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