Classic Vibe With a Basswood Body and Wolfgang Humbucker
The centerpiece of the EVH Star T.O.M. is a basswood body designed to provide rich, resonant tone with plenty of punch. A single EVH Wolfgang bridge humbucker serves up the unmistakable crunch that defined so many timeless Van Halen riffs and virtuosic solos. Dig in hard and you’ll unleash soaring sustain with complex overtones that seem to bloom forever, while harmonics effortlessly leap from the instrument—just the way Eddie made them. The pickup’s beefy midrange helps cut through even the densest mixes with ease, so the EVH Star is always in the spotlight.

Ignite Your Creativity With the Momentary Killswitch
The limited-run EVH Star T.O.M. features a momentary killswitch that allows you to fire off stutter effects and create unique rhythmic textures, offering players an intuitive means of coaxing fresh ideas and improvisational gold from the guitar. Repeatedly tap the button to chop your notes at will, or hold it down to completely mute your signal for sustained accents. It’s an incredibly expressive tool that unlocks new creative possibilities. You can mimic Van Halen’s iconic sonic fireworks or forge your own path entirely.

Effortlessly Burn Through Scorching Riffs and Licks
Thanks to its 1-piece maple neck and ebony compound-radius fingerboard, the EVH Star T.O.M. was designed from the ground up for blazing-fast playability. A hand-rubbed satin finish and smooth ebony fingerboard let your fretting hand fly up and down the neck at breakneck speed. Meanwhile, the 12"–16" compound radius provides a rounded profile in the lower registers to more easily grab chords, flattening out as you move up the neck for better bending and easy single-note runs. Comfortably play your way, pioneering your personal sound on the EVH Star.
