I’ve always loved Jackson Kelly’s, I don’t even know why but there’s something about the look of them
They look sharp. Literally. At least that's what I think.
Awesome review. I had a late 90s performer series Kelly in metallic green, it was an absolute beast! It was huge 😂 I loved it and I really regret selling it 😢
Green Kellies are so cool. I've seen a few of those up for sale and almost got one!
that song you played at the start was absaloutly amaizng
Thanks! I write all my demos, usually in the midst of filming, so I really appreciate comments like this. ⚡️🦩
@@Electric.Flamingo you wrote that whilst recording?!? That’s crazy. How your not a famous artist I’ll never know.
@Spicy_Waffles it's usually in the process of everything, a noodle turns into riff turns into a track. I appreciate that very much!
Man, excellent video and some very sweet sample playing. I like the songs. Bought a Kelly!
Thanks so much, I appreciate that! Enjoy your Kelly! ⚡️🦩
Extraordinary demo track on this one! And the Jackson obsession continues :)
I actually got lazy and reused a song I did for the Bogren Digital contest they are running this month. 😅 thank you, though! It's an obsession I'm glad to have! lol
That demo track was awesome dude!!🤘
Thanks! It was my entry to the Bogren Digital contest for this month, I figured it showcased the guitar pretty well!
My wife gave me a Kelly as my surprise Christmas gift- even in my favorite color matte black. I'm very impressed with my new Kelly. It is very comfortable on my knee, and in my hands, and lots of fun to play. I always wanted an Explorer-style shaped guitar, and now I've got one 😁
Hell yeah! Awesome Christmas gift, W wife! ⚡️🦩
Informative for me as I have this guitar now. Thanks for the info on the floyd rose.
No problem!
@@Electric.Flamingoany help on the size of block I should use for a kelly
@gyrusscalvary not sure of a specific size on that!
I'm glad when someone mentions the deep cutaway on Kelly, it really makes it comfortable to reach those high frets.
It's one of my favorite parts about it!
Love my Kelly's!!!! Sick guitars! Jackson🔥🔥🔥
They have been a top brand for me lately. ⚡️🦩
My brother has a Kelly, I had a Dinky and now I have an RR3. Dinky has to be the most comfortable guitar for playing sitting down ever created. I didn't like the neck on mine (it was a cheap JS11 and it had a Strat style neck), so I sold it, but other than that it was VERY comfortable. RR is also crazy comfortable, once you get used to the classical position. Kelly felt weird at first, but once I got used to it, it became very comfortable too. Wanna try Warrior and King V to see what they're like.
I have a King V as well, compares very closely to the RR. I've never played a Warrior, but I want one so bad. lol
That thing is flames brooo 🔥
Preesh! I need to figure out what they pickup is and see if it adds to the deal I got on it. lol.
@@Electric.Flamingo it may not be something primo but whatever it is absolutely rips 🤘🏻
Jackson Kelly Shape is awesome, I love them
It really is. It doesn't really look super comfy, but it is.
I play all of my guitars in classical position or standing. That's why I'm looking at the LTD ARROW over the other "V" shapes and the Kelly Jackson over the DEAN ZERO. I have yet to get my hands on an IBANEZ XIPHOS to try out, but thank goodness Guitar Center has 500 cookie-cutter Fenders, Gretsch and Epiphones perched on the wall. That wall is like a glue-trap for moms who buy for their beginner sons and old men who dream of that one concert they attended in 1976.
I've heard great things about the LTD Arrow. Best of luck in your hunt and great analogy for the GC wall. 😂
About the bodysize, has it remained the same over the years?
I got a Kelly in late 90s and I have never payed attention on it being any smaller than my Explorer but after this video, I think it could be.
You didn't play the guitar with a strap but once you do there might be a lot of neck dive.
Fortunately there's a solution for that on a bolt-on, moving the strap button to one of the screws on the neck joint fixed that problem.
I think, for the most part, the body size has stayed the same.
Yup..agreed. Kelly is the most comfortable explorer shaped guitar I’ve played. Subscribed.
Thank you! ⚡️🦩
I love my kelly. I don't know why they aren't more popular.
The weird shapes are a commodity. They are a very selective shape. lol
@@Electric.Flamingo You're right. I prefer this shape over their X shape. I actually bought mine because I liked the explorer but now I like the kelly better.
i am a jackson freek, mij jacksons are perfection
I absolutely agree. My Dinky and my RR3 are incredible guitars!
I inherited a trans green flame top USA Kelly from my uncle.
Heck of an inheritance!
Great video, but for me the Kelly Star is the best X shaped 😊
The Star is pretty awesome too. 👀
what model is it ?
I believe mine is a JS30, but don't quote me on that. It's an Indian made one and I know that before they went to China with the JS32, that was the model they made in India.
Nice , i love ur guitar
"Who plays kelly classical style?"
Me. I bought recently jackson kelly and it's really comfy playing in classical style. The most comfortable guitar i ever tried btw, except for neck dive, which is easy to fix.
I'll be honest, I've never tried playing one classically because I thought it was just impossible because of the shape. I might have to try it now. 😅
best shape out of all the explorer types...... sexy AF imo
Agreed.
Body wood does matter
You're entitled to your incorrect opinion.
No it doesnt.
on 2x speed your song sounds like Children of Bodom
Hell yeah, I'll take that. lol
Its actually a myth that dinkys have smaller bodys, they use to way back but all modern dinkys are the same size as the soloist
That, I did not know. I've always heard they were 7/8s size.
It is true they are 7/8th of a traditional strat body, but the dinky is the same size as the soloist, just one is a bolt on and the other is neck thru
Best x guitar is the Ibanez xiphos
Never tried one, always wanted to!
