Everything a guitar hero needs to get started.

The Marcus Henderson Apparition Guitar Hero Package includes the Marcus Henderson Apparition Guitar, Marcus Henderson Apparition Case, premium leather strap, binder containing artist-signed photo and certificate of authenticity, Dean Markley signature series CL 9-46 strings, guitar cable and custom Marcus Henderson guitar pick.

Marcus Henderson, best known as the heavy-metal guitar player behind a majority of guitar parts in highly successful video games including Guitar Hero, has joined forces with Epiphone to design and create the new Apparition signature guitar. Marcus says this dream/fantasy 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.

Marcus Henderson Apparition Guitar
With a shape reminiscent of an Explorer or Futura, the new 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 trem 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.

Marcus Henderson Apparition Case
The Marcus Henderson Apparition electric guitar case is an Epiphone Explorer-style hardshell case specifically designed to hold the Marcus Henderson Apparition guitar, also created by Epiphone. Made of rugged wood and covered in Tolex it features grey padded plush lining, as well as a heavy-duty handle and accessory compartment. It also features super-tough hinges and drawbar latches.

This guitar is great. It's got everything a metalhead wants in a guitar. The body is routed at the bridge so you can pull up on the Original Floyd Rose as well as divebomb. It also features the classic 81/85 set for the pickups. An added bonus: A killswitch to cut the sound. I don't use this a lot, but it's cool to have. The only issue I had, and why Quality gets 4.5, is some buzzing on the low E string, but I can deal with it.

Pleasantly surprised

I ordered this guitar mostly because I got a great deal and wanted something that wouldn't break my heart if I ruined it in Iraq. I honestly wasn't expecting that much, so I was very surprised at how great this guitar is. The neck is very fast and the action was low right out of the box (with no buzzing). The unique neck joint makes access to the higher frets easy. The connections inside the control cavity are well done (no sloppy wiring/soldering). I gave it a 5.0 across the board because I can't imagine this guitar being done better within its price range. It far exceeded my expectations.

Best new metal guitar out there

I play guitar for a local Metal band in Chicago and have been looking for a new machine for a while. Having tried out the ESP's in my local shop I was was looking for a guitar that has some warmth behind it and not just a vehicle for EMG's. I am blown-away at how this guitar plays, feels and looks. It kills. Period. The neck is fast and the frets feel like they were chosen for speed. THIS IS IT!!! It's smaller than a Explorer but has a real floyd and probably the only axe on the market with a killswitch. I will be using them on tour this year. Oh and they are built a like a tank.
