Limited-run King V from Phil Demmel and Jackson

Across his vast body of work with such acclaimed metal acts as Machine Head, Vio-Lence, and Metal Allegiance — not to mention his stints with Lamb of God, Slayer, and others — Phil Demmel has relied on one consistent name throughout his career: Jackson. Available for a limited time, the Pro Plus Phil Demmel King V represents the latest axe that can hold up to Phil's demanding schedule and playing style. Primed for nothing short of total sonic destruction, this Jackson King V is armed with a mahogany body, 3-piece maple neck with graphite reinforcement, Luminlay side dots, an ebony compound-radius fingerboard with 24 jumbo frets, EMG pickups, and a Floyd Rose 1000 double-locking tremolo. To top it off, a special Polka Dot finish pays homage to one of Phil's greatest guitar heroes, Randy Rhoads, making the Pro Plus Phil Demmel King V a worthy mainstay in any guitar arsenal.

Ready to do battle from the word go, the Jackson Pro Plus Phil Demmel King V sports a 3-piece maple neck-through neck with graphite reinforcement, flanked by mahogany wings. This combination adds resilience to the King V's structural integrity and imbues it with a warm yet punchy profile. The ebony fingerboard atop the maple neck delivers a dark, striking appearance that blends perfectly with the body finish.

Floyd Rose 1000 for precise pitch control

In typical Jackson fashion, this incredible Pro Plus Phil Demmel King V was built with quality hardware. That’s why you’ll find a Floyd Rose 1000 Series double-locking bridge/tailpiece onboard. The Floyd Rose is recessed into the body, allowing for the ability to both raise and lower the pitch. Any user will feel right at home with this tremolo, giving impressive tuning stability while adding to the Pro Plus Phil Demmel King V's prowess.

Speedy neck for fast runs up high

The Jackson Pro Plus Phil Demmel King V features a 12- to 16-inch compound-radius fingerboard for ultimate playability. The fingerboard is rounder near the nut for easy chording and fast single-note riffing. As your playing moves up the fretboard, the radius flattens out to 16 inches. Not only is this easier for high-speed runs, but a flatter radius is ideal for wide string bends and vibrato. Players at Sweetwater know that with a neck that plays this slick, you’ll be up at the 24th fret before you know it.

Powerful and aggressive tones from EMG humbuckers

The combination of EMG pickups in the Pro Plus Phil Demmel King V gives you the perfect balance of tone shaping and sheer destructive power. The EMG 60 neck pickup boasts the grumbling low-end sound you crave that cleans up well. The EMG 81 bridge pickup sharpens things up with a snarlingly aggressive attack that effortlessly cuts through just about any mix. Put the two together, and you have an ultra-powerful, intimidating sonic duo that makes this axe sound just great as it looks. Guitarists at Sweetwater agree, this pickup combination is primed for modern rock and metal.
