  • Where can I find a used Mustaine King V....

    It must have the arrow headstock and the floyd rose. I have seen a few with the stop tailpiece, but none with the floyd. Please let me know.

    The only Mustaine model with an arrow-shaped headstock was the last one, which was not a King V but a Gibson V shape and did not come with a trem., IIRC. If you're referring to the pointy V-shaped King V's, they all had the typical Jackson headstock you see at the top of the forums. There was a special Musician's Friend version that was only available in black with gold hardware and had a trem. Could that be what you're thinking of?

      Actually, that isn't true. I have 2 video's the latest being the dvd from the Megadeth greatest hits with Mustaine playing 2 different black Jackson king v's with rounded points on the v and an arrow headstock. I have also seen one on EBAY for sale, but it had a stop tailpiece and I need a floyd. I appreciate the input though, but I know I'm right on this one.

        That model is called Y2KV, it doesn't have a tailpiece, it only comes with string-thru. The Floyded ones are Mustaine's personal guitars so you are SOL.

          Yep... beat me to it. All pointy = King V/KV1/KV2. Rounded with the arrow-shaped headstock = Y2KV and wasn't made with a Floyd. Keep in mind that Dave could get anything he wanted from Jackson, so what you see him play isn't always available as a production model exactly as it appears in the video.

                            yeah, Y2kvs with tremolo is strictly custom shop and they do not build production Y2kvs anymore (even custom shop too)

                            unless you want to spend a ridiculous amount, they are available here in Tokyo (Dave's actual one)

                            Not recommended

                              I think they actually still has one for sale too.
