    Hahaha, or if you switch pickups a lot you kind of get the split second selector-switch-and-volume-check fluid motion down.

    I honestly haven't had too much trouble with the volume going down on Jackson's though. But the old Washburn V I have with Gibson style speed knobs on the other hand... Yeah, I used to just tape that one.

      Yeah i saw those a few minutes ago, the oiled neck is a nice touch. That black quilt looks particularly delicious...
      It's all about the blues-rock chatter.

        I have to say that they're showing off some really cool new variations, for example the unpainted neck through design on an non custom shop jackson is really cool, SLS-like guitars with FR and those kellys.
        But i'm repeating myself: Jackson (FMIC) .... please bring back some ebony and put that ideas into some higher end guitars!!

          These are not Custom Shop USA, you can tell by the shape of the toggle switch. They don't have a serial number on the fretboard either. Yeah its probably X series Kelly stuff...

            +1. I have to do that a lot on certain axes with loose pots.

              I'm just surprised to see on a sudden set neck for kellies as even some Japan made KE3 were bolt on.Always saw the set neck on the US versions
              That would be a great news.The black with white binding looks killer. so simple but damn effective

                Perhaps there's going to be several models? There were bolt ons and set neck pictured, are they still offering the Ke5(I think that's what is was called?)

                  Hmm, bolt-ons? I thought they were just unpainted necks like some of the new Charvel Desolation guitars. I could be wrong though.

                    KE5 died with the rest of the Pro Series.

                          Yeah it does. Hopefully it's not just a case of that same Instagram magic that makes ugly chicks look like super models though. I'd actually like it if these were rad guitars.

                            There's a KE5 sitting at my local shop, but they won't come down from £999. Not worth it.

                              Set necks? When did they ever make a set-neck Kelly? Should be neck-thru.
                              I feel my soul go cold... only the dead are smiling.

                                They are neck-through, not set necks nor bolt-ons, just look at the photos man!
