The Bravery is a band that combines old-school rock attitude with new wave songwriting, so it makes sense that guitar Michael Zakarin would choose the vintage-styled Delia LS for his custom guitar. Aside from flipping it around to accommodate his left-handed playing, he left the guitar more or less as is, including the classic mahogany body and single-coil pickups. The biggest change comes with the finish. He decided on a reddish-brown stain for a classic worn-in look. The First Act guitarmakers also fashioned a custom rising sun pickguard for this guitar, to reflect the band’s latest album artwork.
