Michael Kelly 1965 Custom Collection Electric Guitar - Striped Ebony

Michael Kelly 1965 Custom Collection Electric Guitar - Striped Ebony
The Michael Kelly Custom Collection 65 Ebony model features a hard to find exotic ebony top, swamp ash body, real flame maple binding, and Rockfield hot rodded electronics with coil splitting providing 11 epic tone options. This is a real players guitar.

Epic Eleven MOD
The Epic Eleven electronics hot-rod mod delivers maximum sonic versatility. With Epic Eleven you get to break away from the typical 5 tones limitation of a traditional 5-way switch wiring. The secret sauce is the added mini-toggle, which allows you to add in the neck pickup into configurations where it would not normally be available. The second way that the Epic Eleven Mod adds sonic options is with a push-pull on the Master Volume which allows you to coil tap the bridge humbucker, switching from hum to a vintage single coil tone.

Michael Kelly Guitars
Michael Kelly remains focused on their vision statement to be "Built On Sound" and each time they put the cherry on top by giving the musician a bold look. They are proud that they do not offer the cookie cutter boring guitars that are readily available from so many brands. They know there are players that prefer classic simplicity and they very much respect that. However, Michael Kelly will continue to be the brand of choice for those that prefer something more boutique and unique.
