PRE-OWNED 2001 Peavey EVH Wolfgang Special with Peavey Hard Shell Case

The 2001 Peavey EVH Wolfgang Special – A Legendary Collaboration with Iconic Tone

Designed for High-Performance Rock

Born from the groundbreaking collaboration between Peavey and Edward Van Halen, the 2001 Wolfgang Special delivers the punch, precision, and playability that helped define an era of modern rock guitar. This USA-made model from the (defunct) Leakesville, Mississippi factory captures the spirit of Eddie’s relentless pursuit of tonal excellence and stage-ready reliability.

Handcrafted American Construction

Crafted in the early 2000s, this Wolfgang Special represents the peak of Peavey’s custom shop expertise. Featuring a carved top, sleek basswood body, and a bolt-on maple neck with a comfortable asymmetrical profile, it was engineered for fast playing and smooth transitions across the fretboard. Its natural resonance and ergonomic contours make it a formidable tool for players who crave performance without compromise.

EVH-Voiced Electronics

This guitar is equipped with a pair of EVH-designed humbuckers, wired to Eddie’s exacting standards for searing high-gain tones and pristine cleans. The tone circuitry features a simple, intuitive layout: one volume and a three-way selector—keeping the player focused on expression and control without distraction.

Played In, Ready to Perform

While this instrument shows evidence of its road-tested life—scratches and dents near the pickups, lower bout, treble horn, and headstock—it remains in excellent condition both structurally and sonically. It has been well-maintained and continues to offer uncompromised playability and tone. These signs of wear are a testament to its legacy, reflecting a life of real-world music making.
