There are very few guitars out there that are as famous as Eddie Van Halens favorite 6-string sidekick lovingly known as Frankenstein. This guitar was Eddies attempt to combine the sound of a classic single-cut solid body guitar with the physical attributes and tremolo bar functionality of a Fender Stratocaster. The EVH Frankenstein Frankie Series is a civilian variant of Eddie Van Halens iconic red black and white Frankenstrat guitarcomplete with a worn-in relicd finish. Built from a solid chunk of basswood this solid-body electric guitar growls with the best of them while exhibiting rock-solid mids that can cut through a manic rhythm section with ease. A direct-mount Wolfgang humbucker nails Eddies classic tone especially when you use it to push a high gain amp. Equipped with a svelte quartersawn maple neck and fast-playing compound-radius relicd maple fingerboard this guitar is born to shred. Intentionally positioned against the body the dive-bomb-only D-Tuna-equipped Floyd Rose lets you mimic Eddies signature trem work with ease along with giving you instant access to Drop D tuning. The EVH Frankenstein Series models are teeming with classic Van Halen vibe but most importantly it provides killer tone and lightningfast playability.Fast-playing compound-radius relic’d maple fingerboard
