The design challenge with the METALHEAD™ was to create a uniquely aggressive looking guitar, in a format that would get players charged up for years to come. As it turns out, it’s harder to develop a radical look in a traditional format. That traditional shape is what makes the guitar playable and comfortable. The Metalhead packages the qualities of feel and playability with an edgy departure from traditional looks.

The cutaway horns are modeled after knife blades. Going on stage with this guitar is a little like going into battle. The set neck and the fixed bridge give the guitar rigidity to ensure great string performance, and the thin body depth reduces the weight, making it easy on the shoulder.

Duncan Designed™ pickups provide amazing tone and deliver all the unique performance qualities built into the Metalhead. Grover™ tuners make tuning fast and accurate.
