Nice Kelly?!?

[toejam]

Dave Linsk has always been a Jackson fan, used his King Kelly Custom on the live Overkill DVD a couple years ago, and he had the first Double Rhoads/King V in the '80s before Robbin Crosby. Now he's got this weird new Kelly rip-off with cut-outs and long horn. Anyone know what company made it?

Looks to me like a rip-off of Brad's "King Kutt" Kelly design? From the JCF gallery...

[wilkinsi]

is there any clue on the headstock?

[m2pmd70]

On his website he has "K. Loud custom guitars" listed on his Gear page?

[slash-ed]

3 a side headstock totally doesn't work for me.

No binding on neck? Covered pups? Blegh.

Such a waste of a nice quilt top.

I guess that's what it is. They made this cool Explorer for Overkill's rhythm guitar player, Derek Tailer, and you can clearly see that name on the headstock. I can't find a website or anything else about them, though.

^Not the same, but still, wonder why there's no site to speak of..?

OK I think i stumbled onto a builders website of k.loud custom guitars. He clearly has dave linsk guitar as it was being built and says he is a builder...
oh and here is the link to myspace http://www.myspace.com/willoud Looks like they made 2 versions of it too!...I accept paypal plz! lol

Cool! I actually noticed in the last couple Overkill CDs, KLoud Guitars are mentioned in the liner notes. Guess they never really had an official website.

In the 1st pic, his forearm is covering up the cutout on the top of the body. I wonder if the cutout digs into his arm while playing! Well, it's nice to see him play something different than the green epiphone LP that I've seen him the last couple times I caught overkill live.
