That's what I kinda figured. That matte satin finish is so cool! Play the crap out of that thing.

It's strange toejam but I feel beat up, like I've been exerting myself. The damn fretboard is fast and the tone comes off so nice I actually feel a buzz when playing it. I can't believe the people at Jackson were going to trash this guitar. Whoever was going to do that needs to be dragged outside and sprayed with a fire hose because that is pure madness. Right now I just have the KV2 going to tuner and amp, no pedals, no FX, and the notes are tight and punchy. The V sounds so good it's criminal, all the crunchy chunk chunk metal you can ask for and the action is lower than snake shit. I'm afraid if I hook up my Maxon OD 820, my AD10 Delay, or GE601 I may never come back.

I better take things slow before I hurt myself.

The dog was like "Cmon man, throw the stick!"

Grats on a nice guitar. It would have been cool if it had the sharkfin outline inlays to match the logo.

Like MetalDaze new guitar? Those inlays would have been perfect.

That's tight!

Reverse inlays and HS is a plus.
