Shredding machine with maximum access

This is a "superstrat to the max"... lightning speed neck, best bolt-on junction (Stephens Extended Cutaway), awesome action, screaming pickups, versatile Floyd trem. Need I say more? Oh, watch Nuno Bettencourt playing one! :-D

is it a 90s one? the old ones were the sweetest

Actually, mine is a 2006 or 2007... a very balanced instrument, IMHO. The pre-2000 models have an aura of their own, don't they? Especially the Davies ones... ;-)

A sweet Les Paul model with that extra EVH bite...

Fans of the Gibson Les Paul must try this sweet guitar... so comfortable to play, easy to tame (soundwise) and capable of being both full/round sounding or edgy/harsh. Great job by Eddie Van Halen and the crew at Fender/EVH factory.

The most complete and dependable guitar ever!

Ken Parker is a visionar. He devised a tool for guitarists, using an exoskeleton (of carbon fiber and glass fiber), which allows you to go (musically) anywhere you want. The closest to perfection, ever.

Tone excellency, perfect feel and balance

This guitar is the best of two worlds between what Steve Morse thinks it's the perfect guitar (evolution from his "Frankenstein" Telecaster) and what Joe Bonamassa felt he could add (thinking of one of his Les Paul models).

It's an extremely versatile guitar, balanced, rich sounding, with all the ingredients that make it a high-end guitar. Adding to the fact, it is flawlessly/custom made at EB/MM factory at San Luis Obispo in California (USA).

The classic, only switchless

The classic sound of the wah-wah pedal, switchless; just step on it and waaaaaaaah!

A monster at your feet...

Endless possibilities, all configurable via PC or tablet; great sounding device. A must.

Two monster tones

Overdrive + distortion in one pedal, super rich sound, a kind of holy grail.

All-in-one

Great studio pedal... everything you may want, in such a small enclosure.

Best gain combo

If you are playing out and can only bring one stompbox with you, this is it.

mogwai73

Best studio gear

Don't record on the studio without this... wow!

The compression standard

Robert Keeley took the compression to another level.

2-in-one, with the EVH settings

The standard Flanger, with Eddie's settings at the tip of a button.

Plexi drive

If you are looking for the Super Lead 100 overdriven sound in a box, this is a good way to start.

2-in-1

If you forget the stripes, you still have the "block logo" and the "script logo" versions in one enclosure.

Soldano sound...

In the early 90's, when Eddie Van Halen was playing Ernie Ball/Music Man guitars, he was into Soldano amps; this is Hartley Peavey's effort to replicate what Eddie wanted.

yeah, the 1st version is really close to a SLO100 circuit with ingerior PCB material, more readily available comonents, off the shelf transformers and a slight voicing tweak to up gain and smooth the high end to be less razor-like... yet somehow those changes add up to make it very little like the SLO

Raw power, awesome looks

This is not your average Wolfgang guitar... the ebony fingerboard makes it more agressive than the maple counterpart. It's great, if you are looking for that raw power!
