The Jackson Custom Shop Kelly is the kind of instrument that reminds you why Jackson has been synonymous with high-performance guitars since the very beginning. Built in the USA by the legendary Jackson Custom Shop, this Gold Top beauty combines the unmistakable attitude of the iconic Kelly body with premium craftsmanship and a carefully aged Nitro Tour Relic finish that gives it the look and feel of a road-tested favorite. Every detail reflects Jackson’s long-standing tradition of creating instruments for players who demand exceptional performance without compromise.

Its premium alder body and neck-thru three-piece maple neck create an incredibly resonant foundation with effortless upper-fret access and remarkable sustain. The ebony fingerboard, adorned with classic mother-of-pearl block inlays, offers a fast, smooth playing surface that’s ready for everything from aggressive rhythm work to blazing solos. A matched pair of DiMarzio 36th Anniversary humbuckers delivers rich vintage-inspired character with modern clarity, producing everything from articulate cleans to thick, harmonically rich overdrive. Premium appointments like the bone nut, jumbo frets, and Gotoh tuners ensure exceptional tuning stability, precise feel, and the confidence to play as hard as your music demands.

This Custom Shop Kelly is more than a high-performance guitar, it’s a showcase of Jackson’s legacy of innovation, artistry, and uncompromising craftsmanship. Whether it’s destined for the stage, the studio, or a serious collection, it offers the unmistakable feel, tone, and presence that only a Jackson Custom Shop instrument can deliver. Available now at Haggerty’s Music.
