The Jackson Phil Demmel Demmelition King V


The Jackson Phil Demmel Demmelition King V is a lot like any standard King V, but it has custom cutaways on the bottom side, courtesy of the taste of the one who inspired it, Phil Demmel himself. The Demmelition marks the first time in a long time that Jackson has had a signature series for the King V model electric guitar, but it was well worth the wait! The custom cutouts on the Demmelition make it even more hardcore than you could imagine. It has a sort of razor-sharp look to it that no other guitar can compare with, which is exactly why Phil Demmel chooses to play the Jackson King V when he performs live.

If you are thinking of buying a new guitar, but are wondering what to get, consider this. Do you like metal/hard rock music? Do you like guitars with some flash to them? Do you like to turn heads when you turn up the volume knob? If so, then you NEED to take note of the Phil Demmel signature Demmelition King V right now! Why? Because this is an axe with an attitude! Seriously, it looks like something knights would have used in the medieval world to slay dragons with. How cool would it be to play it on stage!

But all kidding aside, the Jackson signature model of the King V boasts the same specs as most other King Vs but with a few extras to make the deal even sweeter. On the PDX model (which is the lower end model, built to be a more affordable substitute for the higher-end version), you get:

  • A bolt on body
  • Sturdy rock maple neck
  • Compound radius rosewood fingerboard
  • 24 jumbo frets
  • Inlays in a sharkfin design
  • EMG-HZ pickups
  • A Floyd Rose tremolo
  • Alder body
  • Die cast Jackson tuning pegs
  • 25.5 scale length

Jackson Demmelition
Needless to say, the Demmelition is a guitar that is built to play. Why else would the famous Machine head guitar player play it? There are other models of the Demmelition available, but if you want the real deal, then go with the signature series, inspired by Phil Demmel of Machine Head. If he inspired it, then you know that it must rockboth in sound and in looks.

And if you are worried about the reliability of a Jackson, don’t be. Jackson guitars have always been made to be owned by the working, playing, gigging, or even touring musician. Whether you log several practice hours per day or several thousand miles on the road every month, a Jackson is the way to go. Why? Well, it delivers a superior tone and outstanding quality at a price that you can afford. Besides, they look awesome! Nobody knows metal guitar work like the guys at Jackson.

If you need something that is a little more than ordinary, think about getting a Jackson for your guitar collection today. The Phil Demmel signature model is the perfect choice for anyone looking for an amazing tone at an incredible price.
