Dean Kerry King V Signature Guitar Black Satin W/Case

Dean Guitars is honoured to present the Kerry King V Signature Guitar. Kerry King, Slayer’s founding guitarist, is one of the most instantly recognisable and revered musicians in the industry. Over the past 40-years his brutal dominating riffs wrote the history of Heavy Metal, making Kerry one of the most respected guitarists on the planet. The Dean Kerry King V Signature Guitar is the pinnacle of craftsmanship. Created as an all-new, unique Dean design, with a remarkable level of precision. A mahogany body with a 3-piece maple set-thru design with a Kerry King Spec. 24.75 scale length, and a C neck shape. 24 jumbo frets, Ebony Fingerboard and crossed Nail Inlays. The electronics feature the EMG 81 and 85 with PA2 Preamp Booster pickup at the bridge. Completing this iconic guitar is a Kahler Hybrid tremolo system!
