Jackson Phil Demmel Pro Series Demmelition Red Tide Fade

General

The Jackson Pro Demmelition is built for metal. The signature instrument of Machine Head guitarist, Phil Demmel exudes both power and quality. Since a standard King V was not rough enough for Demmel, two extra menacing points have been added to the body that combine with the neck and hardware for a clean tone and high playing comfort. The Demmelition comes with thicker strings as standard, so it's immediately primed for Drop C Machine Head riffs. This unique and aggressive V-shaped, red-black-fade finished guitar stands for pure metal.

Pro Series Demmelition: High-Grade Hardware

Machine Head albums such as 'The Blacking' and 'Bloodstone & Diamonds' boast an incredible sound, largely shaped by the Jackson models used by Phil Demmel. The alder body of the Demmelition provides a powerful, balanced tone, with heaps of midrange and clarity. Two active EMG elements ensure crystal clear cleans and thick distortion, making this V-shaped monster surprisingly versatile. The neck-thru construction with compound radius and ebony fingerboard ensures high playing comfort and improves access to the higher frets. Tuning stability is guaranteed by the double locking Floyd Rose.

Jackson Guitars

The renowned American brand, Jackson Guitars was founded in 1980 by Grover Jackson and first found fame after the release of the V-guitar for Randy Rhoads. Many famous guitarists now choose Jackson models because of their elegant design, sharp head, sharkfin position markers and potent sound. The Pro Series largely follows the specifications of the handmade USA Series - but comes at a more affordable price.
