Dethklok`s Skwisgaar Skwigelf has finally got a signature model. It is called Thunderhorse and it took the form of a Silverburst Explorer.
Nathan Explosion, Pickles, Skwisgaar Skwigelf, William Murderface and Toki Wartooth are not the first animated super stars, but they sure are first animated metal band to achieve world-wide popularity and massive following. The brains, instruments and vocals behind the Metalocalypse's metal gang is Brendon Small, a man who also started a live band which tours and records in the name of Dethklok. Considering the facts that the band has outgrown the boundaries of it`s original show and gained it`s real life incarnation, that they already have three studio album releases and that their popularity is on a constant rise gave Brendon and Epiphone some material to think about. In the end, Dethklok`s mastermind and Epiphone luthiers joined forces to give Skwiglaar Skwigelf, band`s lead guitarist, his own axe. Ltd. Ed. Brendon Small 'Thunderhorse' Epiphone Outfit is a limited edition guitar with the MSRP set at affordable $999.
