Guitar Reviews: March Metal Madness

March 24th, 2006

Unless you haven’t picked up on it yet, I’m a pretty big metal fan. I was thinking about doing a series of review posts on some guitars commonly used by metal guitarists.

To finish off the month of March, over the next 7 days we will look at 7 different signature metal guitars. Each of the signature guitars is from one of my favorite guitarists.

The guitars I plan on reviewing are as follows:

  1. Guitar Reviews: March Metal Madness
  2. Fender Stratocaster Yngwie Malmsteen Signature Guitar
  3. ESP KH-2 Kirk Hammett Signature Guitar
  4. ESP Ninja 600 Michael Amott Signature Guitar
  5. Gibson Les Paul Zakk Wylde CAMO Signature Guitar
  6. Jackson RR1 Randy Rhoads Signature Guitar
  7. Dean USA Razorback Tribute Dimebag Darrell Signature Guitar
  8. ESP Alexi Laiho Signature Guitar

So, check back tomorrow for first on the list, the Yngwie Malmsteen Fender Strat.

    No Ernie Ball Music Man John Petrucci model? I am disappointed. ;)

    I look forward to your reviews, Matt. Esp. the Yngwie Fender (I’ve never played a guitar with a scalloped fretboard — would like to know what you thihnk about that) and Dimebag’s Dean.

    I hated the mid-level Dime Washburn, but I like Washburn’s custom-shop stuff. I’ve always been a fan of Dean, so, again, I’m interested to read your impressions.

    Well to be honest the only hands on review I can do is for the Zakk Wylde LP and the RR1, the others I guess should leave out the “review” part as they will really only be an overview.

    I have played a guitar with a scalloped fretboard though and it was… interesting. I could see it taking some getting used to but I just dont think it was for me.

    Yngwie actually has jumbo frets and a scalloped fretboard, so thats double the height.
