The differences between the Wolfgang, Wolfgang Special, and Wolfgang Special QT:
1. The Wolfgang has an arched top and the Special and QT Special have flat tops.
2. The Wolfgang has a Birdseye maple neck and the Special and QT Special have Hardrock maple necks.
3. The Wolfgang has body binding and the Special does not. The Flame-top Special and QT Special have faux binding which is actually the side of the body without color to give the appearance of binding.
4. The Wolfgang has a tilted headstock and the Special and QT Special do not.
5. The Wolfgang has a tone control and the Special and QT Special do not.
The Wolfgang Special QT:
The Wolfgang Special QT is the only Wolfgang that is manufactured overseas and it is the only Special with a quilt-top. All other Wolfgangs and Wolfgang Specials are made in the USA. The Wolfgang Special QT is manufactured to the same specs as the USA Special and the only real differences are the quilt-top on the QT is a veneer, no graphite reinforcement in the neck and the neck has a polyurethane finish on it.

Some Customshop wolfgang specials have quilt-tops, I think.Anthony Johns wrote: Wolfgang Special QT:

Re: The differences between the Wolfgang models
A Custom Shop model could be ordered with any top wood you would like. This is specifically in reference to the production models.
