Black Metal Guitar

[6stringerguy]

I know you can play black metal on anything but just wondering what guitar you think fits the aesthetic most
Personally it seems like a all black les Paul shape or Jackson v seems the most popular.

Black Metal Guitar

Solaras, Parallaxe, Omen, Strictly 7....
All pointy superstrat types are what I believe to be the popular guitars for that genera.

One of the genre's founders, Varg Vikerenes (Nazi piece of ****), was playing a budget Peavey when Guitar World stupidly covered him a few years back. Probably because he's broke, not out of choice, though.

I’m very aware of Varg and his questionable politics but still love his musical work nevertheless.

Mantas (Venom) - maybe the first black metal guitarist - played with some white strat with maple fretboard.

Mantas was born on 1961, much earlier than his scandinavian followers .

Yeah, mostly seems to be LP ish or something with a Floyd. Its kinda the reason why I tend to play that genre through a semi hollow or Tele. Not that I play a lot of it though.

I’m honestly contemplating something with a purple flame top and Floyd Rose.

Whatever suits you and makes a statement about who you are.

Re: Black Metal Guitar

I really like the Schecter "RavenDark" Abbath signature I posted above. It does a great job of blending "pointy" with "classic" and keeps things perfectly dark. Definitely a more refined Jackson "King V" style. But no trans top :/

You could always go with the blood 'n skulls Dean Razorback V

The Schecter Apocalypse series looks pretty brutal, even with it's more natural appearance:

I like the mini v side. I'd be up for one if both sides were like that.
