Zakk Wylde Custom Guitar?

Can anyone identify the guitar used in this video?
It looks like a Les Paul with a Dean headstock, though I know it's not a Dean.
Custom builder?

Just curious.

Wow, I don't know about the guitar but thanks for posting that video. I forget sometimes how good Zak is. I mean, watching him is depressing.

That's the one ... thanks dice!

Yeah, Zakk is a monster.
If you have the chance, check out his instructional video "Pentatonic Hardcore".
It's more of a video of him jamming than an instructional video, but that's fine by me.

Pentatonic Hardcore is great. I need to pull it up again, now that I can probably handle some of the very basic stuff!

Petrucci had a good one that I got some warm ups off of... don't remember what it was called...

Funny - but too painful to sit through!!

The original version is great, though!

WoW!
I just read that this guitar didn't originally have a cutaway.
Zakk took a saw to it himself because he had a hard time reaching the upper registers.

I read that as well. It turned out pretty good! You can see "before" shots if you look at the links right next to the picture...

Looks like a Les Paul with a skinny waist, now!
