      I have an older KVX10 (string thru) and thought about switching the necks with my DKMG but never considered the neck angle

      So I guess I could look for a neck from a DKMGT, DXMGT, DK2T, .....wait...how about a neck from a DK2MT........

        Woah, I totally forgot about the DK2T... now THAT would make a nice neck for a King V body!

          Does the neck angle really matter with bolt ons? The necks are all the same, no? The angle is handled by the way the neck pocket is cut. I have a neck from a charvel 375 (recessed trem)on my model 3 body ( non recessed) without any issues. I dont think you will need shims or anything. You will just have a floyd nut and no trem, big deal.

            Wait, you may be on to something...

            BTW I've heard of shims, but I don't know exactly what it is... I just know I don't have any.

              I also had a Jackson professional neck with a floyd nut on a concept rhoads string-through body and it bolted up and worked fine. I think the necks are all the same. I think you can see the angle of the pocket if you look at your string through guitar's neck heel.
