The B.C. Rich Kerry King V features a hard Canadian maple bolt on neck, a beveled top basswood body, a rosewood fretboard with 24 jumbo frets and a KKV inlay at the 12th fret, and 2 BDSM humbucker pickups. A Kahler Tremolo and B.C. Rich BDSM pickups highlight this nicely equipped bolt on V.

Bolt-on Construction
The Kerry King V Electric Guitar uses a classic Bolt-on construction. The maple neck is bolted on with 4 screws to the body. This construction offers some added flexibility in the instruments adjustment and provides the option to change the neck in the future.

B.C. Rich BDSM Pickups
B.C. Rich designed their BDSM humbucking pickups to provide a solid sound and to be durable while delivering high output. BDSM stands for Broad Dynamic Sonically Matched. That simply means the pickup is designed to reproduce a wide range of frequencies accurately (broad dynamic). Then they are tested and matched in pairs (neck and bridge) by their inherent individual and signature tonal and output characteristics to give a solidly balanced tone (sonically matched).

Beveled Top
The Kerry King V Electric Guitar employs a beveled edge around the shape. In many ways, bevels on a top are similar to facets on a cut stone. They catch the light and reflect at different angles giving the instrument more of a three dimensional look.

A killer V that won't slay your bank account. Order today.

The best bc rich I've played

The KKV is the most wicked guitar I've ever played. It makes playing addictive again for me, because you can move around the neck so easily. The tone on all aspects are insane.B.C Rich has a customer for life. If your looking don't let this one pass you by. Be the envy of your peers, shredding on the mid-priced verion of the heavy metal master Kerry King's guitar.

Perfect for metal
Posted by PFC Piazza from Melbourne, Fl. on Jun 23, 2009

Reviewer's Background: Intermediate musician
Reviewer's Play Style: Classic Rock to Heavy Metal
This guitar is perfect for any musician wishing to play metal. The pickups get great sound, pinch harmonics are a pinch, the 24 jumbo frets allow for ultimate shredding, and the Kahler bridge just makes it all the better. However it is singularly focused, with Kerry King's signature Tribal design and body shape, but all in all, a perfect metal musician's instrument of destruction.

The good thing about a B.C Rich is that even before you buy, you know your going to be getting a guitar that is of outstanding quality! And concidering that all have jumbo frets you'll be able to play all those solos that require all 24 like those of kirk hammet. It's a definate buy.

AWSOME!

Man oh man, this guitar rules. I am in a death-thrash metal band. This guitar rules for everything I play. The tribal graphics and spider headstock just makes this thing one scary demon rocking guitar. This was my first guitar with a kahler tremolo. I have always used floyds but this thing is even better. It still allows me to squeals and dive bombing. Get this guitar, it is perfect.
