For the past two years, Eddie Van Halen has been extensively testing the new EVH Wolfgang electric guitar. Now, it’s finally ready.
Starting January 2009, you can pick up your very own EVH guitar worldwide.
“A guitar is a very personal extension of the person playing it. You have to be emotionally and spiritually connected to your instrument. I could have just stayed at home and built this guitar for myself. I do this because a lot of people ask if they can get what I use. Well, yes you can and what you get is identical to what I use,” Van Halen said. “From the basics of the guitar to painstaking aspects like the binding and everything else-we re-did everything on this guitar.”

Van Helen’s “no brown M&M’s” concert rider has finally been explained, thanks to the estate of a concert promoter, which dusted off a copy for the Smoking Gun.
The 10-page document makes colorful demands, along with other outrageous requests for a “successful show.” The document and requests were allegedly created in order to determine if the bean-counters were actually paying attention to more important matters, such as providing four-pronged metal forks, and a few packs of specific brand cigarettes.
The M&M demand also required the backstage presence of canned malt liquor, herring in sour cream and a single tube of K-Y jelly. More details of the document can be found on thesmokinggun.com.
