Borrowing a range of officially lisenced features from Fenders iconic Stratocaster design, this EVH Striped Series '78 Eruption riffs on the classic design while paying homage to the heavily modified striped instrument that made it's debut on the cover of Van Halen’s 1978 eponymous debut album.

Named after the pioneering Eruption solo that it was perfomed upon, this heavy modified and reliced guitar boasts a range of innovative and mould-breaking modifications that only the likes of Eddie Van Halen would concieve.

With a single EVH Wolfgang humbucking pickup in the bridge, you've got classic Eddie Van Halen guitar tone – from crystal cleans to fat and rich mids and lows.

Backed up with a Bolt-On Quartersawn Maple Graphite Reinforced Modified 'C' Neck, alongside a 6-Saddle Vintage-Style Fender Strat Synchronized Brass Tremolo System and EVH-Branded Gotoh Tuners, you've got superior playability and stability to match - the perfect option for players who want to walk in the shoes of one of the most inventive guitar players of our time.
