A founding member of thrash metal giants Anthrax, Scott Ian has delivered punishing riffs and electrifying solos for decades. His signature Jackson X Series King V KVXT captures his aggressive tone and high-performance playability in a bold, battle-ready design.
Built for speed and precision, this axe features a mahogany body and a through-body maple neck reinforced with graphite for superior stability. The 12"-16" compound radius bound fingerboard allows for effortless chording near the nut and ultra-smooth soloing in the upper register. Its 22 jumbo frets and pearloid block inlays enhance both playability and aesthetic appeal.
Fuelled by a pair of Jackson high-output humbucking pickups, the KVXT delivers searing leads, tight rhythms, and bone-crushing sustain. The intuitive control layout includes a three-way toggle switch and single volume and tone controls for straightforward sound shaping. The Jackson compensated and adjustable TOM-style bridge with anchored tailpiece ensures rock-solid tuning and intonation, while the Jackson sealed die-cast tuners provide enhanced tuning stability.
Now available in a menacing Gloss Black finish with a three-ply black pickguard, gold hardware, gold speed knobs, and a sleek Jackson pointed 6-in-line headstock, the Scott Ian King V KVXT is an all-out metal machine.
