FINALLY! NGD King V Elite!

[AdRock]

Goddamn it Ron stop being so petandic (see what i did there? ).

AdRock, i think starting a spreadsheet is a great idea, here's where we are so far just from this thread and from the store i ordered my KV from:

110984 Elite Soloist (Black)
111058 Elite RR (Trans Black) http://www.nevadamusic.co.uk/guitar/...rt-randy-roads
111105 Elite King V (Silver Sparkle)
111140 Elite RR (Black)
111148 Elite Soloist (Cabernet Red)
111168 Elite Soloist (Absinthe Frost) http://www.nevadamusic.co.uk/guitar/...st-ltd-edition
111206 Elite King V (Black)
111226 Elite RRT (Silver Sparkle, fixed bridge) http://www.nevadamusic.co.uk/guitar/...andy-rhoads-ss

Cool thanks.

Maybe we can talk VanHoosen into contacting Jackson and getting the specs for each body style like he did for his V that he posted on page 2 in here. This would make it easier for me to get a spreadsheet setup fairly correctly the first time. Hello VanHoosen are your ears burning.

DESCRIPTION	The Jackson Elite Soloist solid body electric guitar is built with the highest grade components: a pair of Seymour Duncan Pickups, recessed Original Floyd Rose tremolo, 24 jumbo frets, and a neck-thru neck with an ebony fingerboard. Controls include 1 volume and two tone controls which allows for tight bass, glassy mids and shimmering highs. Jackson's compound radius fingerboard curves more dramatically at the nut for easy and comfortable chording and flattens out as it approaches the neck joint for low-action bends without fretting out. With a more relaxed hand, you have more endurance to play longer..and better!

Badasss Thanks.

So now does anyone have the finishes available for each one?

[VanHoosen]

Totally, I just dropped them a line. I'm sure they'll get back to me in about a month...

[VanHoosen]

Badasss Thanks.

So now does anyone have the finishes available for each one?

If Fender sends me specs for all three body styles and the hard tail Rhoads they'll (hopefully) have all of the colors. Here's what I can think of off the top of my head:

Soloist:

Silver Dragon
Cabaret Red - 291-8200-816
Absinthe Frost - 291-8200-830
Amber - 291-8200-801
Trans Black - 291-8200-885
Black - 291-8200-803

Rhoads:

Quicksilver - 291-8300-821 (floyd)
Silver Sparkle - 291-8302-870
Black with Yellow Pinstripe - 291-8302-808 & 291-8300-808 (floyd)
White with black pinstripe - 291-8300-848 (floyd)
Black
Trans Black - 291-8300-885 (floyd)

And the KV ones are all on the spec sheet along with their model numbers.

[JacksonEliteFan]

I just found some crazy shit: http://www.musicworldbrilon.de/Gitar...qq5jfno22g1jk6 I hope that I don't do anything wrong by posting the whole shop page, but take yourself a look and pay attention to not loose your eyes. I think the color shall indicate that you better better watch out .

[VanHoosen]

Hmmm, kind of strange it has pinstripes. The other Absynthe Frost King Vs I've seen we're solid. Also the KV spec sheet only specified white with Absynthe pinstripes. So is this a new color, or something Photoshopped?

[VanHoosen]

Anyone know why there's this:

And why there's this:

But no mention of an Absinthe King V Elite with pinstripes in the specs?

[AdRock]

That is weird.

Thanks for all the info though. I plan on trying to get something started this weekend.

[nastynils]

Hey Elite Player. Are still out there?:-) I am new to the JCF Forum.
I own a King V, the one you were wondering about: Absinthe Frost with silver pinstripes. I totally love this guitar!!
My Serial Numer is #111109. Bought in 2014 in Germany.
I hope we can reanimate this thread a little. It would be cool to talk to some Elite-Friends. :-)
