Now the JS32T Kelly is better than ever with hot hardware and some new design features that make it just a much better experience.The Kelly BodyOriginally designed in the 1980's the Kelly was made specifically for the guitarist of Australian Metal band Heaven...turns out that he wasn't the best draw for a new model. But when Marty Friedman started using one a lot in the 90's it picked up popularity and the Jackson Kelly as we know it today became a go to in the world of metal.Using a Poplar body bolted on to a string 1 piece Maple speed neck with graphite reinforcement this guitar is strong enough to take years of playing and sound great while doing it.PlayabilityThe key to a great playing guitar is a well crafted neck. Depending on the style you play you will want different things. If you want to play blues, rock or jazz styles then a larger, smooth neck will feel great but if you want to play high speed, all out, shredtastic metal then the JS32T Kelly has the slim, fast neck that will suit what you want to play.Jackson High Output PickupsThis pickups in this guitar have been designed by Jackson to offer the highest amount of gain possible without making it quite a bit more expensive. These work really well with high gain sounds on your amp for metal, hard rock, punk and similar styles.SpecificationsBodyBody Shape: KellyBody Material: PoplarBody Finish: Gloss PolyesterNeckNeck Material: 1-Piece Bolt-On Maple Speed Neck with Graphite Reinforcement and Scarf JointNeck Shape: Speed NeckNeck Binding: WhiteScale Length: 25.5" (648 mm)Fingerboard Radius: 12" to 16" Compound Radius (304.8 mm to 406.4 mm)Number of Frets: 24Fret Size: JumboString Nut: PlasticNut Width: 1.6875" (42.8 mm)Neck Plate: JacksonNeck Finish: SatinFingerboard: AmaranthPosition Inlays: Pearloid SharkfinElectronicsBridge Pickup: Jackson High Output HumbuckingNeck Pickup: Jackson High Output HumbuckingControls: Master Volume, Master TonePickup Switching: 3-Position Toggle: Position 1.
