Description
The EVH Striped Series Frankenstein Frankie Maple in Red with Black Stripes Relic is built for players who want the look, feel, and response of Eddie's original Frankenstein guitar. If you're chasing that early Van Halen era attack and attitude, this one gets you there visually and sonically. The relic finish captures the worn-in character, complete with the red base and black striping that made the original a stage icon.
This model features a maple body paired with a bolt-on maple neck and maple fingerboard, giving you that bright, cutting response and fast attack that defined so many classic rock tones. The 12" radius and 22 jumbo frets keep bends smooth and controlled. A single EVH Frankenstein humbucking pickup in the bridge position delivers focused output with strong mids and tight low end. The Floyd Rose Original double-locking tremolo and Floyd Rose R2 locking nut provide the tuning stability needed for aggressive dive bombs and expressive vibrato.
It's a purpose-built instrument with a simple control layout; one volume and a three-position toggle wired bridge, off, neck just like the original concept. We like this one because it's not just about the graphic; it's about capturing the raw, direct playing experience that made that guitar legendary. It feels immediate, responsive, and ready to be pushed.
