KV 2 Input please.

[Brooke]

Does anyone have any opinions of the new 2007 USA king V's

Are they good guitars? Is the neck as nice as older models?

Are the new Fender Produced jacksons the same as the Jacksons from 2005 downward?

[shreddermon]

Yes, yes and yes.

[Bengal65]

Yes, yes and yes.

Ditto!

[Brooke]

Yes, yes and yes.

LOL

The only difference I can think of to me is cosmetic. Sometime ago the headstock logo was changed from printed style to pearl inlay or (Abalone on Custom Shop requests). Which in my opinion was an inprovement.

That change happened many years ago, well before the FMIC buyout.

Also, when you say "older", if you go as far back as the 80's, there are major differences. Poplar, kahlers, Jackson pickups, fingerboard radius, etc. But....good luck finding one of those!

I'm pretty sure mine is an 07 model and its the best damn guitar i've ever owned

[petez0r]

mines an '06, honestly dont know if theres a difference between '06 and '07. if there isnt, then go to your your local shop and give them any amount they want for it because it will be the best guitar you will ever own.

There's a gunmetal silver one at my local guitar store...

I'm thinking that boxing day is a good day to attack it.

My KV2 is the best Jackson I've owned. And thats saying something.

The 2007 KV2 I just picked up has finish issues on the front of the headstock similar to the problems we saw on some of the new Charvel pointies. All along under the logo where the black face and binding meet up. It is hard to tell if it is those tiny bubbles in the clear or finish lifting.

Other than that, it is a great guitar. Plays, sounds, looks great.

really

I had the same problem with a 1994 Soloist that I just soled. the area under the headstock between the bindings and the jackson logo was "ever so slightly" beginning to lift. YOu could only tell if you touched it very carefully.

Is your's peeling off,,or does it just have a few air bubbles, because the head stock on newer jaclsons has quite a thick layer of clear coat. It's possible that a few air bubbles got trapped inside.

I would love to try one out, but the only KVs anybody stocks by me are the shitty JS30 series Jacksons.
