A Brutal, One-of-One Tone Weapon Built to Command the Stage.
Make no mistake—The Predator: Black Limba Edition is not here to lurk in the background.
It’s here to own the room.
With its massive, aggressive, sharp-edged body, pushing the classic Explorer silhouette into full heavy-metal territory, this guitar was designed for players who want to be seen, felt, and remembered. One glance, and the crowd knows: something dangerous just took the stage.
This is the second creation in a three-guitar collection. Each is completely unique. Each is built from hand-selected tonewood. And like all in the series, there will only ever be one Predator like this.
Raw, Untamed, and Alive
Carved from a single solid slab of black limba, The Predator: Black Limba Edition showcases nature’s own artwork. No paint. No distractions. Just a hand-rubbed oil finish that exposes every fierce, dramatic line of the grain.
Matched with a black limba neck and royal blackwood fretboard, this guitar looks like it was carved from the heart of a storm—wild, elegant, and ready to explode with sound.
One Pickup. Maximum Damage.
The Predator’s electronics are stripped down to pure brutality:
A lone Seymour Duncan Black Winter Rail in the bridge.
No toggles. No complexity. No mercy.
With just a single black speed knob for volume control, this guitar channels every ounce of its energy straight into your riffs.
This pickup delivers crushing lows, chainsaw mids, and top-end bite sharp enough to split the earth. Plug in and it hits like a war hammer.
Black Hardware for a Look That Hits as Hard as It Sounds
Equipped with all-black Gotoh hardtail bridge and Gotoh locking tuners, this guitar is built for stability, sustain, and recklessly heavy playing. Every component is dialed in for battle-grade reliability.
Branded by Fire — The Mark of the Predator
The headstock is seared with the Jon Wade Guitars mark using a custom forged branding iron—a literal forge-born stamp declaring its origin.
No decal. No paint.
Just fire, steel, and the permanence of a scar earned in the flames.
A Singular Beast
There is no second Predator like this.
No backups. No alternates.
This is a one-of-one guitar, handcrafted from wood chosen personally by Jon Wade for its tone, character, and soul.
Built to Dominate
The Predator: Black Limba Edition is not subtle.
Not quiet.
Not polite.
It is loud in presence, in stance, in tone.
On stage, it demands attention before the first note. Plugged in, it owns the mix. It is a guitar for players who tear through boundaries and expect their instrument to match their ferocity.
If you want to play it safe, look elsewhere.
If you want to rule the stage—this is your weapon.
Become The Predator.
