He played this guitar on his unprecedented and mind-blowing \"Eruption\" guitar solo, thus its nickname, and almost immediately, this monumental instrument became a timeless icon, symbolic of a paradigm shift in guitar-driven rock and roll.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBack when this trailblazing album first appeared, nobody had ever seen or heard a guitar like that because no such guitar ever existed. What was this? You couldn't buy one.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThat's because he made it himself. The 22-year-old Eddie Van Halen had the mind of not only a great musician, but also of an innovative inventor - a constant tinkerer who was always messing with his gear. Eddie would say it was out of necessity as no off-the-shelf guitar had the features he needed to really do his job and realize his full potential. So, he took matters into his own capable hands - refretting the neck, installing a humbucking pickup which he potted in paraffin wax, as well a single master volume knob (famously labeled as \"Tone\"), brass nut and tailpiece from a '58 Strat, cutting out and mounting his own homemade black and of course, coming up with iconic striped motif.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe all-new EVH® Striped Series '78 Eruption guitar combines many of those famed mods along with modernized features and a relic treatment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Stratocaster®-style body sports Eddie's famed white-and-black-striped paint job and has been paired to a quartersawn maple neck with a hand-rubbed satin urethane back finish. The 12\"-16\" compound radius maple fingerboard with 22 jumbo frets was designed for fast and furious playing styles with maximum comfort, while a heel-mount truss rod wheel makes for time-saving neck adjustments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA single EVH Wolfgang® humbucking bridge pickup provides classic Eddie Van Halen guitar tone - from crystal cleans to fat and rich mids and lows, while the brass nut and six-saddle vintage Fender® Stratocaster synchronized tremolo bridge with a 43mm brass block allow for authentic EVH tone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOther features include a skirted white Strat-style volume control knob (labeled \"tone\") with 500K EVH Bourns® low friction pot and treble bleed circuit, black pickguard, chrome hardware, oversized strap buttons, EVH neck plate and larger, '70s-style licensed Fender Strat headstock with gold EVH logo.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EVH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48597190082815,"sku":"P009728S","price":1195.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0489\/9300\/9827\/files\/2022-EVH-Striped-Series-_78-Eruption-1.jpg?v=1780000772","url":"https:\/\/www.imperialvintageguitars.com\/products\/2022-evh-striped-series-78-eruption-white-with-black-stripes-relic","provider":"Imperial Vintage Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
