Jackson Phil Demmel Signature King V

Jackson is supremely stoked to unveil the magnificent Demmelition King V Electric Guitar. This is a guitar designed in collaboration with guitarist Phil Demmel of Grammy-nominated thrashmeisters Machine Head as a striking Pro Series artist signature model.


The Demmelition King V has the line s classic sharp V-shaped alder body, with a more aggressive edge thanks to its additional cutouts and set up for the low-tuned brutal player. Its through-body quartersawn maple neck features a bound compound-radius ebony fingerboard (12 to 16 ) with 24 jumbo frets, mother-of-pearl shark fin position inlays and black-bound headstock with an inlaid mother-of-pearl Jackson logo. The barrage comes from an EMG 81 bridge pickup and an EMG 60 neck pickup, each with its own CTS volume control and both controlled by a three-way Switchcraft switch. Other features include a Floyd Rose Original double-locking two-point tremolo bridge, black hardware and die-cast tuners.
