Fernandes Dragonfly (Pro Series)

In the official video for "Love You To Death" by Type O Negative, Kenny Hickey is observed playing a guitar that closely resembles the Fernandes Dragonfly (Pro Series). Despite its appearance being predominantly black, careful observation reveals details such as green-like inlays on the fretboard, suggesting modifications to the original instrument. This identification is supported by visual comparison, although it is noted that the pickups may have been replaced. The video is provided by Roadrunner Records.
