Overview
Big tone and versatility are the calling card of the 53DB. With a double humbucker configuration, you start with a full array of classic tones often missing from a guitar of this style. We then added our custom electronics modification called the Great 8 allowing you to switch those humbuckers into a single-coil tone. This is done using two provided push-pull pots. Have fun with these eight distinctive tonal options!
The body on the 53DB is made from alder and has a great looking flame maple top. The instrument is feature-packed and fun to play; full specs below.

I currently have 4 Michael Kelly telecaster-type guitars, and they are a tremendously under-rated brand. I think the 53DB is my favorite, but it is a close race between it and the 53OP. Each of the humbuckers is coil-splitable, so the tonal range is as wide as you could care to go. The finish is fantastic, and the neck is very playable. I could not find anything wrong with the guitar whatsoever, and I highly recommend it to everyone. It is a STEAL at this price!
