Description
This is the Scott Ian King V KVXT from Jackson's X Series; a signature model built for fans of high-gain riffing, sharp design, and dependable performance. This guitar is ideal for intermediate to advanced players, especially those chasing tight rhythms and searing leads in a metal or hard rock context. Scott Ian's name on the headstock isn't just for show; this is a serious player's guitar that draws directly from his decades of road-proven experience.
You've got a mahogany body paired with a through-body maple neck, so it's got both the warmth and the snap you want in a guitar that needs to cut. The 24.75" scale keeps everything feeling familiar for Les Paul-style players, while the high-output Jackson humbuckers give you all the aggression you need without losing clarity. Add the TOM-style bridge and anchored tailpiece, and you've got a rock-solid setup that handles chugging and solos alike without flinching.
Playability is on point too; the compound-radius fingerboard makes chord work easy down low and opens up nicely for leads up high. With 22 jumbo frets, pearloid block inlays, and a slick Gloss Black finish with gold hardware, it looks as fierce as it feels. We've seen a lot of metal guitars come through the shop, and this one punches way above its price-no-nonsense, road-ready, and built to thrash.
