Mike Akerfeldt, Opeth Print Advert
Client: Headline Music UK
PRS welcomes frontman Mike Åkerfeldt of Opeth to the PRS family with this signature model SE.
As the lead vocalist and guitarist for the acclaimed death metal band Opeth, Mikael traverses the musical terrain with sounds that are “subject to savage punctuations of death metal fury at any given moment.” Åkerfeldt once commented on the diversity of Opeth’s music.
His new model follows suit with a singlecut mahogany body, maple top and flame maple veneer, maple neck with ebony fretboard, 24 jumbo frets, one of the first SE models to include old-school bird inlays, PRS designed tremolo bridge, gold hardware, HFS and Vintage Bass pickups, volume, tone, 3-way toggle. A Tortoise Shell finish with a Opeth “O” logo on body give this guitar a unique look to compliment a unique voice.
All that’s great for the gear heads but his signature advert had to be classic PRS. A great artist shot from Jordan, another great product shot and a classy layout.
