I'm pretty sure the body was poplar, maple neck through. Thought the KV-MF had dual hums, if so it was a TB-5 Duncan Custom and an SH2N Duncan Jazz. 1996

Are all 150 KV-MF made in the same year???
and some sellers said it was TB4 and SH5. I'm so confused
Well the run began in later 1996, I had KE MF 059 and it was from November of that year, so it's possible some went into early 1997. The "TB" is Duncan's designation for trembucker, or F spaced pickup as used with a tremolo like a Floyd. The SH is normal spacing. The Mustaine King V (unlike the Friedman Kelly) had two Duncans, I thought the bridge was a TB-5 (Duncan Custom) but it might have been a TB-4. The Friedman Kelly certainly was a TB-4, and the poles were gold too.

Oh so KV "MF" stands for "Musicians Friend" I think its "Marty Friedman" before I read this forum :ROTF:
Any know what stands for DM? My friend have a King V with serial number: DMxxxx
Thanks
Um... Dave Mustaine? I thought that's what is was on the Pro Mustaine sig guitars back in the early 90's. The later KV-1 Mustaine sigs had regular U serial numbers.
