Justin Schut is a metal guitarist from The Netherlands, playing with Dutch metal legends MARTYR and female fronted metal band Phrasing.
Martyr is a thrash/power metal band that’s been around since 1982.

The debut album “For The Universe” from the same year is still considered a classic in heavy metal circles.
The group frequently performs as a headliner or as a support act for bigger names such as Trivium, Iced Earth, Saxon, Evergrey, Raven, Flotsam & Jetsam and others. The absolute highlights of Martyr’s career so far have been their 3 tours in Japan, which featured frenzied crowds. Martyr is currently on tour supporting their 2022 album “Planet Metalhead”, which was named Album of the Year by Metalfan.nl

Ever since I got my blood red A2.6 back in 2018, I’ve been a big fan of the looks, sounds and playability of Solar guitars. The Solar neck profile, combined with the satin finish, is a joy to play. Combine this with the Evertune, Fishmans, SS frets and locking tuners on my V1.6 and I’m ready to hit the stage!
