A Modernized "V" for Today's Demands
The NV-1000 EMG Black carries the visual DNA and stage attitude of classic V guitars with a more contemporary approach: a mahogany body in a "Narrow V" format for improved balance and comfort, while maintaining an immediate presence live. Within the lineup, it stands as a high-performance, speed-oriented version designed for guitarists seeking radical ergonomics without compromising reliability.
Who Is It For and What Styles?
This 6-string electric guitar is primarily aimed at intermediate to expert guitarists looking for an efficient "machine" for metal, hard rock, and modern rock. The 25.5" / 648 mm scale length provides precise tension and clear attack, suitable for standard tuning as well as down-tunings. The Thin U profile and Extra Jumbo frets facilitate fast playing, tight palm mutes, legato runs, and solos that require sustain.
Sound
The combination of the EMG 81 (bridge) and EMG 60 (neck) delivers a modern, tight, and highly articulate tonal range. At the bridge, the EMG 81 emphasizes sharp attack and firm lows for precise rhythms and easily cutting harmonics. At the neck, the EMG 60 offers a more singing tone, ideal for defined leads and clear arpeggios without losing clarity under gain. The mahogany body reinforces the low-end foundation, while the 3-piece maple neck-through construction contributes to sustain and stability. The Macassar ebony fingerboard enhances attack and note definition, and the active electronics with 1 volume control and a 3-position selector switch go straight to the point: efficiency, consistency, and power.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To stay close to the original string gauge, a set of 09-42 electric guitar strings is a safe choice (balance, feel, and setup consistent with the instrument). A quality 6.35 mm jack cable and a comfortable strap effectively complete the gear for rehearsals and stage use.
