Built for speed, comfort and full-throttle attitude, the reimagined 5150™ Series Standard is an iconic blast from the past that blends both retrograde and modernized features.
Like its predecessor, the 5150 Standard features a modified Strat®-style basswood body with a deeper top curve. The graphite-reinforced quartersawn maple neck features a comfortable modified "C" profile, hand-rubbed satin urethane back finish, heel truss post adjustment dial and a color-coordinated “hockey stick” doll with EVH® logo decal. Designed for smooth, fast playability, the 12-16 inch compound radius maple fingerboard features 22 jumbo frets and black dot inlays.
While the famous scratched original only had a single humbucker bridge pickup, the all-new 5150 features an HH pickup configuration controlled by a three-way toggle switch on the top bout. The custom-designed EVH® Wolfgang® Alnico 2 humbucking bridge pickup delivers the perfect amount of punch and articulation with smooth sustain and thick, chunky rhythms in a perfectly balanced EQ curve. The EVH Wolfgang Alnico 2 humbucking neck pickup serves up no-nonsense overdrive, balls-to-the-wall, and endless sustain without skimping on articulate cleans when the volume is turned down. A custom-designed low-friction volume knob creates an even decrease in volume for the smoothest volume increases, while the high-friction tone knob will stay in place even if accidentally bumped. An additional new feature comes in the form of a bottom kill switch, allowing you to mute your guitar for those stutter and rhythm effects - think "You Really Got Me".
Featuring an EVH-branded "dive bomb" certified top-mount Floyd Rose® bridge, the locking tailpiece features fine tuners for each string and a patented EVH D-Tuna® for switching from drop-D to standard setting in a moment.
A high-octane, high-performance ax, the 5150 Standard boasts garish style in a neon pink or slime green finish with full chrome hardware, including EVH-branded Gotoh® tuning machines.
