Marcus Henderson, best known as the heavy-metal guitar player behind a majority of guitar parts in the highly successful video game Guitar Hero, has joined forces with Epiphone to design and create the Apparition signature electric guitar. Marcus says this dream axe is designed to be the very definition of what a 21st century guitar should be: substance with killer style, bulletproof construction, and above everything else, huge tone.

With a shape reminiscent of an Explorer or Futura, the Epiphone Apparition takes guitar design to the extreme and offers a patented All Access heel contour for maximum playability over the whole fretboard. The effortless speed-friendly neck is modeled after the '60s slim-tapered Gibson Les Paul. The real Floyd Rose tremolo with a specially routed back cavity lets you pull-up screaming harmonics. Active EMG-81 and 85 pickups give you all the killer tones you've been dreaming of. A kill button chops the sound up any way your heart desires.

A hardshell case designed specifically for the Marcus Henderson Apparition guitar is also available.

My next guitar.
Posted by Kyle from Dallas, TX on Jun 30, 2009
Experience w/product: I have used it
Reviewer's Background: Active Musician
Reviewer's Play Style: Metal
Well, I actually played this guitar today, and as soon as I played it, I had to come and write a review. I randomly saw it, picked it up and played it, and dang...This is my next guitar. It has EMGs (81/85, I think), an Original Floyd Rose, 24 frets, a killswitch, and it's a neck thru (one whole piece). I'm totally going to use this guitar for rhythms in the studio, it sounds so sexy!! What more do you need to hear? The only reason I gave it a 4.5 overall is because the cutaway wasn't good enough for me, although my hands are big, so it's up to you to test it, but in short...BUY THIS GUITAR. It's troubling me that I don't have this guitar yet...
