Frank Frazetta's influence reaches far and wide, including in the world of Rock 'N Roll, where his artwork is seen on or inspired by numerous album covers. Now, Tool guitarist, Adam Jones has an Epiphone Les Paul model with an iconic Frazetta image on it. Details below.
Epiphone goes berserk with its second Adam Jones Art Collection Les Paul
Like its predecessor in the Art Collection series, the Tool guitarist's new "Berserker" Les Paul is all Silverburst business up front, with an epic design in the back
Last December, the much-anticipated, long-teased Epiphone Adam Jones Les Paul Custom finally arrived, though not quite in the form we were anticipating.
Epiphone partnered with the Tool electric guitar player to create the Adam Jones Art Collection, a series of seven limited-edition Epiphone Les Pauls – limited to 800 units apiece – that each boast a different piece of fine art, selected by Jones.
December saw the release of the first model in the collection, “The Veil of Bees" model. Now, Epiphone has unveiled the collection's second six-string, “The Berserker.”
“The Berserker” is so named for the piece of Frank Frazetta artwork that adorns the back of its body. Like its predecessor in the Art Collection – and all of its future siblings in the line – the guitar also sports a special design by artist Korin Faught at the back of the headstock, and a special back plate commemorating the artwork and the artist.
