Jackson JS Series Kelly JS32

The Jackson brand has been around since 1980 and has been owned by Fender since 2002. Guitars perform well in heavy styles, are of good quality and durability at a moderate price. But the best advertisement for Jackson can be considered the fact that they are played by Dave Mustaine from Megadeth. The JS Series Kelly JS32 model is a stylish and inexpensive analogue of the Gibson Explorer for fans of penetrating solos and thermonuclear riffs.

Mega look

Kelly was named after Marty Friedman, the former guitarist of the same Megadeth. His signature model was called the KE-1, from which the name of the series comes. The tool pleases with a choice of colours for finishing — white, black, red, so that everyone will choose to their liking.

Mega sound

The body of the guitar is made of poplar wood, which gives a smooth, balanced sound and goes well with Floyd typewriters. By the way, this is exactly what is here. On a clean channel, the sound is a bit muffled, but on overload everything is very good.

A 24-fret neck with a standard scale allows you to roam on the passages, and branded humbuckers with ceramic magnets pump quite adequately. A comfortable neck radius and fingerboards help to achieve more accurate intonation, and a graphite nut paired with Die-cast tuners hold the tune well even with heavy pull-ups.

Jackson JS Series Kelly JS32 is fully tuned for virtuoso playing. If you aspire to become a virtuoso guitarist or have already become one and play heavy music, this instrument is for you.
