JacksonGuitars JS Series Kelly JS32T 6-String Electric Guitar with Amaranth Fingerboard (Right-Handed, Satin Black)

I own over 25 Guitars & 7 Jackson's.I like the Jackson's for there Modern designs / Playability & High Gain Pickups.The Setup & finish for this Kelly was very good for this Price Point.I also own Jackson's higher-end Guitars too.I use this Kelly Guitar for every day Practice, works & sounds great.

If you want a guitar that looks and sounds like Megadeth/Metallica/Slipknot then this is the guitar for you. Very sleek and sexy, a total show off guitar and excellent for beginners.Pros - Stock pickups sound really crispy and clean and the clean tone is off the chain it sounds so good. Has a great body shape and the tuners on the head, for mine, were locking tuners so that was a huge plus. Took nothing and no time to restring through the body and it stayed in tune 99.9% of the time. Fret ends were polished and NOT sharp at all, neck was in tune and intonation was already set. It is very rare you open a guitar and not immediately have to do maintenance on it. The strings that came with it were basic gauge but were clean and NOT dirty.Cons - NONEBeginner or pro, this guitar is freaking awesome. Pair it with a Katana MK II 50 amp and a BOSS GT-1 and you will be in HEAVEN.

Solid guitar but made of very light wood. Had a few issues getting it to stay in tune. Overall good product.

Impressive neck, fretboard, and fretwork for a guitar in this range. It feels and plays great and mine was nicely set up right out of the box. The fretboard feels a bit dry but I sort of like that it's different - I have heard that some fretboard oil can remedy the dryness if you find it to be an issue. The tuners are what you'd expect but they work, the knobs feel nice and taught, and the pickups are surprisingly tight for fast muted stuff but expectedly lack warmth. The body is light so the location of the front strap button encourages neck dive (I have seen pictures of these with strap buttons on the back near the neck plate but mine came with one on the top edge). I remedied this by unscrewing the strap button, unscrewing a neck plate screw, drilling out the button so that the neck plate screw fit through it, sliding it on to the neck plate screw and then tightening it back in place, then putting the original strap button screw back where it was to fill the hole it left. Or you could, of course, just sit when you play or get comfortable with the balance as it is.For the price you can't go wrong with this. It is a great beginner guitar, and a great platform for more advanced players to upgrade. If you put some nicer tuners on this and a set of better pickups, it could easily hold its own against more professional grade guitars.

I was kinda iffy about buying a new generation Jackson, because I’ve seen very mixed reviews on them. But I’m glad I made this purchase. I was riffing and learning all new songs fresh out of the box after a string change and some adjustments. It’s comfortable sitting or standing. I have mine in drop C and I could put it down for a day or two and it will be perfectly in tune. I definitely recommend this guitar for anyone looking for a budget explorer shape. Personally, I’m going to get locking tuners, and maybe a new set of pickups, but that’s just my personal preference.

Don't waste your time. They didn't even aligned nect to the body.

Got this for my oldest son who is 17 and he absolutely loves it! Sounds really good, I hear it all the time!

This is the satin finish Jackson Kelly JS 32 series. This is the best money can buy for the price range Jackson at its finest even at its loveest price point you will be very happy with this guitar and more so. The only thing I would recommend doing is swapping the strings out with some decent ones other than that the guitar is top notch for its price range.
