up a notch with what he calls "The Ultimate Metal Guitar!" Bred to Shred. Like any great instrument, the Annihilation V starts with great tone woods and construction. The neck is solid mahogany joined to a solid mahogany body using a traditional deep set, Flying V neck joint that's handed fitted and glued in place for optimum tone and sustain. For lightning fast performance combined with comfort, the neck features a "D" profile SlimTapertm neck combined with a 24 fret phenolic fingerboard that not only allows a full two octaves of range but also an ultra smooth and extremely durable surface. Tone to the Bone! At the heart of any great guitar are great pickups and this guitar is no exception. Designed specifically for Jeff by Epiphone engineers and made by Gibson U.S.A.'s world famous pickup division, the Annihilation V features custom "JWT" Jeff Waters Treble and "JWR" Jeff Waters Rhythm 4 wire humbuckers in the bridge and neck positions respectively. Overwound and featuring a Ceramic 8 magnet, the JWT bridge humbucker can deliver the right combination of crunch and growl without ever losing it's enhanced lows and crystal clear highs. The JWR neck pickup features an Alnico II magnet that provides vintage tone with great sustain and clarity along with the right combination of power and warmth. Together, the two pickps offer the perfect combination of crunch and clean. But wait... there's more!
