 2010 EVH Fender Special from Japan, and an EVH Fender Standard from Indonesia. I'm waiting for notifications from Guitar Pusher for a Black Stealth Wolfgang Special or a 5150 Stealth with Killswitch. You can't go wrong with a Wolfgang.
Supremely playable, durable, versatile, and affordable!
Out of those 3 Wolfs which do you prefer?
Curious because i used to own a Peavey 01'...I sold it because i was young and stupid and i regret it to this day...I am thinking about getting a Special maybe but idk..Those Peaveys were awesome imo So easy to play! I can't even find an Original Made in USA fender one anywhere!
Hard to find a MIJ one even..😬
@@moronfromouterspace2972 I've had the Peavey EVH Wolfgang since 1998 - 25 years - and other than changing the strings and the switch tip, the guitar is virtually indestructible and sounds better than brand new.
Compared to the Special and the Standard EVH Wolfgangs from Fender, the Peavey has a brighter sound and feels heavier. The neck feels used but smooth and fast.
The EVH Wolfgangs from Fender are great value for money. I have a MIJ Special and an MII Standard and they both rock. The MII standard is priced much lower but same hardware. Very playable and durable.
But my go-to guitar now is the EVH 5150 Stealth which arrived just 2 days after I made this post.
Man, that bad boy is fast!!! And so easy to play. The neck feels smaller making it easier to play the "Impossible Lick" of "Ice Cream Man"!
It's MIM and everything was set up perfectly - the knobs, switches, the Kill Switch, and the D-Tuna.
Test drive a 5150 if you see one. And it has a friendly price point.
@@RickySare-jm8po
Much appreciated Ricky Thanks!
I will do that! ✌🏼
The guitar feels great and comfortable and yes you can play anything on it.
Thank you for this great review, it's really helpful to hear someone play something different from Van Halen's music on this guitar. I was hesitant on buying one but you helped me make up my mind!
Enjoy!
Awesome demo love mine inspiring to practice harder
I’ve done a Jazz degree, played years of country, blues, rock, Italian polkas and all….with a Peavey Wolfgang Special! Best guitar I’ve owned period!
I’ve tried the others, and the Frankie is amazing to feel….but I can’t get into the other WG’s. I need more time which is weird, as I knew as soon as I played the Peavey WG special it was meant to be. It felt like it had always been in my hands, and I still feel that way, as now it practically has! I think the difference is more the no compound radius neck? Maybe? Loved the EBMM version too…so…I gotta figure this out.
Great playing man! Yeah Wolfgangs are super versatile! Good idea with the coil tap. Nice production on this video too.
Thanks, brother!
Bellissima prova! Molto interessante! 👏👏👏
it's a nice guitar, nice wood combination, I wish it had a built in split control so we can get some single coil sounds too, and no mod needed. It would be more versatile in my humble opinion.
Great guitar and playing as well
Talking about versatility, I really liked those clean tones. 🎸🎸
Brilliant video. The Wolfgang is amazing once you get used to the compact footprint. It’s a great example of minimalist design.
Picked up an EVH Special last month! Sick sick guitar! Lupet ng pickups nya, and D Tuna is so convenient!!!
Awesome video thanks. How hard is the push pull mod?
Nice guitar and clear sounds
ang great play guitar sir perf🤘
Thanks for watching 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Sir Perf what is the update on the SG Restoration?
Mike elgar's pet lick👌
Very nice! First time catching you, and nice chops brother!..and you got me off the fence on the standard Wolfgang…just ordered a couple of push, push split pots from tone shapers, so there going in as soon as I get it!! I’ll be looking for more from you, thanks so much.
Enjoy the new axe!
I can't believe you need to make a video stating that , you can do the same with all EVH gear .
It's all very versatile .
Oh man, I remember drooling over a cream color Wolfgang when I just started out playing guitar! As always, amazing playing and presentation, my friend!
Hahahaha Go for it!
I got one and it's Lush. The only thing I would say is the action is just a touch higher than I'd like after setup. Any lower and you get choke on some bends up high on the 1st and 2nd string. This might not be true for all Wolfgang standards though. Also could probably solve it with a thin saddle shim which I will try at some point to get a low action 6th string without choking the 1st string.
