Introduction

For as long as

I’ve been

playing guitar,

I’ve always been

searching for a

certain feel and

tone...I’ve

experimented

by tearing apart

and reassem-

bling hundreds

of guitars in

different ways

searching for

these qualities.

Although I’ve

ruined a lot of

great guitars by having done this, I have learned what it takes

to make a truly great guitar. The Wolfgang®, after years of trial

and error, (for me) is that guitar.

Based on the familylike atmosphere, their commitment to

quality and the camaraderie we established during the

research and development process of the 5150®stack and

combo amplifier projects, Peavey was my logical choice as

the company to bring my ideas to life.

Our collective efforts in designing the Wolfgang guitar have

resulted in a versatile, quality-crafted guitar that feels great,

sounds great and is truly inspiring to play. I’ve already put

mine to the test in the studio and on tour and now it’s your

turn.

Stay Tuned,

Thank you for buying a Peavey EVH Wolfgang Special

guitar. This guitar was built by the most skilled craftsmen

and made from the finest materials available. As with all

of our musical equipment, we have built our guitars using

a combination of leading-edge technology and traditional

handcrafted methods. Ask your Peavey dealer for a full list

of other Peavey musical equipment and accessories.

Construction

Body

The body of this instrument is constructed of select basswood

chosen specifically for tonal qualities as well as for weight

characteristics. The offset, asymmetrical body design offers

comfort, proper balance and maximum playing ease.

Neck

The select hardrock maple neck is crafted to provide

unmatched rigidity and freedom from warpage.

Additional strength is provided by the dual graphite

reinforcement bars and an easy access, adjustable steel

torsion rod. (See

Adjustments–Torsion Rod

for adjust-

ment instructions.)

Pickups

The two Peavey humbucking pickups, custom-wound to

Edward's specifications, supply optimal output and tonal

response. A two-step wax dipping process is used to pro-

vide ultra-low noise operation and resistance to micro-

phonic feedback. The pickups are mounted directly to the

body, which further reduces feedback at high volume

levels and offers enhanced tonal response.

Controls

Pickup Selector Switch (1)

This three-position switch

allows selection of pickups

in various combinations. The

selection possibilities are as

follows:

•

Up = Bridge pickup

•

Center = Both pickups

•

Down = Neck pickup

Volume (2)

The volume knob controls the total signal delivered

from both pickups. Rotating clockwise will increase

volume; rotating counterclockwise will reduce vol-

ume.

Output Jack (3)

The output jack accepts standard guitar patch cords.

(We recommend high-quality Peavey “shielded” patch

cords.)

Adjustments

Your instrument has been carefully adjusted at the Peavey

factory for accurate intonation and playing ease. However,

your playing style and requirements may necessitate addi-

tional adjustments. These should be made by your autho-

rized Peavey dealer; but with a little care and by closely

adhering to the following instructions, you may attempt

these adjustments yourself.

Please read the instructions thoroughly before attempting

any adjustments.

Torsion Rod (1)

All guitar necks have a slight amount

of bow to keep the strings from

“buzzing” on the frets. This instrument

features an easy access torsion rod

adjustment wheel located at the end of

the neck. This wheel can be adjusted

with a hex wrench or small screwdriv-

er. Just insert the tool into the adjust-

ment wheel and rotate accordingly.

1. Tune the instrument to

standard (A-440) pitch.

2. Fret the sixth string (E) at the

first and last frets.

3. Check for clearance between the string and the

eighth fret.

4. Clearance should be no less than .005" and no

more than .015".

5. To increase clearance‚ loosen (counterclock-

wise) the torsion rod adjustment wheel.

Less clearance (straightening of the neck) is

accomplished by tightening (clockwise) the

torsion rod adjustment wheel.

6. Retune the instrument and repeat steps 1-5 until

proper clearance has been achieved.

Tremolo Bridge

The Peavey/Floyd Rose®licensed, double-locking tremolo

system features a locking topnut, locking bridge saddles and

a steel bridge plate with a massive brass inertia block for

maximum tuning stability, sustain and tonal response. This

tremolo system has been carefully adjusted for accurate

intonation, playing ease and pitch change. To adjust this

unit properly, you must first understand the operating prin-

ciple. The strings are clamped at the locking topnut and

bridge areas, ensuring increased tuning stability during use.

Proper tremolo action is also a result of accurate balancing

between string tension and tremolo spring tension. This

instrument has been set up at the factory with high-quality

Peavey EVH Wolfgang guitar strings. Should you desire a

larger or smaller gauge of strings, the spring tension, as well

as the intonation, must be adjusted. For string changes, and

in case an adjustment needs to be made, read the instruc-

tions carefully.

String Retainer Bar (1)

The string retainer bar is used to

provide the proper amount of down-

ward string pressure over the lock-

ing topnut. This should be adjusted

only low enough to keep the strings

in contact with the surface of the

locking topnut, which will prevent

the strings from going sharp in pitch

after tightening the locking topnut.

