Zacky Vengeance

Zacky Vengeance is sponsored by Jet City Amplification, and uses as Jet City 333 amp. The amp has "a 100 watt and 50 watt switch on them. So they're pretty cool for bands that don't have iso cabs. We've got iso cabs, so we leave it on the 100 watt setting 'cause it doesn't matter how loud it gets," Veangence's guitar tech says at (16:50).

At 0:02 in this video, we can see Zacky playing this guitar

Zacky primarily used this guitar during 2009. It was not much different from his well-known ZV special, it featured Seymour Duncan JB humbucking pickups (instead of Double Coils on the ZV Special) and the Vengeance University logo on the body. It has gold inlays and the Vengeance University logo on the 12th fret.

At 2:47 in the Guitar Center video, Zacky Vengeance mentions using the Marshall JVM410H amplifier. From 2007 to around 2010, Zacky reportedly used the JVM210H, while Synyster Gates opted for the JVM205. According to the Jet City Amps page, Zacky has also used their 100, 100HDM, and JCA models on the last three Avenged Sevenfold albums, which aligns with his preference for 100-watt amps, typically run at half power for live performances.

In this Premier Guitar Rig Rundown video, guitar tech for Avenged Sevenfold's Zacky Vengeance shows us the guitarists' Schecter Signature Model. The pickups, "are JB's...[this] is his main guitar for Drop D tunings," the tech says at (12:25). Vengeance uses the same guitar in different finishes and tunings for different songs in Avenged Sevenfold's set.

The A7X guitarist also uses an MXR Custom Comp pedal, spotted in this Premier Guitar video at (17:10).

Zacky Vengeance has an Ibanez Tone-Lok LF7 Lo-Fi Filter pedal, as seen in this video at (17:30).

At 0:15 Zacky is seen playing a Schecter S-1 in see through red

"The Gynecologist" was a guitar Zacky Vengeance used in the 'Beast And The Harlot' music video. He also used this guitar in 2006 while on the 'City of Evil' tour. The Gynecologist is a Schecter S-1 Elite Custom model that is EXTREMELY rare. The guitar is not available through Schecter. Only two have been produced and Zacky has both of them.

The guitar's body is solid mohogany and has a 3-pc mohagany set neck, a rosewood neck board and black binding. The fretboard has 22 Jumbo frets and a thin C shape neck. It has a clear white non glossy finish, red blood splatters and a clear coat finish to top it off.

The components consist of black Grover tuners, Seymour Duncan Invaders (or JBs) and a Tonepros string thru-body bridge. There is one volume knob, two tone knobs, a three-way selector switch and push-pull coil splitting.

Apparently Zacky still has this guitar in his home, in a special room called his guitar throne room.

This is Zacky's bridge pickup.

in this photo, one of zacky’s personal guitars, specifically the Schecter ZV Blade. As you can see the guitar on the left side of the photo, it has been modified with a sustainiac system for unknown reason.

This guitar was used by ZV on many occasions during 2011. There were a limited run of these by Schecter

This was sometime during at least a 2016 or 2017 show. This model was used by zacky to perform a song that required 24 frets, and at schecter they engraved the signature “6661” on it.

Zacky Vengeance uses an MXR Black Label Chorus pedal, spotted in this Rig Rundown video at (17:10). "That's pretty much for the clean part in 'Bat Country'," Vengeance's tech said.

In 2016, Zacky Vengeance added the Schecter Vengeance Custom to his guitar collection, as noted by Schecter Guitars.

Throughout this whole video you see Zacky Vengence Playing The Tri Amp. He was using Hughes and Kettner amps for many interviews in that era and I am sure he used the amp in a 2005-2007 span before becoming a Marshall the eventually Jet City user.

The Schecter Zacky Vengeance Mirror Electric Guitar has a wild fractured-mirror maple top, a double-cutaway mahogany body, set mahogany neck, and a 22-fret ebony fingerboard. A Schecter Ultra Access neck joint lets you reach the entire fretboard with ease and comfort.

The guitar's TonePros bridge system includes a Tune-o-matic style bridge with a stopbar tailpiece for stability and sustain. The Zacky Vengeance Mirror Custom is loaded with a pair of Seymour Duncan JB humbucking pickups with push/pull coil-splitting for an incredible range of tones.

Other appointments include mother-of-pearl dot inlays, black fretboard and body binding, and chrome hardware.

In the video of the Breakdown of the song "Save Me", Zacky is seen using the guitar at 0:45 and 9:59-10:05. Zacky also had a limited run of these guitars in 2010.

Zacky Vengeance is seen on the far right in this music video for NOFX. Zacky is seen playing a Gibson SG Standard Black guitar, rather than his signiture schecter model that he usually uses.

At 1:37, Zacky talks about the specs of this guitar. This certain model is mainly recognized during many performances in 2008 and 2009. He has another version of this guitar with a different graphic.

Unfortunately, Louis Vuitton sent a cease and desist to Schecter over the ZV logo looking too much like the LV logo. Therefore making the model discontinued.

There was a different and special run of these guitars with the same graphic, but in silver instead of gold.

Recent findings have confirmed that this guitar, once thought to be a one-off or unreleased prototype, did in fact receive a limited production run. A total of 100 units were manufactured as part of a short-run release under the Schecter Artist Series. Zacky Vengeance notably used this model throughout 2008, with its most prominent appearances featured in the Live in the LBC concert film—specifically during ‘Scream,’ ‘Almost Easy,’ and ‘A Little Piece of Heaven.’ With verified serial numbers now emerging, this guitar has solidified its place as one of the most coveted limited editions among Avenged Sevenfold and Schecter collectors

This photo was taken from a concert intro during the Taste of Chaos tour in 2008. ZV is holding Synyster Gates’ Confederate Flag guitar.

This was from an interview with Ultimate Guitar. Vengeance was asked a question if he remembered his first guitar.

"I do. It was a Fender Squier Strat, right-handed that was strung upside down. When I first picked up a guitar, it was really hard to find left-handed guitars and I didn't even really understand the concept. I just figured a guitar was a guitar and I just happened to play it weird."

In this video at 24:22 you can see zacky using a schecter solo 6 at the Camden, NJ concert on the song Sunny Disposition. This model is not available to the public and he rarley uses it on stage. No specifics on the guitar are available at this time.

Zacky used this guitar during the performance of “Walk”, a Pantera song covered by A7X. ZV played this guitar at Ozzfest 2006 during the cover of Walk. Not much information on the guitar is known.

"His main guitar has a set of Seymour Duncan JB humbucker"

In the photo, Zacky is using the Vengeance Standard Platinum. This was the first signature model of Zacky Vengeance to be released, around 2006-2007.
