"(Still the thrash)King-V"

Feature:
It's a great guitar but Jackson could have put some EMG's on it then you'd have some screamin' solos.

Quality:
This guitar like any other can be chipped or scratched if you're not careful, but it's very reliable on stage. I'd have 2 for the sake of having a mint condition one to make ppl jealous.

Value:
It would be worth the price if it had either seymore duncan or EMG pickups.

Desirability:
I'd give it a 30 for this. When you walk on stage with this guitar everyone immediately knows that hell is coming their way.

Sound:
This guitar is perfect for thrash/ speed-metal (soloing). It will also get real close to if not exact, the same sound that Dave Mustaine has. I would definantly use this live for reasons that it can take a beating (dont slam it on anything), it shows whos boss on stage, and for easy soloing.

Ease of Use:
Very good instrument it's very easy to move around the neck. I had no trouble while using it.

Support:
I have not yet needed any changes whatsoever on this guitar.

Overall:
I would never replace this one even though i'm really looking for a guitar with a Kahler Tremolo.

"So good you should stab someone with it. "

Feature:
With this guitar, it had duncan designed pickups that got to job done. I wired it through a Laney 120 watt amplifier, and the guitar was well suited with the sound.

Quality:
the product is made quite well and the fineshes are breathtaking. Ive use a metallic red and a metallic blue v and it will not be long before i order my own.

Value:
this guitar has almost impossible bang for the buck. I saw it being sold in a music store for $660. *gulp*

Desirability:
I would consider this guitar a neccesity for all lead metal players who are in a band and a active musician, if your just a hobbyist and just play for fun, don't take a step up to this. I would kill for this peice of equipment

Sound:
the sound of the product was unbeleivable. the fretboard was almost too comfortable to play on. The guitar is great for anything metal or rock. I play metal and my first choice for my guitar would be this one because it could climb up and down the fretboard with ease and precision.

Ease of Use:
It was almost too easy to get great sound from the product. it is very playable and the looks kill people when youre on center stage with it.

Support:
i have not bought this product...yet.

Overall:
when i buy this i wouldn't settle for anything else but a Rhoads V. I've always been particularly fond of its shape and style but the sharp, pointed ends make the peice look a lot more aggressive.

About This Product!
Description
Docs
Jackson's new JS30 series includes their best-ever line up of classic styles, and outstanding value. If you've ever wanted an amazing Jackson Dinky, Kelly, King V or Rhoads, but didn't feel like making the custom shop-priced investment, this is the perfect time to add an aggressive Jackson design to your arsenal. Jackson builds all of the models in this series with an Alder body, a bolt-on Maple neck with a Rosewood fingerboard, Jackson humbuckers and Chrome hardware including an adjustable string-thru-body bridge. The transparent finish models even feature a Maple veneer top!

A Jackson guitar is meant to be played, and played hard. Each of their endorsers and players choose Jackson because they know they build instruments just how they want them -- to handle hard lives on the road, and ready to take whatever players will throw at them. That's the just the way it is, and Jackson wouldn't have it any other way.
