Jackson Pro Series Signature Brandon Ellis Kelly Electric Guitar, Green Crackle, Jackson Gig Bag

The Black Dahlia Murder guitarist Brandon Ellis has been captivating the metal realm since taking over lead guitar duties on the band’s 2017 album Nightbringers. Jackson® is proud to honor the incredible talents of the self-taught axe ace with the Pro Series Signature Brandon Ellis Kelly™. This signature behemoth seethes with metal sophistication, while also delivering massive sound and high-performance efficiency.

This signature Kelly features lightwood and resonant poplar body-wings and a through-body maple neck with graphite reinforcement and scarf joint for enhanced sustain, stability and comfort. Built for pulverizing speed, a 12”-16” compound radius bound ebony fingerboard hosts 24 jumbo frets and reverse pearloid sharkfin inlays.

Ready to roar, this sig model is also equipped with a single Seymour Duncan® Parallel Axis bridge humbucking pickup. This humbucker rips with plenty of over-wound attitude for bright, expressive high-end and endless sustain, while a Floyd Rose® 1000 Series double-locking tremolo system provides exceptional dynamic response and reliable tuning stability throughout extreme pitch changes.

Other features include a single volume control, Dunlop® dual-locking strap buttons and Jackson sealed die-cast tuners.

As distinctive as its namesake, the Pro Series Signature Brandon Ellis Kelly™ comes in a distinct Green Crackle finish with reverse pointed 6-in-line black headstock with green Jackson logo and black hardware.

THROUGH-BODY MAPLE NECK CONSTRUCTION WITH GRAPHITE REINFORCEMENT

Neck-through-body construction has been a Jackson hallmark since 1980, allowing for greater playability comfort and enhanced sustain. Neck-through is a method of guitar construction which involves extending the piece of wood used for the neck through the entire length of the body. Graphite-reinforcement rods flanking the truss rod provide even more neck stability to help the instrument withstand the rigors of the road.

SEYMOUR DUNCAN® PARALLEL AXIS HUMBUCKING BRIDGE PICKUP

This sig model is equipped with a single Seymour Duncan® Parallel Axis humbucking bridge pickup. This unique pickup combines Seymour Duncan’s patented dual-pole design, an alnico 5 bar magnet and over-wound coils for a bold, bright tone with an articulate, clear high end and a tight, focused low end. This pickup design will noticeably increase the guitar’s natural sustain with clear and defined sound at all gain levels. Think present chords with growl and leads with a nice glassy quality.

This guitar went from the factory to their authorized refurbisher, where it received a full multi-point inspection and expert setup - it is ready to play! This guitar has 2 small areas on the points where the crackle finish is missing and the underlying wood is visible - see the photos. However, these areas have been sealed, clear-coated, and buffed smooth. No other modifications were made except the back of the headstock was stamped USED and the original serial number was replaced with a new one. I acquired this guitar from the refurbisher, and there has been no other owner. This NEAR MINT guitar has not been played except for setup and testing.

Check-out the videos on YouTube and more information on the company website. This is a Great guitar at a Great Price!

Enjoy!
