Full Description
The Jackson Custom Shop King V 1H TOM is a purpose-built metal machine, designed for players who demand nothing less than elite tone, playability, and style. Handcrafted in the legendary Jackson Custom Shop, this King V boasts a fierce and fast-playing Speed Neck profile carved from quartersawn maple, paired with a dark, select-grade ebony fretboard loaded with jumbo stainless steel frets and signature black sharkfin inlays. Its 25.5" scale and neck-thru construction offer unmatched access and sustain, while the matte black alder body radiates sinister simplicity.
The electronics are minimal by design—just a single DiMarzio X2N humbucker, perfectly positioned for maximum aggression, routed directly to a 500k volume pot for instant, raw response. A black Tune-O-Matic bridge with string-thru-body setup ensures spot-on intonation and sustain, while Gotoh tuners and a Black TUSQ nut round out a high-performance, no-frills setup that’s built to destroy.
With stealthy Luminlay side dots, a reverse pointy headstock, and the 2024-style gloss Jackson logo on satin, this King V is both modern and menacing. Whether it’s stage, studio, or spotlight—this custom shop weapon is locked, loaded, and ready to annihilate.
Condition: This is a brand new Jackson Custom Shop King V, meticulously hand-built in the USA to the highest standards. It includes the official Jackson Custom Shop Certificate of Authenticity, a form-fit hardshell case, and our Pro-Tech setup. Drop Dee Guitars is an authorized Jackson Custom Shop dealer.
Pro-Tech Setup: Every guitar receives our custom Pro-Tech setup to ensure it arrives playing its absolute best:
- Truss rod adjustment for precise neck relief
- Nut slot filing for optimal tuning stability
- Bridge setup for accurate intonation and resonance
- String action set for speed and comfort
- Pickup height and electronics test for optimal output and clarity
With this setup, your JCS King V guitar is performance-ready straight out of the case.

I must say, I've had enough of mass sellers like SweetWater with their extra fees for everything that should be included as part of a guitar sale. Drop Dee Guitars exceeded my expectations by far with my order, ensuring that my instrument was a joy to play straight out of the box. I eagerly anticipate future business with this store. They are truly a shining star! Excellent communication throughout the pre-sale and after-sale as well. Thank you!
