Con esto del NAMM Show ’05, parece que a todos les ha entrado la fiebre de la presentación de nuevos modelos de guitarras de artista. Si en posts anteriores mencionaba la de Scott Ian y las de tributo a Dimebag Darell, aquí os pongo otras novedades:

De la página web de EPIPHONE (Aquí la noticia completa)

«Zakk Wylde CAMO» LP Custom – Guitar World Magazine’s 2003 and 2004 «MVP» (Most Valuable Player), Zakk Wylde needs little introduction. But? his new guitars from Epiphone certainly do! The new Zakk Wylde «Camo» starts with a Les Paul Custom and then adds a hard maple, unfinished neck for biting tone and lightening fast feel, EMG HZ pickups for powerful, noise-free tone, gold hardware and the custom «camouflage» graphics. Be sure to visit www.ZakkWylde.com for BLS tour and news!

«Zakk Wylde BUZZSAW» LP Custom – Based upon Zakk’s original, one-of-a-kind «Buzzsaw guitar, this metal-monster sustain-crazy axe personifies Zakk’s «take no prisoners» style. It starts with a Les Paul Custom and then adds a hard maple, unfinished neck for biting tone and lightening fast feel, EMG HZ pickups for powerful, noise-free tone, chrome hardware and the orange and black «Buzzsaw» custom graphics. Add it all up and this is a guitar for the serious player. *Buzzsaw available Summer 2005!
