In 1982, Van Halen made his first guitar endorsement by launching the 5150 Baretta model with Kramer. This partnership lasted a decade. In 1991, Van Halen began working with Ernie Ball / Music Man, developing the Music Man EVH model guitar - a partnership that lasted until 1995. In 1996, Van Halen teamed up with Peavey where they developed the Peavey EVH Wolfgang – this relationship lasted until 2004 when Van Halen joined forces with Fender, initially releasing the Edward-endorsed Art Series guitars under Fender's Charvel brand and later developing the EVH brand. From Eddie Van Halen comes the latest musical instrument gear designed by the rock 'n' roll god himself and inspired by years of chasing tone.
