True beast

Mahpgany body, SD distortions, FR1000, neck thru construction. It can be a good companion at home, studio or stage. However there might be qc issues about cosmetics.

Pure Blood MIJ

One of the high-end products of Cushin Gakki Japan Factory. It feels lighter than a KV2 or a similar segment version, KVMG Pro. Besides the rosewood fretboard and binding, there's nothing different from than mentioned models. I won't write about specs, simply that it has a premium feel.

You can't go wrong with this.

Total USA Killer

It's a rare example of the mighty Professional Pro series of the Cushin Gakki factory. As a KV2 owner, I can easily say there's no difference about the details like inlays, frets, binding, etc. Also, the neck is a bit thinner while both my KV2, KVMG Pro, KVXT, and Js32T India got nearly the same neck profile.

I own a 1994 model with a J80 as a bridge pickup but the previous productions have a J90 which is a rare pickup. Its sound is a bit more crisp and punchy while the KV2 (SD-JB on the bridge) has a little bit much low-end and body. Probably it's because of the Poplar body instead of Alder like KV2

The fixed Kahler is marvelous if you don't like the use whammy that much yet you like the Floyd rose because of the hand placement.

If you find one under 2000 USD, just go for it instead of buying a brand new MJ because those are not Cushin Gakki.

Size doesn't matter!

Even with a little touch, your rig will roar like hell. It's really transparent which is better for digital profilers with power amp simulation. Cheap, small, and just doing its job.

The most reliable strap I've ever used.

Genuine leather. Adjustable length. After nearly 2 years, lots of rehearsals and stages, still there's no deformation, especially around the hook and adjustment holes. Also, it solved the neck dive situation of my cheap guitars.
