I agree, that guitar looks pretty sweet. Probably ever need to swap out the pickups if you werent satisified with the tone.

Nah, the KE2 goes for over a thousand USD, so I'm guessing this the KE3 or some other bolt on version.

Personally, I think that guitar is really ugly looking. The way it's shaped, it's just like... ugh.  |

Funny how opinions defer. In my eyes the Kelly is one of the most appealing guitar body designs of all time. They are also comfortable as hell to play.
Looks like a killer deal, find out what pickups those are just so you know if they're replacement-worthy or not [i.e. you can save them for later use if you happen to get your pickups changed.] |

ask the guy if it's neck thru or bolt on.
if it's neck thru you're getting a shitty deal and you should send me that guy's email/contact so i can report him for false advertising.

I have the cheaper model of this Kelly and I love the body style as well. They are very comfortable to play on indeed!

Nah, its good bro, i was just kidding.
All the Jacksons I have ever played are great, so if you are playing metal, I'd probably suggest one or an Ibanez.

Yeah... The KE2 has a a toneknob in adition to volume. The guitar on picture only have volume. If you look at the headstock you can see that there is colour of wood. I believe the neckthru's are painted on the necks.
I also think I can spot the über-shitty duncan designed detonators (copy of Invader).

Plus theres no "Made in USA" script after the logo. Also, KE2's don't have reverse headstocks.

That guitar looks fucking great.
I must say, I dont really like art on bodies, but that arty finish is fucking great. I would buy the 7 string/ better pickupped version of that.
Fucking get it man, they are really comfortable and you wont regret it.
