A modded-out Lynx built to Dweezil’s specs
 
The Lynx DZ is a faithful reproduction of Dweezil Zappa’s heavily modded Shabat Lynx model, including his body-mounted HSS configuration with a push/pull phase shift on the middle pickup, simplified single-knob layout, custom-cut 3-ply parchment/gold pickguard, and fitted with a Vega-Trem VT1 tremolo.
