Synyster Gates is the lead guitarist for the band Avenged Sevenfold.
He has been sponsored by Schecter Guitar Research since 2004, and has signature Avenger models.
An interesting fact I found is that Synyster Gates attended the Musicians Institute in Hollywood as part of the GIT program, studying jazz guitar.
