12–16-inch compound-radius ebony fingerboard
The fingerboard radius changes from 12 to 16 inches across its length.

Independent shopping perspective
Designed around high-speed electric-guitar playing, the Wolfgang Special combines a solid basswood body with a graphite-reinforced, quartersawn maple bolt-on neck and an ebony fingerboard. Two direct-mounted EVH Wolfgang Zebra humbuckers cover power chords and solos through a three-way switch, while the Floyd Rose locking tremolo, locking nut, and D-Tuna support extreme tremolo use and quick drop-D changes. Its 12–16-inch compound-radius board, 22 jumbo frets, and low-friction volume control suit players who work bends, riffing, and volume swells into the same set.
