Yeah, EastonGuitars has a few, too. (..had?)

I am SO tempted by that ivory one. Don't think I'll like the short scale, though. And besides I'm trying to keep my wallet closed until NAMM, like a little kid with his legs crossed who's gotta pee! [img]graemlins/help.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Re: KV-2T\'s at DCGL...

Don`t be afraid of the Short Scale boys, it won`t hurt you [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] I am a huge fan of 24.75 scale guitars, and would love one of those Vs if I could afford one, I love the Natural mahogany one [img]graemlins/drool2.gif[/img] Jack.

Re: KV-2T\'s at DCGL...

I'm lost for words as to how much I like the bolted steel King V. And I'm surprised to see that I actually like the block-inlays and the headstock as well.

Re: KV-2T\'s at DCGL...

I really like the black one
Block inlays OWNS, the headstock i could do without and zebra pups is a Question mark

Not sure about the 24.75 scale, what's that like to play ? harder to bend or something? [img]graemlins/help.gif[/img]

Re: KV-2T\'s at DCGL...

Shorter scale is easier bends. I like short scale better actually, more of a punchy sound for rhythm playing.

Re: KV-2T\'s at DCGL...

24.75 is shorter...so the strings will be easier to bend and the frets will be closer together throughout the entire fretboard...but really only noticeable on the upper frets.

25" scale is probably the best IMO

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">And that's why I don't prefer short scale guitars. To each his own, but it's a "feel thing". When you get past the 12th fret or so, I can notice the difference. Not a huge deal or anything, but enough that I have a preference for 25.5s. ...Besides, I must have sausages for fingers or something. [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

I think I just figured out why something didn't look right to me with the KV2Ts: no V-plate. I'm so used to seeing them on sting-through RRs that - to my eyes - it seems like something's missing from the body. To me, through the years it's almost like it's a Jackson standard for ST Vs. Adding one would be a visual improvement, IMHO.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Without going into specifics of price, I will tell you that Jason at DCGL took a small deposit from me on my CC then I mailed him money orders for the rest over a couple month period. Talk to him on the phone, he was cool with me, and I got the WR1 I had been wanting. [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

Re: KV-2T\'s at DCGL...

Those are sweet. Painted bevels on those like the KV2 would be extra dope.
