EVH 5150 Series Deluxe Poplar Burl Basswood 6-String Electric Guitar (Right-Handed, Aqua Burst)

Engineered for speed, comfort, and full-throttle attitude, the reimagined EVH 5150 Series Deluxe Poplar Burl 6-String Electric Guitar is an iconic blast from the past that blends both throwback and modernized features. Like its predecessor, the 5150 Deluxe Poplar Burl features a modified Strat-style basswood body with a deeper upper body curve. The graphite-reinforced bolt-on Quartersawn maple neck features a comfortable modified C profile, hand-rubbed satin urethane back finish, heel-mount truss rod adjustment wheel, and color-matched hockey stick headstock with EVH logo decal. Built for smooth and speedy playability, the 12-16 inch compound radius ebony fingerboard has 22 jumbo frets and cream dot inlays. While the famed striped original had a single humbucking bridge pickup only, the all-new 5150 Deluxe is outfitted with an HH pickup configuration controlled by a three-way toggle on the upper bout. The custom-designed EVH Wolfgang Alnico 2 humbucking bridge pickup delivers the perfect amount of punch and articulation with sweet sustain and thick chunky rhythms in a perfectly balanced EQ curve.

Mechanism

The EVH Wolfgang Alnico 2 humbucking neck pickup serves up no-nonsense, balls-to-the-wall overdrive and endless sustain without skimping on articulate cleans when the volume is rolled down. A custom-designed low-friction volume knob creates even-volume tapering for the smoothest volume swells, while the high-friction tone knob will stay in place even if accidentally bumped. An added new feature comes in the way of a lower bout kill switch, allowing you to mute your guitar for that stutter, and rhythmic effects. Decked out with a dive-bomb certified EVH-branded top-mount Floyd Rose bridge, the locking tailpiece features fine tuners for each string and a patented EVH D-Tuna for switching back and forth from drop-D to standard tuning in an instant. A stylized modern spin on a fan favorite, the 5150 Deluxe is sure to stun with a unique poplar burl top that is wrapped in Aqua Burst and finished off with all-chrome hardware, including the EVH-branded Gotoh tuning machines.

Modified Strat-Style Body with Poplar Burl Top

Topped with an eccentric-looking poplar burl wood, the modified Strat-style body features a deeper upper body curve reminiscent of the early super-Strat body styles and hugs your frame for increased performance comfort.
