Sound & Tone
The mahogany body with flamed maple top and set-neck construction on a 24.625" scale gives this guitar a thick, sustaining voice with a warm low end and slightly relaxed string tension, while the ebony fretboard adds tightness and attack. The EMG 81 in the bridge is cutting and compressed for palm-muted rhythm and searing leads, and the EMG 85 at the neck offers a fatter, smoother tone for solos and mellower passages, with independent volume controls for each pickup allowing quick shifts between them. It lands squarely in heavy rock and metal territory, suiting players who want high-gain clarity, long sustain, and a substantial neck for aggressive riffing.
Wylde Audio Berzerker Corridors Electric Guitar
The Berzerker Corridors grips the player's hand with a thick, commanding neck profile and balanced weight distribution that sustains aggressive attack without fatigue. Designed by Zakk Wylde, this instrument channels the responsiveness of a 24.625" scale through robust set-neck construction that locks every dynamic into sustain and tonal definition. The gothic "Corridors" finish with twisted hall motif over flamed maple commands the stage with visual presence that mirrors its sonic character.
Playability & Construction
The 3-piece maple neck with set-neck deep insert joint construction holds its tuning across hour-long sets and decades of heavy riffing. The Zakk 'C' profile — measuring 20.83mm at the 1st fret and 23.87mm at the 12th fret — delivers a thick, substantial feel built for crushing riffs, while the 14" fretboard radius with 22 X-Jumbo frets on ebony flows under your fingers across the entire range. The 43mm Graph Tech XL Ivory Tusq nut and TonePros Locking Tune-O-Matic bridge lock in intonation and eliminate tuning slip when you're pushing the instrument hard on stage.
Tone & Electronics
The EMG 81 Active bridge pickup cuts through the mix with tight aggression, perfect for rhythm attacks and lead definition, while the EMG 85 Active neck pickup delivers smooth, fat warmth for solos and cleaner tones. Independent neck and bridge volume controls paired with a master tone knob and 3-way pickup selector switch let you dial your voice on the fly, with the 9V battery compartment housed inside the control cavity for quick access between sets.

Frequently Asked Questions
What skill level is this guitar for?
The Corridors Berzerker is built for intermediate through professional players. The thick Zakk 'C' profile neck (20.83mm at the 1st fret, 23.87mm at the 12th fret) is substantial and demands hand strength; the 24.625" scale length and drop-tuning capability suit experienced heavy players and studio professionals.
Does this guitar work in standard tuning, or only drop tunings?
The Berzerker handles both standard and drop tunings excellently. The 24.625" scale, set-neck design, and TonePros Locking Tune-O-Matic bridge maintain intonation stability across tuning ranges, though the guitar excels in metal, hard rock, and drop-tuned contexts.
What pickups are included and can I control them separately?
The guitar ships with an EMG 81 Active bridge pickup (cutting, aggressive tone) and an EMG 85 Active neck pickup (smooth, warm tone). Independent volume controls for each pickup, plus a master tone knob and 3-way selector, let you dial in tones for rhythm, lead, or mix blending without swapping pickups.
How do I maintain or replace the 9V battery for the active electronics?
The 9V battery compartment is housed inside the control cavity on the guitar's body, allowing straightforward access for battery changes without removing any hardware or disassembling the instrument.
How does this compare to the Schecter Hellraiser C-1 or ESP LTD EC-1000?
All three are professional-grade set-neck instruments with active pickups and locking hardware. The Berzerker's Zakk 'C' profile neck is thicker and more substantial than typical profiles, the EMG pairing is purpose-voiced for aggression and warmth, and the Graph Tech nut and TonePros bridge provide industry-standard tuning stability comparable to those models.
Do I pay sales tax on this order?
Sales tax is collected only on orders shipped to California; orders shipped to any other US state are not charged sales tax at checkout when you buy direct from our website. At a typical 7% rate that is an estimated $119 less at checkout than the same listed price on a marketplace, which collects sales tax as the facilitator in most states. Buyers remain responsible for any use tax their state applies. Free US shipping and 30-day returns are included.
