EVH EVH Striped Series Frankenstein Frankie 6-String Electric Guitar (Red with Black Stripes Relic) Bundle with EVH Wolfgang Solid Body Electric Guitar Weather-Resistant Hard Case(Black) (2 Items)

Widely regarded as the most recognizable electric guitar ever, Eddie Van Halen’s iconic and revered Frankenstein now comes your way with a price tag the everyday musician can afford in the form of the EVH Striped Series Frankenstein Frankie Guitar . Sporting Eddie’s famed red with a white-and-black-striped paint job and a worn-in reliced look, the all-new Frankie features a basswood Stratocaster-style body paired with a graphite-reinforced quartersawn maple neck. An oiled finish on the back of the neck allows for hours of playing comfort, while the 12 to 16 inch compound radius maple fingerboard with 22 jumbo frets was designed for fast and furious playing styles. Routed for an HSS pickup configuration just like Eddie’s original, Frankie features an EVH Wolfgang humbucking bridge pickup with a dummy Strat neck pickup and a dummy five-way blade housed in the middle position. A sturdy and dependable EVH-branded Floyd Rose locking trem and Floyd Rose locking nut work in tandem for precise tuning even with extreme changes in pitch, while the EVH D-Tuna retunes to drop-D and back with strict accuracy at the flick of a finger Bolt-On Quartersawn Maple Neck with Eddie Van Halen's Modified C Backshape Bolt-on is a type of neck construction that joins the maple neck to the body of the guitar with screws or bolts, resulting in a bright tone with more control. The quartersawn grain runs the length of the neck and as well as being visually appealing is less susceptible to shrinking, warping, or splitting. Graphite-reinforcement rods flank the truss rod for even more increased neck stability, while your fretting hand will feel right at home on the modified C-shape neck, which has a .790-in thickness at the 3rd fret and .825-in at the 12th fret.
