Overview

Designed for thrash metal legends and aspiring shredders.

The Jackson X Series Signature Scott Ian King V KVXT electric guitar delivers the precision, power, and tone demanded by Anthrax guitarist Scott Ian. Built for thrash metal and high-energy performances, this guitar features a mahogany body and a neck-through-body maple neck with graphite reinforcement for rock-solid stability and sustain. The 12"-16" compound radius laurel fingerboard with jumbo frets ensures fluid playability and precision, whether you're riffing or shredding. High-output Jackson humbuckers provide a crushing tonal palette, while the TOM-style adjustable bridge with anchored tailpiece enhances tuning stability and sustain. With its striking gloss black finish, three-ply pickguard, and gold hardware, the King V KVXT is as visually commanding as it is sonically powerful.

Jackson Humbuckers Deliver Crushing Tonal Power

Equipped with a pair of Jackson high-output humbuckers, the KVXT offers a searing tonal range ideal for heavy riffing and lead work. The bridge pickup delivers aggressive, full-bodied tones with plenty of bite for cutting through dense mixes, while the neck pickup provides warmth and clarity for fluid solos and melodic passages. The three-way toggle switch allows you to seamlessly alternate between pickups or combine them for a versatile sonic blend. Whether you're playing rhythm or lead, these pickups deliver the precision and punch needed for commanding performances.

Compound Radius Fingerboard Enhances Playability

The 12"-16" compound radius laurel fingerboard on this King V transitions from a rounded profile at the nut for comfortable chording to a flatter radius near the body for effortless bends and fast runs. Jumbo frets provide ample room for intricate fingerwork and heavy bending, while pearloid block inlays add a touch of elegance. Combined with the neck-through-body construction, this design ensures a smooth playing experience and superior sustain, allowing every note to ring out with clarity and authority.

Precision Hardware for Stable Performance

The Jackson KVXT is outfitted with a TOM-style adjustable bridge and anchored tailpiece, which work together to provide exceptional tuning stability and sustain. This hardware setup ensures precise intonation adjustments and withstands the demands of aggressive playing. Jackson sealed die-cast tuners offer smooth tuning action and reliability, even during long sets. Paired with the reinforced neck construction, this hardware ensures the guitar remains dependable and road-ready through every performance.

Striking Design With Durable Build

The King V's mahogany body is finished in a sleek gloss black, accented by a three-ply black pickguard and gold hardware for a commanding stage presence. The neck-through-body design with a scarf joint and graphite reinforcement offers unmatched durability and stability, ensuring the guitar holds up under intense playing conditions. Whether you're rehearsing, recording, or performing live, the KVXT's robust build delivers long-term reliability and consistent performance.