I’m trying to get used to how small the neck is . My thumb always fits all the way around the neck
Need some educated advice im from backwoods SC and i dont have the luxury of playing the MIJ EVH and im trying to decide between a PRS DW CE 24 and a MIJ EVH WG they run about the same price just wondering what you think about how these 2 compare , i know its alot of personal preference and all but justnwondering on value and feel and so on thanks
I play everything on my Wolfgang! Such an easy guitar to play
Sweet Home Alabama?
@@FlyingCircusAct yeah, why not
What makes it easy to play vs any other super strat?
Great playing neck and body fits nice. Sounds great out of the box. Took mine to jam with some people, plugged into an old Crate someone asked if it had active pickups
@@daa5249 The Wolfgang bridge is set further back towards the rear of the body. This makes the entire guitar more compact and shifts the neck slightly to the right. The compactness makes it more comfortable to play. EVH knew what he was doing.
Trying to decide? Great playing but the guitar sounds too bright?
Parang emotional tayo ah.. evh!
🔥🔥🔥
Yown!!!!
How come mine didnt come with a tone split knob? lol
Mod it ;)
@@OfficialPerfectoDeCastro 🤣
@@OfficialPerfectoDeCastro What's the mod you're using in this video? I'd like to do the same to mine!
Nice guitar. I wonder if this guitar model, is better than his 1st. model (peavy or music man) back in `91
I still think the Ernie Ball has the best silhouette, both the body and the headstock. I do wish Music Man would do a carved top Axis, though.
@@30smsuperstratyea, that Ernie Ball version is cooler look, but the head stock on the 2nd version is cool looking.
Peavey was first, then music man, now Fender. I owned a Peavey and now a Fender. I think the Fender is better between the two - never played a music man.
OOPs wrong order. MM - Peavey - Fender
@@smokinjoe4709 ok, I just check. Music Man & then Peavey. a Music Man guitar is for sale on Reverb and it tells the history of them (Ed's) and it has pictures of the ad when Ed started using them. I remember that 1 pic. when Ed is in the studio with that guitar, I was like wth. Looked up Peavey also, 96-04. their on Wiki
@@smokinjoe4709 nah, Music Man and then Peavey. I looked it up again. I remember in HS, that ad, picture of Ed in the studio, posing with the Music Man. has the same head stock as the Steve Morse's guitar. I tried to post the link of MM from Reverb & Wiki of them, but TH-cam doesn't allow it any longer.
i have a 90's peavey and i wouldn't call it very versatile because it's got a scooped sound and a deep bass you don't get with anything PAF type. you can compensate by using both pickups and the neck pickup for warm clean jazz (?) sounds but again, it will not give you that midrange PAF sound you get with ac/dc or classic rock or blues. nails that new eddie tone and modern rock though... even the stuff you hear at the 2 minute mark sounds nice but it's far from the sound you'd hear from a es335 or something like that...
I’ve been wanting to put a coil split in my Wolfgang standard but so far I can’t find anyone who explain to me what I’d have to do to wire it with how the EVHs are wired
The 4 conductors are at the toggle switch side, not the potentiometer side
Thanks. I get so sick of seeing people play an artists guitar and only playing their tunes. Sell the guitar not the person it is made after.
It's not "made after Eddie" it was completely designed by Eddie.
👍👏👏
🌼🌼🌼
My leaves Wolfgang is not very versatile. It does bright scooped well but PAF type midrange bluesy stuff not so much. Don't plug it into a tweed and try doing Peter green or bluesbreakers
sana ol naka EVH 🤣🤣🤣
My evh wolfgang seems to be more twangy sounding rather than that electronic noise
Engl amp head 👀
Yessss hehehe
Maganda pala lips ng maestro😂
ENGL REALLY?!?!?! WTF?!?!?!
Hendrix was the greatest not van halen.
Jimi is up there 🤘🏻🤘🏻
For his time but eddie would have embarrassed hendrix
