This is one of the few Dean Dimebag Darrell signature "Roots" ML guitars every built and was signed by Zakk Wylde before he took the stage for the legendary 50th Anniversary of Black Sabbath show he did in Birmingham, UK 50 years to the day of Black Sabbath's (the band being from Birmingham) debut release! This was the first time Zakk Sabbath ever did a show in the UK, and this guitar was present for the entire show!

This is a guitar that not only celebrates Dime's life with a beautiful razorblade inlay on the body from the oak tree at his home in Texas...but it is a celebration of heavy metal itself, signed by Dime's closest friend and legendary guitarist Zakk Wylde at the birthplace of heavy metal for the half century celebration of heavy metal itself. There isn't another guitar like it with this special connection. There is a fantastic video of Zakk taking the guitar and signing it. It also has a signed certificate from the late Elliot Rubinson who owned Dean Guitars. Our studio thought having this guitar at the show would be a great way to honour Dime's memory and have something extra special for metal fans everywhere.

The guitar lives at Essex Recording Studios and is part of our exclusive collection of rare & special guitars. I'm not too keen to sell it, but its sale would help fund expansion for the studio and unsigned artists we work with...so if someone else out there appreciates it as much we do here, it is available. Until then I hope you enjoyed getting to check it out and learn about this rare model. The flame top looks AMAZING!

International buyers welcome! We ship to any country in the world. This guitar will be packed and shipped with love, care and respect. This guitar is mint and un-played with plastic still on the back cover! You are also welcome to collect the guitar in person if you are local to our studio in Chelmsford, England at post code CM3 2NX. 

YOUR PURCHASE HELPS MUSICIANS! Buying from us directly helps support unsigned musicians and bands that struggle to produce professional music without the development deals & funding no longer provided to rock acts by major labels these days. Thank you for your support!
