DISC Dean Dave Mustaine V, Killing Is My Business Graphic

Full Description

V Series Body Shape

The Dean Dave Mustaine V Electric Guitar features an eye-catching custom 'Killing Is My Business' graphic, that will stand out on any stage. Inspired by Megadeth's debut studio album, the graphic comes from Mustaine's own 1985 sketches for a redesign of the album cover. Its V-shaped mahogany body provides a comfortable guitar that can be wielded all night long. This iconic body shape is ideal for soloists who require full access to the entire fingerboard. The overall design of the guitar depicts a Mustaine-inspired, killer appearance.

Custom Dave Mustaine D-Profile Neck

With a mahogany neck sculpted to Dave Mustaine's unique specification, the VMNT 'Killing Is My Business' guitar maintains the resonance and durability of thicker D shaped necks. This custom neck has a slightly thinner profile that offers smooth playability and easy access to the higher frets; Mustaine himself raves that this may be his favourite neck ever. The neck is coupled with a jatoba fingerboard that enhances the richness of the mahogany.

DMT Design Pickups

Featuring a pair of DMT Design humbucking pickups in the bridge and neck position, the Dave Mustaine KIMB delivers a powerful and punchy tone with plenty of bottom end and clear highs. The DMT Design humbuckers are perfect for a range of playing styles and music genres, and particularly excel when used for hard rock and metal play.
