Watch Ediee Ironbunny shred to save rock ’n’ roll in this ‘23 - twenty three’ playthrough
Japanese hard-rockers Ironbunny are a Kawaii metal group fronted by three vocalists: Hina, Kotono and Minami. So far, so Babymetal. But do Babymetal have a cyborg guitarist who comes from a future 300 years ahead? Hell no.
Meet Ediee Ironbunny, the automated shred machine who has time-travelled back to 2019 in order to save rock ’n’ roll - and, as it happens, film an exclusive playthrough video for Guitar World.
This clip for new single ‘23 - twenty three’ showcases Ediee’s precision-engineered riff delivery system, as well as his/her/its astonishingly lifelike lead technique, complete with a slick tapping flourish to round out the solo.

Of course, no cyborg electric guitar performance would be complete without a fretboard equipped with cycling green LEDs, which appear in Ediee’s Combat Guitar IB7, also fitted with a Bare Knuckle Aftermath in the bridge and Sustainiac in the neck.
Ediee’s not the only supreme guitar talent to grace Ironbunny’s debut album, ‘Tettsui no alternative’, either; Warren DeMartini, Doug Aldrich and George Lynch also lend their skills in honor of the band’s noble quest.
