The Best V Guitar Of All Time.

[DrakkarTyrannis]

But the headstock on that is atrocious though. Just my opinion of course!

Truth. Dumb round sock looking headstocks have no place on a point bodied guitar.

I love those industrial tuning knobs. I rarely ever see them

Yeah LSR bit the dust a long time ago.

nearest to those is Hipshot right? -

one of my favorites brought back to life by one of my favorite youtubers

The LSRs function different—those are just replacement keys basically. They do give a similar look though. So "nearest" in look? Probably. Much different though otherwise.

This headstock gives me headache.
So weird like something’s wrong !!

Wes Borland bought a Custom Shop left handed V by accident. The buyer fell through and he got it stupidly cheap. The Jackson logo was upside down and the electronics cavity was already done FFS lol

Here's the video of Borland talking about his one off left handed Jackson V.

/\ not sure if like. Though I do prefer smaller V shapes...that, to me seems even smaller?

You like small V's eh?

 

[DrakkarTyrannis]

Holy crap was not expecting those vocals. I thought it was some progressive instrumental stuff lol.

Am I wrong in thinking this is closer to the SV/RR/lawsuit shape than previously offered in the US?

If so, does this mean we'll actually be able to get proper SVs in the E-II/LTD range now? I've always hated the extended horn they would use on the Alexi models here.

I think the Jackson RR is the perfect shape of a V, or even the dean V, minus the headstock.

The king Vs, and other random variations, to me, seem goofy. Or maybe they look goofy on me and my frame at 5'11 and 170lbs.

Like the video above is of a bigger guy, which would suit a bigger v. He went with a micro RR type thing and it looks really out of place

The bigger the better, which is why I like MLs. When my guitarist tries to play mine it looks fucking hilarious because it's the same size he is.

I shall insist. The best V of all time is the Double Rhoads:

Dude! I didn't even know that existed! Its like my dream V shape configuration without having to go JCS. (apart from the red)

• King V type shape - ✓
• Reversed Jackson headstock - ✓
  
• NO pickup rings - ✓
• FR - ✓

Thanks for sharing that.
