This is an awesome, massively collectible Zakk Wylde Signature Custom Epiphone and I say with some confidence that you will not find another one of these in better condition. This guitar has hardly been played and kept in immaculate condition. There are absolutely no signs of wear. I have a few guitars on my wall and whenever anyone sees them - they are instantly drawn to this one! It looks amazing, sounds amazing and is truly iconic.
I still have the original till receipt as I have had it from new - purchased from Music Junkie in Leicester.
It is offered for collection only.
Comes with hard case with keys.
Here‘s the official description and spec:
It's hard to say what Zakk Wylde is best known for: his outlaw persona, magnificent beard, and ripping guitar solos all compete as his defining feature. Epiphone has created the Zakk Wylde Bullseye Les Paul Custom Plus -- complete with Zakk's signature bullseye paintjob and high-output EMG pickups -- for anyone who wants to be like Wylde without all the hair.
Built for Solid, Full SoundThe start of any great guitar tone comes in the instrument's tonewoods and construction, and Epiphone has made that a priority with the Custom Plus. The body and carved top are made of solid mahogany for a dense and naturally warm sound. Continuing the sound craftsmanship, the hard maple neck of the Custom Plus is glued into the body with TiteBond glue using a mortise and tenon neck joint to promote stability. The back of the neck is satin-finished for smooth playing, and capped with a rosewood fretboard.
Active EMG Pickups for Crushing ToneAny guitar bearing Zakk Wylde's signature had better come ready to handle high gain and heavy play. The Zakk Wylde Bullseye Les Paul Custom is fitted for the task, with an EMG 81 in the neck and an EMG 85 in the bridge. These humbuckers are both designed with alnico magnets and active circuitry for a hot sound that helps draw rich overdrive out of tube amps. At the same time, the pickups keep your notes sounding clear through just about any unholy distortion pedal you happen to plug into. The enhanced definition and clarity will help you achieve those hair-raising harmonic squeals Wylde hits in his solos.
Special Features Add More Than Just FlairThe gold hardware on the Custom Plus lends a classy touch to an otherwise down-and-dirty rocker, but it offers plenty of functionality too. The Epiphone LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge is paired with a Stopbar tailpiece that helps add ringing sustain. The gold 16:1 ratio Grover machine heads help keep your axe in tune even after wide bends. Zakk Wylde's iconic ivory and black bullseye design covers the entire body, but the 7-layer body binding and 5-layer headstock binding add an extra bit of elegance -- rugged elegance, that is.
