Jackson KV with serial number U1

[RTengs]

Go this new Jackson KV with gold hardware, can't find that model anywhere ?

But also strange is that the serialnumber starts with U1 (U15889)

Her are som pictures of the guitar. (I'm about to clean it up and put some new strings on)

Seems like a KV2 that someone put gold hardware on. And the serial is not strange. Welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the forum! You also won't find any KV2s with stock Seymour Duncan Black Winter pickups like the ones in your guitar either, so it's not difficult to imagine the guitar has had a few mods and swaps (including the gold hardware).

Welcome to the forum. I am not an expert but, that's a KV2 modded with a Gold Floyd Rose, Some kind of gold tuners, and Duncan Black Winters. I wonder why didn't he go ahead and replace the knobs as well. Cool guitar, how does it play? Personally, I don't enjoy that button shape with a KV, to be honest.

Should be a 2005. U1586x was Aug. '05.

I agree with Mudlark, August 2005 looks correct based on my log.
