Anaheim, CA (January 14, 2010) -- EVH is proud to introduce a pair of new products for 2010 and new finish options for the Wolfgang guitar model.

New this year are EVH Wolfgang pickups, which capitalize on the success of the EVH Wolfgang guitar and give guitarists the ability to use the same pickups Eddie Van Halen himself uses. Available in neck and bridge versions, both are humbucking pickups with four-conductor wire that deliver amazing tone and response—all the product of torturous stage testing and recording tests.

Also debuting this year are EVH Low-Friction Potentiometers, which provide very fast, smooth control response with little resistance for the ultimate in volume and tone control. Available in 250k and 500k versions.

Further, the distinctive high-performance Wolfgang guitar now enjoys two stylish new finish options—Black Cherry Burst and Trans Amber. All three have quilt maple tops.

the sound on the last tour sucked big time, way too high endy and too much gain

Any news on the Bourns/EVH low-friction pots? Any release dates or pricing? I'd like to install one on my Peavey Wolfgang Special.

There was a sure fire way for EVH to take over the pickup market with ONE PRODUCT. Build clones of the original EVH pickup with the ZERO resistance reading that he has moved from guitar to guitar for years. Eddies not using these pickups. He has had SD build him clones of the ZERO pickup for 20 years. This is a major part of the warm brown tone that he gets.

Does Eddie still play the guitar? He seems more like a businessman to me.

Low friction pots? Hmmm- why is this good? Seems to me that it would be WAY too easy to hit one accidently and knock it somewhere you don't want it to be. I'd be more interested in their quality, as pots tend to be amongst the most problematic of all hardware. Where are these made?

So how much are these pups going to cost? I'm guessing more than most other ones on the market, as usual with EVH stuff....
