smoothe bro, smoothe.. fast neck, action is just perfect, very good playability, surprisingly light weight, pareho lang halos ng Jackson Warrior ko. I dont mind the single EMG 81 pickup config, i dont need a neck pickup anyway, swak na swak sa tugtugan ko. in your face metal guitar! :mrgreen:

Just sold my Jackson King V JS32T to my bandmate, so I have updated my gears.

Dean VMNT


Jackson Stars King V J2EK


Here is the entire family


Just read from somewhere (not in Philmusic) that na-uto daw ako ng PULP for paying that much just to have a few seconds photo op and autograph with Megadeth. The statement came from a non-guitar player if I am not mistaken. A guitar signed by Megadeth themselves that comes with a video and photo to prove its authenticity, is worth more than what I have paid for PULP. Anlakas manlait ng taong yun but oh well, I'll just shrug them off my shoulders, peace be with him.

hi!

to answer your question, it worked well onstage, only that i lacked a footswitch to control the amp sim.  :-D

luckily, that night, we had to play full on hard rock, and i didn't have to switch channels.  ^-^

it kinda went well with the V, i gotta say. memorable gig, that night.

and here's a shot of my beloved Elisse in my bedroom...

added the black pickup ring on the bridge, and replaced the gold tophats with gold speed knobs (they have since been re-replaced again by, you guessed it, tophats.  :-D) the puprings gave it a better look, and overall feel, at least for me.

added two more strap buttons on the upper wing to let me balance the guitar a bit better. i felt that the further away from the center the button is, the heavier the head becomes.

never mind that large Coca-Cola bottle, and the ash tray.  :-D

V is best played on a chair na walang parang railings ng braso sa gilid, preferably a round chair, tapos medyo mababa, kasi kapag sobrang taas ng chair you'll end up needing to raise your left foot to balance the V guitar.

Musta mga V bros? Ganda po ng baby nyo Sir ZeroForceXXVII

Hello. Here is my V-type axe. Its an Ibanez V-Blade VBT-700 which was released sometime in 2007. Im not really into elaborate guitars but Ive always felt Ibanez had a certain "gift" in designing good-looking, modern, radical but not so-exaggerated guitars at a fairly good price. I like the way it was designed particularly its signature 'tails'. It sports a sturdy Gibraltar bridge and a DiMarzio D'Activator set. (PUs had been replaced recently.)


The V-Blade and the V-Twin. ;)
