Jackson Pro KV King V Gloss Black

The guitar looks amazing, it’s light, comfortable, and super well-balanced (no neck dive, which is great). The Duncan Distortions are killer for metal, but they’ve got enough versatility if you want to branch out a bit. That said, let’s be real—if you’re buying this kind of guitar, you already know what you’re aiming for. The Floyd Rose 1000 is stable and keeps tuning locked in. The neck feels awesome—smooth, fast, and the frets are just perfect.

The only downsides are some small cosmetic things: the neck binding isn’t 100% clean (a couple of tiny spots where the wood shows through), there are minor flaws on the fretboard near the neck pickup, and the paint transition from body to neck could’ve been done better.

Nothing that affects playability though, it’s just a bit of a shame, because at this price you’d expect flawless details. Overall, it’s a great guitar and I’m really happy with it.
