The Story

Zakk Wylde ZV Buzzsaw Prototype

This is the quite wild, or should we say "Wylde" Gibson Custom Shop Zakk Wylde ZV Buzzsaw. It is Artist Proof #3 as denoted on the back of the headstock. It is being offered for sale by The Music Zoo as part of a private collection, and includes the original shipping box and Gibson final checklist paperwork. The guitar is a mashup of the top half of a Gibson SG mixed with the horns of a Flying V, loaded up with two EMG active humbuckers and an oil-finished maple neck just like Zakk's other signature Gibsons. This is an awesome piece for any collectors of Zakk Wylde's gear, or any collection of rare Gibson Custom Shop instruments!

Includes: Original Hardshell Case, Original Gibson Box, Gibson Final Checklist Paperwork
