Gibson is introducing a new Zakk Wylde signature guitar. After three different Les Paul models it is now time for a Flying V model, with the familiar bullseye painting. Zakk has previously used replicas of Randy Rhoads' Jackson RR-V and Sandoval "Polka dot" V guitars.

The Gibson Zakk Wylde Custom Bullseye Flying V features mahogany body, maple neck with ebony fingerboard, and of course Zakk's standard choice of EMG-81 and EMG85 pickups. Something entirely new on a Zakk-guitar is a Floyd Rose tremolo bridge - Zakk has obviously gotten used to it after having played the polka dot for awhile.

A fat wallet is as usual required - the axe will cost around $4500. Let's hope for a resonable priced Epi-version in the future.
