Edward Van Halen's attempt to make a "budget" version of the this guitar that didn't compromise quality in parts or craftsmanship.
Made in the USA, and first offered in 1998, it featured a flat top, one knob (volume), three-way pickup toggle switch, two Special/EVH-designed humbucker pickups, licensed Floyd Rose tremolo with D-Tuna (d-tuner device), straight headstock, and chrome tuners. Two base versions were offered: a solid basswood model and a solid basswood/maple cap model.
