Jackson Kelly Pro

I couldn't find my exact Jackson, but this one is close enough. This is by far my most expensive guitar. It's a little backwords actually. Usually people get cheap guitars for their first guitar. But, this was my first guitar. It's really nice, but it's complicating. Even after two to three years of playing, i still have a hard time with it. it's a lot different from other guitars I have, especially when it comes to restringing it. There are a lot of things you need to undo or loosen, and you have to go one string at a time. I'm not trying to complain, even though it sounds like I am, It just isn't a guitar I was prepared for.

Other than it's complexity, it plays great, the best of all my guitars. but, if you are on a budget I wouldn't recommend this one. I got it for Christmas, and it was used, but a brand new one will cost you up to $2,000.00. But it's worth every penny.

The action on this guitar is amazing, and the neck plays fast. This is defiantly a metal guitar. Equip with EMG pickups, and a Floyd Rose this guitar rocks. I've heard a lot of people with Gibson's say that this guitar sounds as good or better. It also plays good sitting or standing. Some people may think that because of it's awkward shape, it might be difficult to play, but it isn't a problem. Weather you're having a lazy day at home or tearing it up on stage, this guitar is a great one.
