    First thought was a vibe. His sig chorus and phaser hadn't come out yet.

    Probably his overdrive in front and the Rotovibe with maybe his sig wah pushed down.

    When did Zakk become a professional wrestler?

    Zakk is Zakk.

    Metalcore is more annoying with the pinch harmonics than He is.

    I was surprised at everyones responses haha. I was like "wtf" when I saw him start playing in that vid. He seemed very drunk and the tone was awful.


    Actually, I do not like Zakks music these days near as much as the old days.

    Its as if right when he turned into that hobo biker look, all his creativity left him.


    Clean-shaven Zakk = much better
