The Jackson X Series King V KVXMG Electric Guitar has a poplar body, through-body maple neck, and bound 12 to 16 inch 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. X series guitars are loaded with purebred Jackson DNA including fantastic tone and ultra-fast playability along with unbelievable value for 21st-century guitarists.

EMG 81/85 Humbucking Pickups

This classic EMG pickup combination features the ever-popular 81, which delivers an impressive amount of high-end cut and fluid sustain. The sophisticated and versatile 85 includes Alnico magnets that can take the player from blues to metal, providing the ability to jump from a smooth lead tone to a deep growl. Other fine features include Floyd Rose Special double-locking tremolo, 24 jumbo frets, and a three-way toggle switch.

Finish

Cloaked in satin black with black bevels, this royal axe is finished off with a Jackson-pointed 6-in-line black headstock and black hardware.

Through-Body Maple Neck

Extending the piece of wood used for the neck through the entire length of the guitar's body allows for greater playability and sustain across the whole instrument. Graphite-reinforcement rods flanking the truss rod provide even more neck stability to help the instrument withstand the rigors of the road, while a scarf joint for an angled back headstock increases the tension behind the nut and eliminates the need for string trees and/or string retainer bars.
