Melancon had Dimarzio custom wind some for them.

but Gerard will put whatever the customer asks for.

that guitar has a Dimarzio Area 61 in neck
Dimarzio area 58 middle
Suhr humbucker

most of his guitars are his take on strats & teles
1000% attention to detail
not to mention a great guy.
(and an incredible player)
