Overview
Armed with a slab top, electrifying angular shape and lightning-fast neck, X Series Kelly models exude metal sophistication, while also delivering massive sound and reliable performance at an exceptional value.
The X Series Kelly KEXQ features lightweight and resonant poplar body wings with a gorgeous quilt maple top. Its through-body maple neck has a scarf joint and graphite reinforcement for rock-solid stability that guards against climate and humidity changes. Built for blazing playing speeds and comfort, the 12"-16" compound radius laurel fingerboard hosts 24 jumbo frets and pearloid sharkfin inlays.
A pair of volcanic Jackson high-output humbucking bridge and neck pickups give the KEXQ plenty of tonal girth with searing high end and crystal clear mids. Tone is customizable with a three-way toggle switch and single volume and tone controls, while a Floyd Rose Special double-locking tremolo system provides superior string stability and dynamic tremolo action.
This metal-worthy axe is available in a sophisticated Transparent Green finish with white binding, Jackson pointed 6-in-line black headstock and black hardware.

"Excellent guitar"

Just received it in the mail today. Quick tune up and set the action to suit me and away I went. Great feeling neck thin but not too thin. The appearance of this instrument is just stellar. The quilted top looks almost 3 dimensional. The Floyd Rose special is leaps and bounds above the Jackson branded trems that used to come at this price point as are the Jackson pickups in this guitar. They are thick and well balanced and not muddy unlike the older Jackson pickups which were garbage. Overall it’s an instrument well worth its price and more.
