Summary

The EVH 5150® Series DX with baked maple is built for speed, comfort, and full-throttle performance—blending classic Van Halen vibe with modern upgrades. It features a modified Strat-style basswood body, a graphite-reinforced baked maple neck, and a 12"-16" compound radius fingerboard with jumbo frets for smooth, fast playability. Loaded with dual EVH Wolfgang® Alnico 2 humbuckers, you get punchy, articulate bridge tones and a powerful, sustain-rich neck pickup with great clean roll-off. A kill switch adds stutter effects, while the volume and tone controls are designed for precision and stability. It’s dive-bomb ready with an EVH Floyd Rose® bridge and D-Tuna®, letting you instantly switch between standard and drop D tuning. 🎨 Confirmed 2026 colors (so far): Candy Apple Red Metallic ✅ (officially listed) Pacific Drift (on the quilt maple DX QM version) The standard DX (Baked Maple) model is currently shown in Candy Apple Red Metallic. The DX QM (quilt maple top) version adds a more premium finish like Pacific Drift. #EVHGear #EddieVanHalen #GuitarGear #JohnnyBeaneTV
