Anyone have experience with quality of the Floyd's on these? I'll have to do some digging…

Looking at them on reverb, that Bocote can be beautiful.. or ugly.
Think I'll roll the dice and hope I get a good looking one. I have VIP Pro at Adorama, so can return if not.

FWIW, I've had a fantastic experience with Adorama customer service after UPS busted up a shipment. They sent me a replacement with free next day shipping. My return was refunded within a week or so of shipping it back.

These are Made in Indonesia and have Floyd Rose Specials. The Wolfgang Special feels more premium being Made in Mexico with EVH branded Floyd Rose. I've played both and I'd hold out for a Special if it was me. But these do have the same pickups and overall feel.

EVH was a great musician and his final take on the "super stratocaster" is the nicest of all such guitars

FYSA, the green quilt top standard is also $499 (link below), doesn't look like any specials are on sale though Frown, where the main difference that I care about is the Floyd upgrade from a Special to 1000 series.

If you are a beginning guitarist, the Standards is a great starting point for your first guitar. If you are a seasoned player, the Specials are great, well built with quality workmanship although they cost much more than Standards and do not go on sale as often as Standards.

I don't know. For some reason I can't get into the wood grain on the body of these guitars. Reminds me of my grandma's kitchen cabinets in her 1970s doublewide.

Yeah those also have the D-Tuna which can be handy. My brother has one and it plays and feels beautiful.

EVH/Fender models are made in Mexico. They also make a few in Corona, California which is their top of the line models and highest priced of all EVH guitars. EVH/Fender recently announced that some EVH guitars will be made in Japan.

If the difference is like $200 anyway, I'd just get one of these and put a Schaller Lockmeister on it. They're the OEM for Floyd Rose and make their Original series. The Lockmeister is a drop-in replacement for Originals. I think I can still snag them from a supplier for around that much

This is not the signature series. This is the cheap series made mostly in indonesia.
