USA Jackson Custom shop King V Doubleneck

[Doubleneck King V]

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Howdy-New member here
I just bought a New USA Jackson Custom Shop Doubleneck King V from Guitar Asylum on tuesday-and have been playing it ever since.Its outfitted with Brazilian Rosewood necks on a chambered Mahogany Body with a quilted top stained in aqua/purple.12/6 string with Duncan JBs in both necks(one hum per neck only) and all gold hardware.
Pictures of the guitar being built are on the Jackson Custom shop archives at jacksonguitarsonline.com and at the Guitar Asylum website.
I own 11 other King Vs but this one is the sickest and will definitely get the most gig time and attention.
Great site here....I oook forward to posting.

Oh....I'm new with a digital camera(just bought a SonyCybershotDSC S600 today)-and any advice or help w/posting pics would be very appreciated.
I'll post the new axe here with shots of it in my studio with some gear asa soon as I load the software and try to decipher the manual enough to snap some pics.

Hey dude,

Just wanna know, what posessed you to do this custom shop? A double neck V isn't something you see everyday, and even that color is great. Don't get me wrong, I love it, but just curious. Oh yah, post pics of the case too, I can only imagine how big that thing is

Nice one...and there is a picture posting tutorial in the FAQ if it helps

[IrfaanSE801]

Dude, I swear I was gonna do the same thing, but he said it was one hum per neck and I wasen't sure after that. But that thing is unique, so that might be it.

oops now that you mention it he said all gold hardware too. Lets see if I can delete that post
.....nope but got the pic out

[IrfaanSE801]

Nah, it's nice to look at

Welcome Double V!

We demand pics! Oh, and welcome!

Cool guitars, welcome to the site!

[neilli]

Welcome and we definitely need pics!

As for showing pics, NOTP's tutorial is the best place to start, but basically you need to register with a photo-hosting site (eg photobucket), upload your pics, copy the url, hit the 'Insert Image' button in the JCF editor and paste in the URL - make sense?

Thanx to all here for the *POSITIVE* feedback and welcomes!
I WILL definitely upload the pics and take the photo tutorial from the postings that all you dudes suggested.I thank you for the help and I'll try to get em done today(we are putting on a Guitar Show in NYC on June 24th & 25 this summer-so i'm busy with all that necessary dealer contacting,faxing etc....)but pics will be fast coming.

Yeah the single hums per neck and one volume knob are a utilitarian factor for me since all I need is a Vol. and no tone controls-and with varying degrees of palm muting and pick attack i can manipulate the brightness of notes-so no tone knob is needed .The case is Huge indeed,but the guitar is light due to the hollow chambered mahogany body-and LOUD even unplugged(resonates real well).The gold hardware is nice too-and the bridges are all Brass(like on early RR s w/low serial numbers).
Didn't know if you dudes noticed(up close pics will show it.....)Its a 22 fret neck on each side-not the usual 24 like my single neck King Vs.
Thanx again for the nice welcome and pic posting advice.
