The Jackson X Series Kelly KEX Electric Guitar stands out due to its striking offset angular design, ultra-fast neck, and its high-output humbucking pickups that deliver a rich, full tone with maximum overdrive and sustain.
The Maple Neck-Through-Body construction, a signature of Jackson since 1980, extends the maple neck through the entire length of the guitar body. This enhances playability and sustain, ensuring a seamless transition between the neck and body for smoother play and a more resonant sound.
The Jackson X Series Kelly KEX Electric Guitar ensures durability with its Graphite Reinforcement rods that flank the truss rod. This reinforcement provides additional neck stability, enabling the instrument to withstand the rigors of touring and frequent use.
While the Jackson X Series Kelly KEX Electric Guitar is designed with features that professionals would appreciate, its consistent performance and user-friendly design also make it suitable for beginners who are serious about their guitar playing.

Boasting an electrifying offset angular shape and lightning-fast neck, Jackson X Series Kelly models exude metal sophistication, while also delivering massive sound and reliable performance at an exceptional value.
Jackson High-Output Humbucking Pickups
Jackson high-output humbucking pickups were painstakingly voiced for full, rich tone while providing maximum overdrive and sustain.
Maple Neck-Through-Body with Graphite Reinforcement and Scarf Joint
True neck-through-body construction has been a Jackson hallmark since 1980, allowing for greater playability and sustain. Neck-through is a method of guitar construction which involves extending the piece of wood(maple) 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.
