Jackson X Series Signature Scott Ian King V Electric Guitar - Baldini Reviews
Jackson’s X Series Scott Ian King V is a signature 6-string electric guitar fit for thrash metal royalty! Starting off with a maple-topped nyatoh body, the X Series Scott Ian King V boasts a through-body maple neck for singing sustain and cutting clarity. Whether you’re crunching out old-school thrash riffs or modern metal brutality, you’ll be sure to love how the rosewood fingerboard’s 12-16-inch compound radius and jumbo frets unlock effortless playability from the first fret all the way up to the 22nd. Beyond that, Scott’s custom Jackson High-output Humbucking pickups cover just about every high-gain tone in the book, with an aggressive edge, tight lows, and defined highs. Top it all off with a rock-solid Floyd Rose Special Double-locking tremolo, and it all adds up to a killer signature Jackson that can hang with the best of them.

Amazing guitar.
And absolute beast out of the box. Probably going to upgrade the Floyd, the locking nut and put some locking tuners on it. The finish is amazing. Seems to play real well. Highly recommend.

my sales rep ryan was the man on this and jumped right on it for me

but out the box this thing after you setup and tune it rocks man
Killer Guitar!!
I bought this guitar a few months after it was released. I love it. It sounds great and is pretty light (for those that have shoulder, neck, back problems like myself). Feels and plays great!! I love the color and how it looks. Only issue I have is that it gets out of tune quick. I was told at Guitar Center to add a spring and that should help guitar stay in tune. I use 9-46 gauge strings. So I will add another spring and see how that works.
Great, but could be better.......
Overall i'm really impressed with these asian Jacksons. The neck is extremely fast and plays like butter. Pickups are excellent. With this model, i just don't get why they use a chrome Floyd when the knobs, switch are black. So what i did was replace the cheap Floyd with a black, original German Floyd and now it's the perfect killer look and sound. A great overall shred machine with a simple upgrade.
