Thanks

Re: Jackson KE3 Kelly?

judging by the fact that is MIJ, it as 24 frets, and has EMG's, i'd say it's a KEMG. Part of the MG series. sweet guitar. if you're thinking of buying it, don't hesitate. MIJ Jackson necks are incredible.

Hmmm, that is odd. I'd be about 99 per cent sure the model you're looking at is out of production anyway, and certainly no KE3 Kelly have been shipped with EMGs as stock for a while.
You shouldn't worry about whether it's the KE3 or not anyway, because the MIJ Jacksons are typically very well made instruments and the Kelly has a reputation as a good shredder.

i guess i'm most concerned about whether it looks dodgy or not, becuase to me at least it doesnt look like a JS series instrument or anything.
The guy does however have 100% feedback, however when i asked him what model it was or whether it was a KE3 he didnt know...............

I don't think it's a KE3, but I don't think it's a cheap JS series either. It just... looks too good. The finish is phenomenal, the rosewood looks great... it might be a modified PS6T, who knows.

^The JS Series only came in hardtails, and JS are made in , is it India or Korea, but definitely not MIJ.
