Here for sale we have a Jackson KV3 King V electric guitar in Gloss Black finish. Made in Japan between the 190’s-2000’s, this guitar features a bolt-on construction comprising a Poplar body, Maple neck and 24 Jumbo fret Rosewood fingerboard. This guitar is fitted with Chrome hardware including a Floyd Rose Licenced Jackson double locking tremolo system and Jackson sealed tuning machines. The pickups installed are a pair of Duncan Design DD102 humbuckers, these are wired to a 3-way toggle switch, master volume and master tone controls.
The Maple neck plays very well, with the 'Speed Neck' profile sitting comfortably in the hand and offering a razor sharp and precise playing experience in all registers. The neck is certainly slim, and features a flattened area to the centre that provides ergonomic thumb positioning for those fast lead lines and solos. This is enhanced by the Rosewood fingerboard, which with its 12"-16" compound radius delivers a tailored playing experience in any position. Chord playing is comfortable in the lower register, whilst the flatter radius in the higher register is well suited to lead playing and string bending. The Jumbo frets provide a rock solid playing surface, whilst also improving vibrato and string bending feel.
The pair of Duncan Design DD102 humbuckers installed in this guitar produce a thick and full-bodied tone, perfect for more distortion-heavy styles of music. The neck position is nicely round, with an articulate and detailed bass response, driving mids and shimmering high frequencies that cut through the mix very effectively. The bridge pickup is clearly brighter, and with a higher output saturates into a searing distortion when cranking the grain. The simple control layout offers comprehensive control of your tone without being intrusive, meaning you can focus on your playing.
