Mikael Åkerfeldt is a Swedish musician, best known as the current lead singer, lead guitar player and songwriter of progressive metal band Opeth, and lead singer of death metal band Bloodbath.

One most excellent thing is that Åkerfeldt is known to be the basis for the character Toki Wartooth from the popular cartoon Metalocalypse!

Let's see what Akerfeldt plays for a guitar gear rig and equipment.
