Re: Where are the Kelly guitars?

i can only post the pics sent to me before i bought this from stratheadcharvel since i'm STILL waiting for my drummer to loan me his digi cam and do the family portrait. at this rate tom will probably have the Death Warrior shipped to me before i get the camera so at least i'll have pics of her too!




dollar for dollar, the best axe purchase i ever made... [img]/images/graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

My hands aren't extraordinarily large, but hitting the 24th fret is a bit of a squeeze, and bending on the 24th fret even more so.
Up to the 22nd (which is all I use most of the time) is fine..

Re: Where are the Kelly guitars?

I've never liked the way that the Kelly balances, and the 'wing' always gets in the way of my right arm, since I wear my guitars fairly high. Cool shape, though.

For me, it is more about the horn being in the way of maintaining proper wrist/hand position above the fourteenth fret.

Here's mine:

Re: Where are the Kelly guitars?

I was sort of a Pre-Kelly Kelly owner.....



In the late 80's I put a Charvel neck on a Warmoth mockingbird body... I sculpted out a cutaway and shaved the neck heel (prior to Ibanez doing it). I took a chance and preordered the Jackson tremolo because I had faith that it would be a good trem. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I did have fun wiring the pickups with On/Off/On phase switches... the neck pickup could change phase and the hums could be Hum/Off/Split. I played that guitar through the ninetys, put an import neck and pickups in it that you see above, and sold it.
