Dean

Description

Straight from the mind of one of the most recognized and beloved names in thrash metal metal comes the Eric Peterson Z. This is top notch guitar that looks like classic Dean, but geared up for the attack one would need to play the most aggressive styles in metal. With a mahogany body and a 3-piece maple neck with ebony fingerboard bring out the perfect combination of warmth and bite. Its set neck construction, EMG 81/85 active pickups and Floyd Rose 1000 Series tremolo system make this the perfect beast for shred and heavy rhythms. Case sold separately.

    Honestly the first 3 seconds I played this without an amp I took it to the salesman and congratulated him on the sale haha. For my hands and preferences the fretboard is undeniably comfortable, fast and easy to track where your at. About the sound...it's going through an EVH 5150iii and a Marshall Silver Jubilee. It's a drooling beast! Sounds thick and balanced at all tones i.e. clean, fat, crunch and face melt. I am sincerely impressed an somewhat obsessed with this guitar.
