Description
The Jackson Pro Plus Signature Phil Demmel King V KV with Ebony Fretboard in Polka Dot is built for the modern metal guitarist who needs precision, aggression, and attitude in one package. Designed with input from Phil Demmel himself-best known for his work with Machine Head and Vio-lence-this guitar delivers the speed and sonic power demanded by technical metal players and gigging pros. That iconic polka dot finish nods to metal's flamboyant side, but make no mistake; this thing is all business under the hood.
You've got a mahogany body with a neck-thru three-piece maple neck, reinforced with graphite so it stays solid under stage lights or studio pressure. A compound radius ebony fretboard with 24 jumbo frets keeps your playing smooth, whether you're riffing low or bending high. EMG 81 and 60 humbuckers give you that tight, aggressive tone with articulate highs and a searing lead voice. Add in a Floyd Rose 1000 double-locking trem for dive bombs that come back in tune, and you've got a seriously dialed-in machine.
The King V's sharp contours aren't just for show; the balance is solid, and the neck profile feels right in the hand for fast, intricate work. Dual volume controls let you get creative on the fly, and the Jackson locking strap buttons keep it secure during live sets. We've seen a lot of pointy guitars over the years, but this one just feels right-built for metal, built to last.