Locking Topnut (2)(at headstock)

With the supplied 3mm hex wrench, loosen the three locking

topnut screws to allow the strings to pass through the string

slots. Tune to pitch and tighten locking topnut screws until

snug. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN SCREWS.

String Installation

After loosening topnut screws (at headstock), use tuning

machines to remove string tension. Loosen string lock

bolts at bridge approximately three turns using the 3mm

hex wrench. Insert string end through tuning machines

and locking topnut. Cut off excess string length approxi-

mately one inch past string of lock bolts. Insert string end

into bridge saddle (between saddle housing and lock

block) and tighten until snug. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.

Adjust fine tuning knobs to middle position. Stretch strings

and tune to pitch. Tighten locking topnut, stretch string

once more and fine-tune to pitch.

(

See

D-Tuner Operation

and Adjustment

below.

)

D-Tuner Operation and Adjustment

The D-Tuner is a unique

pitch dropping device that

offers instant “Drop-D” tun-

ing by dropping the low-E

string down to D. This is

located on the low-E string

lock bolt, and is actuated by

simply sliding the mecha-

nism in (for E) or out (for D).

Please read the instructions

carefully to understand the

operation and adjustment of

the D-Tuner.

1. Loosen the locking topnut screw for the low-E string.

2. Adjust the D-Tuner to the “D” position by pulling it

back (away from the tremolo).

3. Turn the fine-tuning adjustment screw for the low-E

string counterclockwise until it stops. Then, turn

the fine-tuning adjustment screw clockwise approxi-

mately one full turn. This will allow proper travel for

the D-Tuner.

4. Using the tuning machine, stretch and retune the low-E

string to “D.” Then, tighten the locking topnut screw and

fine tune the “D” using the fine-tuning adjustment

screw.

5. Slide the D-Tuner forward (toward the bridge) while

applying slight downward pressure. The D-Tuner will

now be in the “E” position. The fine-tuning screw will

now be positioned on the top, flat surface of the

D-Tuner.

6. Check the tuning of the low-E string.

7. If the low-E string is out of tune, use the supplied 1.5mm

hex wrench to turn the set screw on the D-Tuner clock-

wise if the pitch is flat, or counterclockwise if the pitch is

sharp.

8. Pull the D-Tuner back to the “D” position and check tun-

ing. Push it back to the “E” position, check tuning and

readjust the set screw if necessary.

9. Once the set screw on the D-Tuner is correctly adjusted,

use only the fine-tuning screw for tuning. (The fine-tun-

ing screw will simultaneously tune both notes in either

position.)

It is recommended that the D-Tuner, fine-tuning

adjustment screw and bridge saddle be

cleaned and lubricated to ensure smooth oper-

ation. The saddle should be allowed to pivot up and down

freely to ensure proper operation of the D-Tuner.

Changing string gauges or deviation from proper pitch

(A-440) will necessitate readjustment of the D-Tuner.

Tremolo Bridge Height

Bridge height may be adjusted by means of the bridge

pivot bolts. Turn the pivot bolts clockwise to reduce

bridge height. Turn the pivot bolts counterclockwise to

increase bridge height.

tremolo Bridge Tension

The tension of the tremolo bridge is set by adjusting the

spring tension screws which hold the spring claw in place.

To gain access to the spring tension screws and spring

claw, remove the spring cover on the back of the guitar.

Note

Per Edward’s specification, the tremo-

lo system is adjusted to rest on the

body surface for maximum sustain and

tonality. This will only allow the

strings to be dropped below pitch.

This also ensures tuning stability when

using the D-Tuner or when a string

breaks. The instrument is equipped

with two springs, which allow proper

tension for the string gauge supplied

with the guitar. The extra spring is

enclosed should you prefer to use a heavier string gauge.

Proper tremolo tension is achieved when the bottom of the

tremolo bridge plate rests on the top surface of the guitar

body without requiring excessive force to depress the

tremolo arm.

The tremolo can be adjusted to operate as a floating style

tremolo by loosening the spring tension. Turn the spring

tension screws clockwise to increase the spring tension,

and counterclockwise to decrease the spring tension.

This instrument should be tuned to proper pitch (A-440)

before and after making adjustments.

If the floating tremolo style is desired, it is

recommended that you remove the D-Tuner,

as its operation causes a change in string ten-

sion that will affect the tuning of the other strings. An extra

string lock bolt is enclosed in the case, should the D-Tuner

be removed.

CAUTION: Loosen all string tension before installing or

removing tension springs. Tremolo springs are designed

for high tension. Extreme care should be taken when

installing and removing these springs.

Tremolo Arm

The tremolo arm is inserted and screwed into the tremolo

arm socket on the bridge plate. This assembly can be

adjusted to control the amount of torque required to rotate

the tremolo arm. Some players prefer the tremolo arm to

stay in place when used. This can be accomplished by

using the supplied 12mm wrench to hold the top of the

tremolo arm socket while screwing the tremolo arm firmly

into place.
