The EVH Striped Series evokes the vibe and performance of Eddie Van Halen's famous red, white, and black striped solidbody electric guitar. This axe's growling tone starts with a basswood body. A custom-designed bridge humbucker delivers full lows, crisp highs, and hot-rodded mids that exhibit truckloads of crunch and singing sustain. Experience extreme playability by way of a quartersawn modified C-shaped maple neck with hand-rubbed back finish. And perform extreme dive-bombs with an EVH Floyd Rose tremolo.
The Zoom F8N Multitrack Field Recorder was used to record the audio in this video, and can be purchased here: www.sweetwater.com/store/deta...

GREAT Playing! Been following you since Grim Reaper.i just bought the yello and black evh.Rip Eddie,God bless your family. And keep Tapping

[@jameswalkenhorst8945]

Nice demo especially like the last one ... good job man!

[@rareozzyvideos4103]

They really need to make more guitars and basses for lefty’s

[@Zoso7227]

We don’t get the cool period correct in lefty’s 😔

[@Dirtydrock001]

Since im lefty i always wanted to check out this guys guitars

[@JohnnyBeane]

Sweet guitars Nick!!! Awesome man!!!

[@2yugen2]

Nice playing and demo.

[@zenmaster1752]

Great review ! I think i am gonna buy one even if i don't like Floyd Rose system because it is hard to set up when you are not a pro. I am a left handed guitarist too and i really enjoy your videos. This guitar sounds awesome. I will have to test is vs my Jackson RR1T which is my fav' guitar of all time, but not the same price.

[@guitarplayerstowohio]

Well played, sir!

[@MrBHBjr]

Love this guy!

[@leonskum.5682]

Fellow lefty here. Great to see it and there's one still available that I'm very tempted to pull the trigger on!!!!

[@Strato13]

Yes! Mine comes in tomorrow by afternoon via FedEx next day! Via SweetWater! Also a lefty! Thanks Brian!

[@leonskum.5682]

Fellow lefty here. How how is it?

[@bartholomeusclever]

love to try out an evh ... but i think it will be rather a peavey or music man made guitar i'll try out first ... maybe then try a fender ... i know eddie loves fender!

[@jetzielo.rodriguezcrespo3039]

Yes finally a Left one!😭

[@johannesrindt2569]

No harm intended with this comment, but he just looks like he's a right handed playing a leftie.

[@dasaplays3112]

We all know how great the guitar sounds while we play rock and metal on it.. would love to listen some clean tones and overall versatility of the guitar as I am sure that the guitar would certainly serve all kinds of playing

[@superrookie-1]

Nah not really, with the one volume nob, and the single pick-up it's a pure rock axe

[@laudirjunior8922]

I want one!

[@TheOnlyHollywood1]

Does anyone know if they've made the 78 Eruption and Bumblebee left handed yet?

[@Smurfman256]

Ouch, that intro got knocked way out of tune X(

[@mojo-hand4539]

Anyone know where these are made?

[@davidkastin4240]

Mexico I think.

[@leftyshep]

Stay strong for us Southpaws Nick!!

[@leftyshep]

I e got the USA and the special.....now need to add a lefty striped

[@MrMike-fm8bp]

Wow

[@edwardwaldron7813]

Yeah no doubt I’m struggling to find a left hand Kramer even without the EVH brand

[@kip6963]

Its not a 5150 as you mentioned. A tribute to Ed's Frankenstein. But nice demo and playing Sir!

[@nathanieldelrosario1324]

would this be a good beginner guitar??

[@sweetwater]

Hey, Nathaniel! What guitar you start with really depends on what style and sound you want to go for, and what your goals are. This can be a great guitar for a beginner or an experienced player if it's the right fit for the player. I would be happy to go in to detail about it with you if you want to call or email me. Thanks for your interest! Connor Smith, Sweetwater Sales Engineer, [phone] ext. 1793, [e-mail]

[@nathanieldelrosario1324]

@@sweetwater Okay thanks for helping me out

[@goliathyeti1669]

Id stay away from a floyd rose starting out

[@victormurillo6956]

So this is the 5150? What’s the difference between the other striped series?

[@kevingraiani1324]

The 5150 is a different model with Hamer style headstock which is also striped, this is the EVH Striped series.

[@harrisstutzman1850]

1:50 lmaoo

[@stratsteveo106]

Just got mine today. I dig it, probably wont keep it long. I want to trade for a deluxe strat so we will see

[@mikemann8985]

Great videos everyone of them boss amp my favorite with mitch.

[@christophercostantini5361]

Anytime I see this guy doing a review I know to immediately find a different video

[@Smart-Alex]

Sometimes it's easier to say nothing than to go out of your way to put someone down.

[@armara70]

Is it me, or does this have a darker, heavier tone than what I associate with Eddie?

[@tinpenny4474]

How much $

[@kevingraiani1324]

$999...the new reliced one will be $1699 if they ever ship

[@jmmonroe9670]

I own one. It was on my bucket list. lol I love it!

[@sulutkin]

At last, I live on Finland and it's almost impossible to find decent Floyd Rose type of guitar as a leftie. Now I have Ibanez RG550 and have had awful problems with different strings nines and tens sets, it hard and heavy to play and impossible even to bend properly I can't even play E-blues on 12th fret and bend without fingers going under strings and this has never ever happened before.

[@stormsonicspeed1]

What? I have the dame guitar and i dont have these problems

[@chriscrooks8617]

Great review but they are not that affordable.

[@adalbertomejia8791]

They were affordable... 4 years ago

[@aldrich1201]

If a band used this guitar in concert would they get sued by Eddie Van Halen?

[@notoknotok]

Nope, if you payed for the guitar then it’s completely yours, since its an EVH and not a knockoff

[@jimlewis9260]

a goof a real goof

[@SLAMSTERDAMN]

Aaarrghhh, the finger tapping...😣

[@kenmasters007]

I thought he said best guitar in "Hogwarts"history.... Which would be acceptable to me too lol

[@Rwtheking]

You’re a Wizard Eddie.

[@MontourR]

Unchained from wish 😂

[@blankpallet2435]

The neck is put on ever guitar made when your lazy = quarter sawn ,wow its piece of carved block nothing special ,no thank you

[@stefanpalicki3538]

What, just because the guitar doesn't have a 16 piece maple/walnut/padauk/wenge neck it sucks?

[@notoknotok]

This is by far the most idiotic comment I’ve ever seen, not only had your grammar gone to shit, but you’re throwing a temper tantrum over the fact the neck isn’t 6 billion pieces. It’s made to the spec of Eddie Van Halen, you know, the guitar god. If you don’t like it, don’t buy it

[@malikon6953]

look at the light reflecting off the finish? It's all lumpy and nasty. Better to just get a Charvel, you're paying for a good guitar and not the name on the headstock.

[@Ron_Padgett]

Meh.
