Jackson refresh their budget-friendly JS Series for 2016 – this is the revised Jackson Kelly JS32. Still has the electrifying body shape and lightning fast neck – also includes a bolt-on neck with 24-fret fingerboard, double-locking tremolo bridge, passive Jackson electronics and Jackson hardware…

Swift, deadly and affordable, Jackson JS Series guitars take an epic leap forward, making it easier than ever to get classic Jackson tone, looks and playability without breaking the bank.

The electrifying JS Series Kelly™ JS32 has a poplar body, bolt-on maple speed neck with graphite reinforcement, compound-radius (12”-16”) bound rosewood fingerboard with 24 jumbo frets and pearloid sharkfin inlays, and bound headstock. Other features include dual high-output Jackson humbucking pickups with ceramic magnets and three-way toggle switching, Jackson-branded double-locking tremolo bridge, black hardware and die-cast tuners.

Born to be played onstage and armed with an electrifying shape and lightning-fast neck, the Kelly has been a popular Jackson staple ever since its 1984 introduction. When U.K. magazine Guitarist published a special “Book of Metal” issue, it referred to the Kelly as “one helluva guitar with a truly massive sound. Arguably the be-all and end-all of rock guitars. This has to be the coolest axe ever from one of the genre’s greatest names.”
