The Wolfgang® WG Standard QM 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, this axe features a basswood body with special “comfort cut” forearm contour for maximum playing ease, along with attractive masked-off natural body binding and an elegant quilt maple top. 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 a smooth 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 domed 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 instrument in tune through the deepest whammy dives and horse whinnies. Tested live onstage where it counts, the Wolfgang WG Standard QM is decked out for playing performance and comfort, and available in an array of stage-stealing new finishes featuring black headstocks and black chrome hardware. 25.5” scale length Basswood body with special “comfort cut” forearm contour and quilt maple top Masked-off natural body binding Graphite-reinforced bolt-on baked maple neck Neck is carved and rolled to Eddie Van Halen’s specifications with an oiled finish on the back 12”-16” compound radius baked maple fingerboard with 22 jumbo frets and black dot inlays Heel-mount truss rod adjustment spoke wheel Dual direct mount EVH® Wolfgang® humbucking pickups Three-way toggle switch, single volume control and single tone control EVH-branded Floyd Rose® Special bridge and R2 locking nut Available in Black Fade, Chlorine Burst, Northern Lights, Tahiti Night or Transparent Amber with black headstock and black chrome hardware Body Body Shape: Wolfgang® Body Material: Basswood Body Finish: Gloss Urethane Body Top: Quilt Maple Neck Neck Material: Baked Maple Neck Shape: Wolfgang® Backshape, 0.790" @ 3rd - .880" @ 12th Scale Length: 25.5" (648 mm) Fingerboard Radius: 12" to 16" Compound Radius (304.8 mm to 406.4 mm) Number of Frets: 22 Fret Size: Jumbo String Nut: Floyd Rose® R2 Locking Nut Width: 1.625" (41.3 mm) Truss Rod Nut: Heel-Mount Truss Rod Adjustment Wheel Headstock: EVH® Wolfgang® Neck Plate: NA Neck Finish: Oiled Fingerboard: Baked Maple Position Inlays: Black Dot Electronics Bridge Pickup: Direct Mount EVH® Wolfgang® Humbucking Neck Pickup: Direct Mount EVH® Wolfgang® Humbucking Controls: Volume, Tone Pickup Switching: 3-Position Toggle: Position 1.
