Electric guitar Jackson JS Series King V JS22-7 KV HT (Satin Black)

Electric guitar Jackson JS Series King V JS22-7 KV HT (Satin Black) is a powerful 7-string instrument with a legendary V-shaped shape. This shape provides perfect balance when playing standing (on a strap) and maximum access to the frets due to the absence of a body in the neck area. The guitar is aimed at fans of heavy metal and other genres of heavy music.

The guitar has a poplar top — a wood that resonates well and creates a dense, focused tone. At the same time, the body is finished with a matte satin finish. This coating gives the guitar a strict, modern and «metal» look.

The bolt-on maple neck has graphite rod reinforcement and a scarf joint (Scarf Joint) to increase the strength of the structure, which is vital for 7-string guitar necks that are under high tension.

The fingerboard is made of amaranth. Its radius is from 12 inches near the nut (more rounded) to 16 inches closer to the body (flatter). This feature makes the neck as convenient as possible for riffs, fast solos and chords. The neck has 24 Jumbo frets with piranha tooth inlays.

The scale length of the guitar is 26.5 inches. This is an elongated scale, which is almost standard for 7-string guitars. It provides the necessary tension for the 7th (low C) string and ensures that the string will sound clear and articulate, without blurring the tone, even in Drop tunings.

The model has two Jackson High-Output 7-String Humbucking pickups. These humbuckers are adapted to work with the low frequencies of a 7-string guitar. They provide high output, tight, «fat» gain without excessive muddy and clear articulation, which is necessary for modern varieties of metal. Sound control includes a 3-way switch, volume and tone controls.

The guitar uses a fixed 7-string bridge, where the strings pass through the body. This provides maximum vibration transfer to the wood, which guarantees excellent sustain. At the same time, the bridge holds the tune even at its lowest settings.
