Striped Series
(Black with Yellow Stripes)
Innovative and iconicAfter years of being copied, the EVH Striped Series guitars put Eddie Van Halen's historic and authentic style in your hands. These are high powered, high-performance machines that look as good as they play. The Striped Series guitar is made of a basswood Stratocaster®-style body decked out in Eddie's famed striped graphics in Black with Yellow Stripes.
This unique guitar also includes a graphite-reinforced bolt-on quartersawn maple neck with a hand-rubbed oil finish on the back, 12"-16" maple fingerboard with 22 jumbo frets and black dot inlays and a thumbwheel truss rod adjustment wheel for convenient neck relief tweaks.
Powered by a single powerful direct-mount Wolfgang® humbucking bridge pickup, the Striped Series guitars also feature a single skirted Strat-style volume control knob (labeled "tone") that houses a 500K EVH® Bourns® low friction pot with treble bleed circuit, bar string retainer and Floyd Rose® locking nut, EVH-branded Floyd Rose® locking tremolo with EVH D-Tuna®, EVH die-cast tuners, chrome hardware, vintage-style strap buttons, EVH neck plate and licensed Fender® Strat® headstock.

Modified "C" Neck Backshape
bright tone with more controlA bolt-on neck construction joins the maple neck to the body of the guitar using screws or bolts, resulting in bright tone with more control. The quartersawn grain runs the length of the neck and along with being visually appealing, is less susceptible to shrinking, warping or splitting.
Graphite-reinforcement rods flank the truss rod for even more additional neck stability, while your fretting hand will feel right at home on the modified “C”-shape neck, which has a .790” thickness at the 3rd fret and .825” at the 12th fret.
12"-16" Compound Radius Fingerboard
22 Jumbo FretsThe 12"-16" Compound Radius Maple Fingerboard design gradually flattens toward the heel from its smaller and more rounded profile at the nut for improved comfort when chording and riffing near the nut with seamless bending near the heel.
Maple is a dense wood that produces bright, snappy tones, articulate notes with bite and a tight low end. Versus a 24-fret neck, a 22-fret layout shifts the neck pickup farther away from the bridge, centering it at the “sweet spot” and resulting in a warmer overall tone. The jumbo fret wire slightly increases the distance between string and fingerboard for seamless and comfortable bends.
Direct Mount EVH Wolfgang Pickup
Legendary ToneNot all humbuckers are made the same, the direct mount EVH Wolfgang humbucker with Alnico 2 magnets is hotter and assists Eddie’s scorching signature lead tone that captivated the world of rock ‘n’ roll in the ‘70s and ‘80s.
This humbucking bridge pickup delivers plenty of rich harmonics, cutting highs and snarling mids.
EVH-Branded Floyd Rose
R3 LOCKING NUT & EVH D-TUNAEddie Van Halen was the first player to popularize the innovative Floyd Rose locking tremolo, even advising Floyd Rose on his early designs to integrate round disc finger-type tuners found on a cello or violin. Now universally knwon, the EVH-branded Floyd Rose bridge features our EVH logo stamped on the bridge plate, steel saddles and a solid brass block.
The Floyd Rose bridge and R3 (43 mm) locking nut is a professional-grade double-locking design that secures the strings in the saddle and nut, providing great tuning stability and dynamic tremolo action. Standard equipment on Eddie’s personal guitars since the early ‘90s, the EVH D-Tuna is a unique patented device that allows players to drop the E to D and back instantly.
