Jackson X-Series Signature Scott Ian King V KVXT, Black

The Jackson X-Series Signature Scott Ian King V™ KVXT is a dedicated signature electric guitar designed in collaboration with Scott Ian, co-founding guitarist of New York thrash metal institution Anthrax. Built around a classic King V™ body shape in mahogany with a gloss black finish and three-ply black pickguard, this instrument is well suited to heavy rock and metal players seeking a professional spec guitar at an accessible price point. Gold hardware throughout gives the instrument a distinctive visual contrast against the all-black aesthetic.

The KVXT features a one-piece through-body maple neck with graphite reinforcement and a scarf joint for added rigidity and stability. The 12"–16" compound radius laurel or rosewood fingerboard spans 22 jumbo frets and is adorned with pearloid block inlays, with white neck and headstock binding adding a refined finish detail. The guitar is powered by a pair of Jackson® high-output humbucking pickups in a standard HH configuration, controlled via a three-way toggle switch with single volume and tone controls. A Jackson® TOM-style adjustable bridge with anchored tailpiece provides reliable intonation and solid sustain, while Jackson® sealed die-cast tuners and a pointed 6-in-line headstock complete the classic Jackson profile. The 24.75" scale length contributes to a slightly warmer tone and comfortable playing feel.

24.75" SCALE LENGTH
With a 24.75" scale length, your guitar offers a smoother, more comfortable playing experience, especially for bending notes and fast lead work. The shorter scale results in slightly lower tension on the strings, making it easier to press down and play. This scale length also contributes to a warmer, fuller tone, with enhanced resonance in the lower end. Perfect for players seeking a more relaxed feel and rich, dynamic sound.

TOM STYLE BRIDGE WITH ANCHORED TAIL PIECE
A Tune-O-Matic bridge with an anchored tailpiece offers improved sustain and stability by securely locking the strings in place. This setup enhances tonal clarity and resonance, providing a more solid connection between the strings and body. The anchored tailpiece minimizes unwanted vibrations, resulting in better tuning stability and a more consistent playing experience. Ideal for players seeking maximum sustain and precise string alignment.
