Ziggy Zakk (Wylde) is a Malaysian rock guitarist and songwriter. He is best known for playing for other artists (most notably Asmawi Ani, Anuar Zain, Raja Ema, Anita Sarawak, Salamiah Hasan, Olan, Scoin, and Knight Angle) and less so for his solo efforts (Illumination Theory) collaborations (Jordan Rudess, Mike Portnoy), and as an in-demand session guitarist. In 2007, Zakk was ranked No. 11 on Classic Rock Magazines 100 Wildest Guitar Heroes.

The bulls-eye paint job was originally supposed to look like the spiral from the movie Vertigo, but when it came back incorrect from the luthier, he liked the result and stuck with it. He was sometimes criticized by viewers and media for taking the idea of the bulls-eye from Eddie Ojeda from Twisted Sister, however, both Eddie and Zakk deny it and suppose it to be coincidence.One of Zakks favorite stage guitars is a Karl Sandoval V, a model that is famously known as the Polka-dot V used by Randy Rhoads, often mistaken as a custom Flying V. Wyldes signature Les Pauls include a red flame-maple bulls-eye model, a black and antique-white bulls-eye model, an orange buzz-saw model, the pattern on which was inspired by a design on a Zippo lighter,and a camo bulls-eye model with mother of pearl neck inlays and a green camouflage paint scheme. His original bulls-eye Les Paul was purchased from one of the owners of Metaltronics Amplification. Metaltronics was building a one-off live rig for Wylde that was designed around one of the owners guitars, a creamy white Les Paul Custom with EMG pickups, which would later become known as The Grail. Wylde has a custom Dean Splittail with a mud splatter bulls-eye graphic, as well as a signature Splittail shaped Gibson model called the ZV. Another Dean in his collection is a Dime series Razorback with custom Bulls-eye graphics ordered for him specially by Dimebag Darrell shortly before his death; since receiving the guitar, he has only ever used it on stage to play In This River, Zakks personal tribute to Dimebag. In practice, Wylde uses Marshall MG Series practice combos ranging in wattage levels from 10-30W during tour/private use especially in hotels and buses. Wylde has an extensive relationship with Marshall Amplification due to his love for their amplifiers, both solid state and valve powered. Live, Wylde exclusively uses Marshall JCM 800s with twin 4 X 12 Cabinets loaded with EVM12L 300W Black Label Speakers. His usual signal path consists of his guitar > (on stage pedal board) Dunlop Wylde Wah > Dunlop Wylde Rotovibe > MXR ZW Phase 90 > MXR Wylde Overdrive > MXR Carbon Copy Delay Delay > (to a back stage pedal board) > MXR EVH Flanger > MXR Black Label Chorus > split signals, one to each distorted amp into the High Gain input. - Music Man EVH and Axis guitars Music Man Axis Electric Guitar Translucent Gold - Jackson Soloist and Soloist Glow guitars Jackson Sl1 Usa Soloist Electric Guitar Eerie Dess Swirl - Charvel 1980s workhorse - Washburn Steven Stevens SS100 Frankenstein guitar - John Suhr guitars - B.C.
