The Metal V Pinstripe Limited Edition features a Mahogany body with Rock Maple set-neck construction, Ebony fingerboard, 24 Jumbo Stainless Steel frets and Luminlay side dots. The finish is Gloss White with Deep Blue Pearl pinstripes and a white-painted, satin-finished neck.

The Blizzard and Concordia pickups are designed to produce an updated take on the classic hard rock and metal tones of the early 80s. The Ceramic-loaded Blizzard is all about full-bodied rhythms, harmonically-charged leads and hefty palm-muted chugs with a little hair on the top end, while the Alnico 5 Concordia offers a complementary yet contrasting smooth, sustaining voice with an almost flute-like clarity. Both are available in six and seven-string versions.
