X Series King V KVXMG
X Series guitars are loaded with purebred Jackson DNA - including fantastic tone and ultra-fast playability - along with unbelievable value for 21st century guitarists. The Jackson X Series King V™ KVXMG has a poplar body, through-body maple neck and bound 12"-16" compound-radius laurel fingerboard that curves more dramatically at the nut for easy chording and flattens out as it approaches the neck joint for low-action bends without fretting out. Active EMG® 85 (neck) and 81 (bridge) humbucking pickups deliver well-balanced tone with tight bass, glassy mids and crunching highs. Other fine features include Floyd Rose® Special double-locking tremolo, 24 jumbo frets, and three-way toggle switch. Cloaked in either Satin Black or Slime Green with Black Bevels, this royal axe is finished off with a Jackson pointed 6-in-line black headstock and black hardware.
