Diamond Guitars (previously DBZ) announce the 2015 release of the new Zoltan Bathory (Five Finger Death Punch) signature guitar model. The ZB-FR Halcyon comes in Black Moonrise and Kona Brown…
Re-released, the Halcyon is hostile, elegant and powerful in one design. Re-designed, the Halcyon is bold and aggressive, fast and modern, but with the flare of all the guitars we used to love. With all the features critical to a performing player, the Halcyon is still affordable. Its finishes are distinct and add an element of style and unique to the player. The Halcyon is, after all, a bird of prey.
The ZB Series, spec’d by Zoltan Bathory, has it all. Floyd Rose, Seymour Duncan pickups, ABS Binding, stunning finishes, Flame Maple / Mahogany and Flame Maple / Maple combinations with the smooth feel and brilliant tone of an Ebony fingerboard. With custom inlays to boot, it’s hard to ask for anything more in a guitar. Set neck construction.
