EVH SA-126 Special: Innovation in Every Note
In 2024, EVH continues to push the boundaries of guitar design with the introduction of the SA-126 Special. This guitar represents Wolfgang Van Halen?s vision of a modern instrument that meets the demands of today's musicians. The SA-126 is a unique hybrid, combining elements of both semi-hollow and solid body guitars to create a versatile and powerful tool for any player.
Built for Versatility and Tone
The SA-126 features a chambered mahogany body with a basswood center block, offering the stability and resonance needed for a rich, full-bodied sound. The maple top, available in both solid and quilt finishes, is complemented by 5-ply body binding, adding to the guitar's visual and tonal appeal. The 22-fret neck, made from a graphite-reinforced mahogany, boasts a 12?-16? compound radius ebony fingerboard with jumbo frets and triple block inlays, providing a comfortable and familiar playing experience.
Custom-Designed Pickups and Hardware
At the heart of the SA-126 are custom EVH? SA-126 humbucking pickups, developed by Fender?s renowned pickup designer Tim Shaw in collaboration with Wolfgang Van Halen. These pickups deliver a wide range of tones, from glassy cleans to aggressive overdrive, making this guitar suitable for any musical style. The three-way toggle switch allows players to select between the bridge, bridge and neck, or neck pickups, while the dual volume and tone controls provide precise tonal adjustments.
Attention to Detail
Additional features include an EVH? Harmonica bridge and stop bar tailpiece for superior tuning stability, oversized strap buttons, and keystone tuning pegs. The spoke wheel truss rod adjustment at the neck's base allows for easy on-the-fly tweaks. The SA-126 is as visually striking as it is sonically impressive, with a matte Army Drab finish and a case wrapped in Ivory vinyl with blue crushed velvet interior, ensuring that your guitar looks as good as it sounds.
