...it looks like I am returning to my progressive/power metal roots. I want a "modern" guitar that brings me back to my ESP/Jackson days. I've only got around $900 to spend....
I have thinking really hard about grabbing an EVH Wolfgang Special second hand. Anybody have experience with one?
What do like/dislike?
Obviously I'll go play one before buying, but I also enjoy opinions from other players so I can be informed about quirks that an instrument may have.
I think it's an interesting guitar, and having had a Peavey Wolfgang TOM in the 90s, the neck shouldn't be weird, but I'm not sure if Fender did any extra carving to the asymmetrical shape of the Peavey neck - which was awesome...
Thanks in advance!!
PS - I'm not considering a PRS for this gig. I've been working through some material with this group and my PRS' don't have the vibe that inspires me to play at 230bpm and play fast, face-melting leads. It's a bummer, but it's an excuse to get something "new" and "different".
