For sale is my 2015 EVH Striped Series Star in the iconic Black & White “1980 Invasion” graphics. This is one of the rarest and most recognizable guitars ever produced in the EVH Striped Series lineup, inspired by Eddie Van Halen’s legendary Star guitar from the 1980 Invasion Tour.
These guitars were only produced for a short time and have become increasingly difficult to find. At the time of this listing, there is only one other comparable example currently available, making this a fantastic opportunity for both collectors and players.
This guitar has been professionally set up, plays flawlessly, and is in excellent overall condition. It has also been verified through Fender’s official serial number database, providing buyers complete confidence in its authenticity.
