Jackson KV1 Mustaine

[SlasZ]

Mustaine sig rubbed off?

And as always... put it on eBay, $1 opening bid and no reserve. The highest bidder will definitely bite.

Don't forget the $1 BIN!

2000$???
BTW Floyd makes it a KV2.

I kind of agree with this, the only real difference between the KV2 and the KV1 is that the KV1 has a fixed bridge.

So basically this guitar is worth allot of money from a collectors perspective I guess (because of the signature on the headstock).

correct?

[Axewielder]

This guy thinks he has a KV1/KV2. I told him it was the Japanese King V Pro, and he told me I was "totally wrong" and should "put on my glasses and look at it". Somebody please message him.

Hopefully the market will show him that he has a Japanese made Pro, not a US series KV1. He'll be mighty surprised when he gets no bids at $1200.

I Kinda think that because it has 1 humbucker is what makes it a KV1 and 2 hums makes a KV2.....
I beleive thats the definitions to Jacksons model numbers...

Hence, SL1 = 1 Hum
SL2 = 2 hums

But then the WR1 and RR1 is a throw off...

He's wrong on every single one of his points!!

1. The Pro line was MIJ.
2. Lots of Jap models have sharkies
3. Lots of Jap models are neck-thru
4. Only a few Jap models were Student models; most were Pro.
5. He paid way too much!
6. Serial #s are stamped on the fretboard for neck-thru, and stamped on the neckplate for bolt-on. I don't know of any company that has serial #s on stickers.

What a tard. She sent me the same thing.

There are a few. I have a 1994 KE3 MIJ, no neck plate. The serial is on a sticker on the back of the headstock, but this is an exception.

edit: Before anyone points out that I'm full of shit, it's 1996. Sorry

Yes, indeed, there are some exceptions. There were some neck-thru Model series Charvels that had stickers with serial numbers on the headstocks. My old bolt-on Kelly XLR didn't have a neck plate either, but I believe the number was stamped on the board.

The 86 Model 6 (maybe 5 too) were neck-thru with stickers. My 93 Kelly Pro STD also has no neck plate and has a sticker on the back of the headstock. This guy is either a con man or got taken and trying to lie his way to cover his losses.

No man, the KV1 has 2 hums. KV1 had a fixed Kahler, but I believe there were a few special runs made with Floyds. KV2s all have Floyds.

[emperor_black]

Also, do USA models have a 'J' in front of the serial numbers? That should tell him that its Japanese and not made in USA. I remember my SLSMG used to have a J in the front but my SL2HT's had a U in the front.
