Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Jackson's KVXMG King V is built around a Floyd Rose Special double-locking tremolo, EMG 85/81 active humbuckers, and a 24-fret compound-radius laurel fingerboard. The tremolo is intended for wide pitch changes, including dive-bomb and squeal techniques, while the EMG 81 sits at the bridge and the EMG 85 at the neck. Its neck-through maple construction includes graphite reinforcement. A three-way switch, master volume, and tone control keep pickup selection and adjustment straightforward.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players using radical pitch bends, dive bombs, and squeal techniques with a locking tremolo.
- Parts that use the bridge EMG 81 or neck EMG 85 pickup voices.
