November 16, 2009

Zakk Wylde, legendary guitarist for OZZY OSBOURNE and founder of the heavy metal band BLACK LABEL SOCIETY, will appear at Allans Music store in Sydney, Australia on December 3 for the launch of his new Gibson guitars, the Les Paul BFG, Les Paul Bullseye and Buzzsaw, and the latest addition, the Graveyard Disciple.

To attend the Zakk Wylde in-store appearance and signing, fans are encouraged to pre-register online at www.allansmusic.com.au.

Full details are as follows:

Allans Music
228 Pitt Street, Sydney

Date: Thursday, December 3
Time: 4.00pm – 6.30pm

Please note: Zakk Wylde will NOT be performing on the day.

Designed by Zakk in cooperation with Epiphone, the new Graveyard Disciple combines killer sound with equally killer looks. Shaped like a coffin, the edges of the body are tapered and pin-striped in silver giving it a striking visual appearance and depth while providing for a comfortable feel.

The new Zakk Wylde Gibson USA BFG Guitar embodies the mammoth tone and over-the-top rock attitude of its name sake and offers all the equipment necessary to undertake your own scorched-earth attack on your local music scene. It features a rough-hewn book matched maple top, a rounded '50s spec neck with ebony fingerboard, sizzling EMG 81 and 85 humbucking pickups all approved by Zakk Wylde himself. The guitar comes in two Zakk-certified finishes to choose from, a Bullseye graphic or Buzzsaw graphic over a satin natural nitro finish all produced by the world’s most famous guitar manufacturer, Gibson USA.

MusicRadar.com has uploaded video footage of Zakk Wylde playing and talking about his new signature guitar, Epiphone Graveyard Disciple. Watch the clip below.
