Title: Zakk Wylde guitar question
Post by: Dreichlift on June 24, 2007, 11:21:45 AM

Does anyone know what the guitar Zakk uses in Ozzy's Live and Loud DVD? I know he uses various Gibsons and his signature models but it's the Les Paul copy with the natural finish and Dean-like headstock I'm interested in, any background or info on it would be appreciated.

This is a custom made guitar by Andy Beech. He also made the Demon V in the Rockstar movie. The guitar originally didn't have a cut out in it, but one night Zakk took a saw to it because he was having a hard time reaching the higher frets.
