Jackson King V Pro Mustaine

Yeah I know - this is not a USA made guitar. So what is it doing here? I wanted
to add this guitar here cause it's one of my dream guitars. I've wanted one like
this ever since I saw Megadeth in Nummirock 1997 and Dave started the gig with
a cherry sunburst King V Pro. This guitar will always remind me of those great times!

What makes this guitar more special is that it has been hand signed by Dave Mustaine
during the Cryptic Writings studio sessions. Below is a picture of this guitar in the hands
of Dave and the original owner Eric. I bought this guitar from Eric's Ebay auction and
I was amazed by the quality. King V Pro was introduced in 1993 and discontinued in 1995 when
US made KV1 became the Mustaine signature model. I have owned two KV1s and this guitar is built
with same overall quality and identical hardware. King V Pro was first available in black and
silver sparkle finishes. In 1994 the cherry sunburst finish option was added which was a 100usd
upcharge. Below pics from Nummirock, D'Addario ad, signing and Guitar School mag.

Thanks Eric!!!
