The Wolfgang Standard Xotic is a serious contender for players wanting that Eddie Van Halen vibe without the premium price tag. The burl top is gorgeous, the Wolfgang pickups are aggressive and clear, and the Floyd Rose allows for some wild dive bombs. It's a great choice for rock, hard rock, and metal players who appreciate a comfortable neck and a focused, powerful sound.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Wolfgang pickups are Alnico-II, offering a more articulate, slightly warmer tone with a smoother high-end than typical ceramic pickups – more vintage-inspired.
The EVH branded Floyd Rose is generally well-regarded and relatively user-friendly, but a professional setup is always recommended for optimal performance and tuning stability.
Maple fretboards can dry out, so regular oiling with a dedicated fretboard conditioner is recommended to prevent cracking and maintain playability.
