When Eddie Van Halen unveiled his legendary red, white, and black striped 5150 guitar in 1984, he couldn't have imagined how many guitarists would eventually copy its iconic design. Now you can own an authentic EVH Striped Series 5150 electric guitar, inspired by one of the most famous instruments in rock history!

Eddie's original 5150 was a custom Kramer guitar that became his primary stage instrument during Van Halen's massively successful 1984 tour. It was also a studio workhorse, used extensively while recording the band's blockbuster 1984 album, including "Panama," "Girl Gone Bad," "House of Pain," and the guitar solos on "Jump" and "I'll Wait." The guitar remained one of Eddie's favorites throughout much of the Sammy Hagar era, while the number 5150 became legendary as the name of his recording studio and Van Halen's chart-topping 1986 album.

This officially authorized EVH model captures the unmistakable look of Eddie's original, right down to the red, black, and white stripes, "5150" hologram numbers, star decals, and distinctive "hockey stick" headstock. Whether you're a guitarist, collector, or lifelong Van Halen fan, it's a spectacular piece of rock 'n' roll history to own. Display it using a sturdy guitar stand or reliable wall mount, and make it the centerpiece of your music room, home studio, office, or man cave.

And this beauty isn't just for looking at! It's a genuine, full-size EVH electric guitar, not a miniature replica or display-only collectible. With its powerful EVH Wolfgang humbucking pickup, fast-playing maple neck, and Floyd Rose locking tremolo with EVH D-Tuna, this high-performance instrument is ready for everything from thick, chunky rhythms to soaring solos and screaming dive bombs.
