Here at Judah Guitars we take 25 years of experience in building and aging and apply it to EVH Striped Series guitars. The result of our detailed, proprietary process is an expertly remastered version of one Eddie's most legendary guitars. While no attention to detail is spared in giving you this stunning replica, we also stop at nothing to furnish a superior playing guitar that feels like your new best friend right out of the box.

The "Frankenstrat Relic"
Here's what stays…
-The EVH® Wolfgang Humbucker, which is a GREAT sounding pickup
-The EVH branded Floyd Rose tremolo system & EVH D-Tuna
-The original tuning machines and frets
-EVH Neck and Body
Here's what's modded/added…
-The paint is aggressively distressed and aged to mirror the original
-The bridge humbucker is wired straight to the volume pot through to the jack
-A 5-way switch is added is a newly routed middle pickup position
-A non-operational single-coil neck pickup is added
-The input jack is moved to the top
-The infamous truck stop reflectors are added to the back
-The original strap buttons are replaced with large "eye screw" bolts
-The D-Tuna is removed and inspected and its functionality is upgraded by way of a detailed oil and polishing process
-The guitar is set up in standard tuning (optional 1/2 step down tuning at your request) with EVH .010's (optional EVH .009's at your request) with the action set at 3/64 at the 22nd fret
-Intonation is precisely set with a Peterson Strobe Tuner

We at Judah Guitars are just like you: We too grew up listening and championing Van Halen and loved every moment spent chasing Eddie's licks & tricks. Those years of admiration are translated into our respect today for the EVH brand. We take great care in all aspects of this process we spent years developing. To that end, all Frankenstrat Relics retain their EVH/Fender serial numbers and have our branding burned into the back of the headstock to ensure no discrepancies with the Frankenstein made by Fender.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Take note: WE DO NOT MANUFACTURE THESE GUITARS. The guitar seen in this listing was built by EVH/Fender. We are in no way affiliated with EVH or Fender Musical Instruments Corporation. We are not EVH or Fender dealers. We simply purchase the guitars and make them into what you see. Due to a trademark owned by EVH, we can not build a Frankenstrat Relic from scratch.

*** Our proprietary aging process is world-renowned. At Judah Guitars we take great pride in all our work including the Frankenstrat Relic project. We continue to research & refine our process. We strive to give you the very best experience with this "playable art." We welcome and listen to your critiques. We believe we produce the very best Van Halen replica in our class. Need an unbiased source for reference? We have a group of current Judah Guitar/Frankenstrat Relicowners who will gladly talk with you.
Throughout our various merchant outlets, we have sold over 200 Frankenstrat Relics to customers far and wide-ranging from noted professionals to passionate hobbyists. Due to increasing demand, increasing resale value, and fraud we use our own in-house serial numbering system (in addition to the factory serial number) to catalog as well as verify every Frankenstrat Relic.
