Jackson JS32 King V AH Black with White Bevels — Metal-Ready V at an Accessible Price

This model is one of the most affordable entry points into the King V lineup from Jackson, designed for players who want the regal V-style silhouette and aggressive tone without stepping into the Pro Series price bracket. Built around a poplar body and a bolt-on maple speed neck, the instrument delivers the fast feel Jackson is known for, paired with hardware that survives aggressive playing. The Black with White Bevels colorway gives the angular body a high-contrast stage look.

Standout Features That Set This V Apart

Jackson pioneered the compound radius fingerboard, and this instrument carries the 12"-16" design — rounder at the nut for comfortable chording, flatter toward the heel for bending and high-fret soloing. The licensed Floyd Rose double-locking tremolo locks the strings at both the nut and the bridge, so dive bombs and pull-ups return to pitch reliably, while dual Jackson high-output humbucking pickups with ceramic magnets push the amp into thick, saturated territory.

Body and Construction — Lightweight and Stage-Ready

Poplar keeps the guitar light enough for long sets, while the gloss Black with White Bevels finish gives the V-shape a sharp visual edge.

• Poplar is lighter than mahogany, which makes the guitar easier on the shoulder during long gigs.
• Body Finish: Gloss — high-shine Black with White Bevels colorway
• King V body shape — the angular V silhouette Jackson built its reputation on, with no pickguard to interrupt the lines

Neck and Fingerboard — Built for Speed

Maple forms the speed neck profile that mirrors what Jackson uses on its higher-tier models, so players stepping up later find a familiar feel.

• Scale Length: 648 mm (25.5") — standard long scale for tight low-end and crisp attack
• Fingerboard Radius: 305–406 mm (12"-16" compound) — comfortable chording at the nut, easy bending near the heel
• Number of Frets: 24 jumbo — two full octaves plus extra room for high-register lead work
• Nut Width sits at 42.86 mm (1.6875") — wide enough for confident riffing without feeling bulky

Pickups and Electronics — Hot Output for Heavy Tones

HH configuration pairs two Jackson high-output humbuckers with ceramic magnets, voiced for thick rhythm tones and articulate lead work.

• Pickup Configuration: HH — dual Jackson high-output humbucking pickups
• Controls: Volume, Tone — simple layout for fast onstage adjustments
• 3-way toggle switching — covers bridge, both pickups, and neck pickup positions

Who Is the JS32 King V AH For

The Jackson JS32 King V AH Black with White Bevels is the right choice for metal and hard rock players who want the iconic V-style shape and aggressive tone at a beginner-to-intermediate price point. Beginners moving past their first guitar will appreciate the licensed Floyd Rose tremolo for dive bombs and the 24-fret neck for soloing, while intermediate players get a stage-ready instrument that handles drop tunings without complaint. Players drawn to the angular V-style silhouette get a stage-ready look at a fraction of the cost of Jackson's Pro Series models.
