The Electric Guitar's Long, Strange Trip
Fit & Finish. We visually check your instrument for any scratches, dings, finish flaws, or other aesthetic imperfections. We also pay attention to the neck, bridge, tuners, and any other part of the guitar that could be a loose or incorrect fit.
Buzzes. Nothing drives me nuts more than a buzz. If there’s a loose tuner bushing, rattling truss rod, or any other similar symptom, we’ll find it & fix it.
Neck & Frets. We inspect the neck angle so that your guitar has the appropriate amount of saddle height and a good break angle. If there are any loose or high frets, we will address this problem too.

Relief. Along with the action, neck relief can really make a difference in a guitar’s playability. Too little and you can get fret buzz & poor volume. Too much, and your guitar can be uncomfortable, especially in the middle of the neck.
Intonation. Your new guitar should play in tune all the way up the neck. We inspect and adjust the intonation to ensure that you don’t have any tuning problems higher up, with and without a capo.
Electronics. If your guitar comes with a pickup system, we will test it before it ships. Poor sound, uneven string balance, and just plain component failure are all checked & corrected so you don’t have to fool around with it.

Eddie Van Halen's Electric Guitar
If Eddie Van Halen could have ordered his dream guitar in the late '70s, what would it have looked like? EVH has answered this with the Eddie Van Halen Striped Series of guitars -- delivering an unblemished modern take on the guitar hero's most iconic axes.
Striped and Set Up Like Eddie'sCountless aspiring shredders took to their axes with paint cans after Van Halen erupted on the scene. While it might have been a fun DIY project, it's now much easier for EVH luthiers to do the work for you when you order a brand-new, professionally made version of Eddie's Frankenstein. EVH has also fitted this version with a quartersawn maple neck for the same look as his iconic guitar. One of the most subtle touches is the single volume knob -- it's labeled as a tone knob, just like on the original.
Upgrades Add Tonal Range The EVH Eddie Van Halen Striped Series guitars build upon the legend's original homemade guitar with modern features. EVH has issued his own branded locking tremolo system for players embarking on warbling whammy dive bombs. The bridge comes equipped with the D-Tuna system -- a best friend for players who instantly want to drop their low E string down a whole step for heavier chugging. The sole pickup is an EVH Wolfgang humbucker in the bridge position. Naturally, these guitars were developed with help from Eddie Van Halen himself, who oversaw 80 pickup prototypes before approving the type featured in Striped Series guitars.
