Wylde Audio Barbarian Rawtop Electric Guitar in Psychic Bullseye

The Wylde Audio Barbarian Rawtop in Psychic Bullseye is a no-compromise metal machine built to Zakk Wylde’s exacting standards. With a mahogany body capped by a flamed maple top, a chunky Zakk C neck profile and the iconic EMG 81/85 active humbuckers, it is purpose-built for crushing riffs, searing leads and rock-solid tuning stability on stage or in the studio.

Every detail is geared towards power, clarity and feel. The set-neck maple construction and ebony fretboard deliver immediate attack and long, singing sustain, while the TonePros bridge and Grover Rotomatic tuners keep everything locked in and ready for high-gain punishment. Finished in the unmistakable Psychic Bullseye Rawtop, this Barbarian looks as aggressive as it sounds.

High-Gain Power with EMG 81/85

Loaded with the legendary EMG 81 in the bridge and EMG 85 in the neck, the Barbarian serves up tight, focused rhythm tones and fluid, singing leads. These active pickups provide a strong, low-noise signal that cuts through dense mixes, excelling in high-gain situations while still offering articulate cleans and responsive dynamics.

Mahogany Body with Flamed Maple Rawtop

The classic combination of a mahogany body and flamed maple top gives this guitar a rich, powerful core tone with added brightness and definition. Mahogany brings warmth and punch, while the flamed maple cap adds clarity and snap, ensuring every riff and solo remains clear and commanding. The Psychic Bullseye Rawtop finish showcases the flame for a striking stage presence.

Set-Neck Maple Construction and Ebony Fretboard

The set-neck maple design creates a strong, seamless connection between neck and body, enhancing sustain and resonance. Paired with an ebony fretboard, you get a fast, smooth playing surface with a clear, precise tonal response, ideal for rapid-fire runs, wide vibrato and aggressive bends.

Zakk C Neck Profile and X-Jumbo Frets

The Zakk C neck profile offers a substantial, secure feel in the hand, perfect for heavy riffing and controlled lead work. 22 X-Jumbo frets make big bends and vibrato effortless, giving you excellent grip on the string and helping notes ring out with authority across the entire fretboard.

TonePros Bridge and Grover Rotomatic Tuners

The TonePros LPM04 bridge is engineered for maximum stability and efficient transfer of string vibration to the body, improving sustain and tuning consistency. Combined with Grover Rotomatic 18:1 tuners, you get precise, reliable tuning adjustment that stays put, even under aggressive playing and frequent string bending.
