EDDIE VAN HALEN “UNCHAINS” LONG AWAITED STRIPE SERIES “CIRCLES” GUITAR
EVH is proud to announce the release of one of the most requested guitars Eddie Van Halen has played over the years, the EVH Stripe Series “Circles” guitar made famous by Van Halen’s 1981 Unchained music video.
With an otherworldly black-and-white “circles” graphic gloss finish, the EVH Circles model is without question one of the most distinctively eye-catching guitars in the Stripe Series lineup. There’s nothing alien about the rest of this high performance tone machine, though, with its sleek Strat®-like basswood body, rock-solid quartersawn maple neck with oiled finish, fast and smooth compound-radius maple fingerboard (12”-16”) with comfortably rolled edges and 22 jumbo frets, a single ferocious EVH direct-mount pickup with single black plastic control knob (master volume), EVH Floyd Rose® with D-Tuna® bridge and locking nut, and EVH tuners.

I bought an EVH Wolfgang and it’s the best guitar I’ve ever played. The neck is the most comfortable neck of any guitar I’ve ever played, the setup was great from the start, the pickups sound amazing, it’s just the best. I played one of the Frankenstein models at Guitar Center and it played great to and its wasn’t that expensive at all. Eddie knows guitars, that’s for damn sure!
on a different note, I prefer Blade-Runner whammy bars (from Super-Vee) than those clunky locking whammy jammies. I’ve got a Blade-Runner on each of my strats. No regrets.
there was also a live video for hear about it later too!
The back of the guitar sends everyone a message.
What will be on the back of the Keith Nelson and Stevie D. (Buckcherry) signature models? “F$@k It!”? LOL. Maybe we should have a Signature Guitar Caption contest and suggest what should be written on the back of all the various signature model guitars . . .
