The limited edition EVH Star is a modern interpretation of (although not quite a re-creation of) one of the guitars that Eddie Van Halen used to attain the early Van Halen sound. Experience resonant tone, sustain, and crunch thanks to a basswood body and single EVH Wolfgang humbucker. Fire off cool stutter effects with the momentary kill switch. Outfitted with a comfortable maple neck and fast-playing ebony compound-radius fingerboard, blasting our pummeling riffs or lightning licks has never been easier. Beyond that, a top-mounted Floyd Rose tremolo with D Tuna yields massive sustain, also allowing you to dive bomb and shift to a Drop D tuning on the fly. The EVH Ltd Ed Star is teeming with classic Van Halen vibe, but most importantly, it provides killer tone and lightning-fast playability.
