Wolfgang humbucker and special pots
The electric tone conversion of the EVH Wolfang EB SB Silverburst is handled by two EVH Wolfgang humbuckers developed by Eddie van Halen himself. With their hot Output and balanced output across all frequencies, these pickups deliver a fat rock sound that makes every solo sing with endless Sustain, while the precise attack and perfect string separation ensure a tight rhythm sound. The pickups are controlled via a 3-way toggle switch as well as general volume and tone controls, which have different rotary resistors. The particularly smooth-running volume pot enables violin-like sound fades, while the slower-running tone pot is immune to unwanted adjustments.
Floyd Rose with EVH D-Tuna
In addition, the EVH Wolfgang Special is equipped with a Floyd Rose tremolo, which ensures perfect tuning stability even with the most aggressive dive bombs and squeals. The EVH D-Tuna on the low E-string enables lightning-fast tuning changes to drop tunings without the Vibrato having to be laboriously adjusted. The characteristic headstock features furthermore precise die-cast tuners.
