The large truss rod cover says 'E V O'.
The rear of the headstock has 2 rows of Grover Rotomatics, in Chrome, with a 3 a side layout, as you'd expect on a guitar of this style. The serial number is printed on the back, but apart from that, it's just plain black!
The Maple neck has also got a gloss finish, in black, as is the whole guitar. The neck feels fairly slim, a shallow D profile, nut width is only 42mm, so moving quickly around the fretboard is a breeze. The Evo 2000 is designed to be played fast.
The Rosewood fingerboard is unbound, with large pearloid dot inlays and 22 silver Nickel frets, all polished up to a high standard, giving a lovely smooth finish that is easy and fun to play. Action as supplied from the factory is about 3mm across the range at the 12th fret.
The Maple neck is set into the Alder body, joining at the 17th fret on the bass side and 21st on the treble. The back of the neck joint here has been heavily chamfered away, making it very comfortable to get to the very high end of the fingerboard.
The body has an all over gloss black finish, the front is bound in cream, the back totally plain apart from 2 plastic backplates.
The front of the Evo 2000 has a flame finish, although pretty dark, you can see the greyish stripes underneath the strings. Notice there is no scratchplate, black pickup surrounds, and a pair of black open coil humbuckers, making it look very mean.
What does it sound like then? On the clean channel, the neck pickup is surprisingly best, with more power, clarity and brightness, the bridge pickup is a little more mellow, both are goping to be good for general rhythm work.
On the dirty channel though, roles are reversed,the bridge pickup cuts through rock and metal with ease whilst soloing. Sustain seems to go on forever. Both pickups perform very well on rhythm duties, plenty of bite and growl - enough to please all you metalers.
