Michael "Whip" Wilton is the co-founder of Queensrÿche, a band that launched in 1982 and crossed into many musical areas from hard rock to progressive metal to hugely popular power ballads, influencing thousands of musicians along the way. His latest LTD Signature Series guitar is the MW-TR1, and it's representational of the killer stripped-down, bolt-on models that Whip turned to often in the band's early days. Featuring a large Queensrÿche "Tri-Ryche" symbol on the guitar's body as well as on fingerboard inlays, the MW-TR1 has a great vibe for serious fans of Michael and the band, and plays like a dream with its comfortable alder body, a thin U-shaped maple neck, and maple fingerboard with 22 extra-jumbo frets. The MW-TR1 offers Grover tuners, a Floyd Rose Special bridge, and a completely awesome set of Seymour Duncan '59 (neck) and Seymour Duncan Distortion (bridge) pickups. Available in Black finish with single Tri-Ryche graphic.
