The 2015 Dean Dave Mustaine Zero Punk is a minimalist, aggressive metal guitar featuring a solid mahogany body, set mahogany neck with a fast "D" profile, ebony fretboard, and a powerful Seymour Duncan Live Wire humbucker for raw, punchy tone. Designed for pure metal performance, it boasted simplified controls (master volume only), black hardware, string-thru bridge, and a sleek Z-shaped body with a striking black finish and signature Mustaine graphics, embodying the "less is more" philosophy for heavy riffs.
