I played a used one at my local Sam Ash the other day and it SOUNDED STUIPD INSANE!

Played like a dream and the neck pickup is just fat as heck and sings like a bird...

I was totaly blown away by this guitar, not cheap on the street but I gotz serious hookups

The bridge pickup sounds amazing too... what a killer axe this is, took me by surprise!

I'm sitting here about to snap all over the place... (twitch's profusely)

Is that a peavey, musicman or a new EVH (Fender) model???
That's the EVH Stealth, a new EVH Fender model for '11. EVH is actually using it in the studio right now. First time he's used ebony boards.
 
yeah loved my wolfgang. only thing i hated was the upper fret access was more like a LP - and if i cant reach the upper registers, then it serves no good. im also a fan of floating trems vs stop trems/down only, so thats basically why i got rid of mine. i also hated the location of the bridge/neck switch - being like an LP i would always hit it by accident tapping on the neck, or if i needed to go from neck back to bridge pickup you had to make sure you hit it pretty hard, otherwise you would go from neck to both pickups - the switch wouldnt click all the way into place.

great guitar, but having owned it for 4 years you pick out the neunces. one thing though, that guitar was a tone beast. just not player friendly. YMMV.
 
I played that EVH Stealth at NAMM....sounds great and plays like a dream! I just wish the frets were bigger, not really digging the vintage small's..... :no:
 
Because it's an incredible instrument, that sounds amazing and plays fantastic? I really have zero issues with anything about it. If I'd designed it, I may have gone with a different body style, but otherwise...

That's always been my issue with the wolfgang style guitars. I love the neck profile, but I like medium to medium jumbo frets.
 
I snapped and bought this brand spanking new one today...

Got a SMOKIN DEAL!!!

EVH is all about the wood!

i think i would take the Cort NZ-2 or NZ-1 over this. I like the body shape better, and it has the same neck shape. And its WAY more affordable.
 
That guitar is awesome. I actually like the black version that looks like a LP custom. Congrats man.
