EVH Stripe Series Circles Overview
EVH Stripe Series Circles overview by GAK
With an otherworldly black-and-white "crop circles" graphic gloss finish, the EVH Circles model is without question one of the most distinctively eye-catching guitars in the Stripe Series lineup. Known to the EVH fraternity as the "The Unchained Guitar", this guitar was prominent during the 1981 Van Halen Fair Warning album/tour, considered by many fans as one of EVH's most innovative guitar records.
There's nothing alien about the rest of this high-performance tone machine, though, with its sleek Strat®-like basswood body, rock-solid quartersawn maple neck with oiled finish, fast and smooth compound-radius maple fingerboard (12"-16") with comfortably rolled edges and 22 jumbo frets, a single ferocious EVH direct-mount pickup with single black plastic control knob (master volume), EVH Floyd Rose® with D-Tuna® bridge and locking nut, and EVH tuners.
