Key Features
The Jackson Wes Borland Signature King V is built for players who demand uncompromising power, stage presence and precision. Inspired by the unmistakable style of Limp Bizkit’s powerhouse guitarist, this model captures the aggressive tone and visual impact that helped define modern nu-metal guitar. Its striking King V body shape and reverse Jackson headstock create an unmistakable silhouette, while the streamlined single-pickup layout keeps the focus firmly on raw, high-output performance.
At its core is a Seymour Duncan Invader bridge pickup, delivering massive low-end punch and cutting clarity designed to dominate high-gain tones. The one-piece maple neck-through construction with graphite reinforcement ensures exceptional sustain and stability, while the compound radius ebony fingerboard with 24 jumbo frets supports fast technical playing and expressive lead work. A Floyd Rose 1500 double-locking tremolo system keeps tuning stable even through aggressive dive bombs, making this King V a formidable instrument for players who push their gear as hard as their music.

This signature King V reflects the aggressive sonic identity of Wes Borland, guitarist for the influential nu-metal band Limp Bizkit. Known for combining crushing riffs with experimental tones and theatrical stage presence, Borland helped redefine modern heavy guitar playing. This instrument captures that spirit through a stripped-back control layout, powerful pickup configuration and bold visual design. Built to withstand demanding performances, the guitar delivers the same uncompromising intensity that defines Borland’s playing style.
The guitar is equipped with a Seymour Duncan Invader SH-8 bridge pickup, a high-output ceramic humbucker known for its massive low-end response and aggressive attack. Designed to thrive under heavy distortion, the Invader maintains clarity and definition even at extreme gain levels. Its powerful voicing helps riffs cut through dense mixes while retaining articulation for lead work, making it an ideal choice for modern metal and hard rock players seeking maximum impact.
A one-piece maple neck-through construction forms the structural core of the guitar, allowing vibration to transfer efficiently throughout the instrument for enhanced sustain and tonal consistency. Graphite reinforcement rods increase neck stability and help resist environmental changes during touring or intense performance conditions. The ebony fingerboard with a 12"–16" compound radius transitions smoothly from comfortable chord work near the nut to faster lead playing higher up the neck.
The King V is equipped with hardware designed to withstand demanding stage use. A recessed Floyd Rose 1500 double-locking tremolo system enables dramatic pitch effects while maintaining reliable tuning stability. Jackson sealed die-cast tuners and a locking nut work together to keep strings firmly in place, even during aggressive playing. Luminlay side dots glow under stage lighting, ensuring clear visibility of the fretboard during low-light performances.
