Description

New version of Exploder!

The KG-Exploder, the successor to the popular Stallion, boasts high-quality construction and an affordable price. The KG-Exploder II has been upgraded with the same basic specifications, but now features a semi-gloss neck finish and a thicker body (45mm instead of 43mm).

The body is made of maple, which is known for its tight sound and pleasant distortion. Like its predecessor, the STARRION, it features Killer's original LQ-500 and Dyna-Bite pickups, providing unparalleled sound projection. Like its higher-end PRIME model, the escutcheon is recessed into the body.
The standard U-shaped neck is built with a new "semi-deep insert" joint, which is different from the previous Exploder, providing ample surface area and strength at the joint. The back of the neck has also been changed from the previous matte finish to a standard gloss finish.
The large control cavity was designed with the addition of controls in mind, and the wheel rod nut allows the truss rod to be adjusted without removing the neck or front pickup, specifications that can be said to have been thought out with the player in mind.

*The image is a sample, so the wood grain and color will vary from piece to piece.
