"its decent enough"
Feature:
for the price, its features aren't all that bad. but it could use a better bridge than the one it has.
Quality:
for the price its a good deal. i love mine.
Value:
like i have said before, it is a great deal for the price.
Desirability:
its looks are great! the shape of the body, the color, everything about the way this guitar looks is great.
Sound:
the sound is really good, especially for the price. with the right distortion, you can make it scream
Ease of Use:
it plays GREAT right out of the box. i eventually lowered the bridge and replaced the strings.
Overall:
ive already bought another guitar since then. its a b.c. rich Kerry King V. it completely owns all other guitars i have purchased. i still play my Kelly, but it doesnt get near as much use as before

"Jackson Quality at n Affordable price Finally! : )"
Feature:
well would be a PERFECT 10 if there wre "Shark Fin" inlays
but if you really wanted to, gettng a new neck with those inlays is not a problem nowdays, but in it's stock form you'll be VEY happy.
Quality:
Quality, ok here's the tough one because even the "Inexpensive Guitars" are good "Once They are Set Up" like people everyone is a little different, so stock wise this will be right on for many!
overall the woods are great! neck construction is solid,body is well finished and will last a L-O-N-G time....nothing was loose,and worked well, even if had been customer support is good!! road wise i have several and all hold up great!! again at this price hard to find a better deal! i have spent up to 3,245 for a guitar and this feels "RIGHT on Par" after i had the action set..
difference between the Super priced Kelly's and this one are "Graphics", Inlays,Pickups and your "Choice" of Bridges on the highend ones. other than that for 300.00* it's a "STEAL"
Value:
Value, again if was holding off because you couldn't get a high end KE1 (discontinued anyways) or the KE2 other than the shark fin inlays there almost Identical except for the hardware and type of wood.
example all of mine except for my JS series have EMG 81's and Khaler Bridges,and the 3,000 to the 300.00 "Feel The same" after i had my "Action Set" to my "Personal Tastes"
Desirability:
I have several and Gibson Explorers (modified with Jackson Necks)
so what can i say i "Love the Body Style"
Sound:
sound wise i would have to say right on par, Personaly i use EMG 81's and is what i have on all my Kelly's but regardless out of the "BOX" as it were you will like th sound the pickup is kina close to a Duncan JB. clean and has some good Growl. if lookg for the "Cleaner" Distortion if that helps? the stock pickups are DIALED!!
Ease of Use:
getting the right tone not to bad if you have a good amp most can vary the tones real well so good tones are not like it was back in the Hay day, getting used to it is not very hard, even when sitting it's not bad so getting used to it "Shape Wise" some might have to take a few days with it many may not,and moving the front strap post on the backplate (moving it down and forward) will help some.
Support:
over the past 20 years Jackson support has been Awesome,like all Industries there are good days and bad days,some dys ihad to wait but that is the nature of the beast sometimes were "Ony Human" in a General sence customer support is Awesome and they will allways take the time to help with "Any Question"
Overall:
overall what can you say? it's a JACKSON, it plays well and for many the set up is good! and even then set up is easy! Million sites now days! not lke it was back in the 80's and 90's so your getting a Killer Axe at a price everyone can afford! so so mow those lawns! do those chores! your Investment will be well rewarded!!
