Real Jackson Quality for Less!

Part of Jackson's JS Series, the JS32T Kelly solidbody electric guitar packs a lot of value. A pair of high-output ceramic-magnet humbuckers hits your amplifier with huge tone — just what you need for aggressive performance. And while the price is low, you'll be astounded at how good the JS32T Kelly plays. The compound-radius fretboard makes it easy to blaze around the neck, and the graphite-reinforced maple neck is designed for a long life of reliable action. Whether you're just starting to rock or are looking for a value-packed shred machine, you'll be impressed with the Jackson JS32T Kelly.

Compound-radius fingerboard boasts the best of both worlds

The Jackson JS32T Kelly sports a compound-radius amaranth fingerboard with jumbo frets. Down low, your fretting hand will appreciate the 12-inch radius that keeps things nice and comfortable for natural, relaxed chord work. Up top, a 16-inch radius lays it all out flat for effortless, low-action, and high-speed runs with monumental string bends without fretting out. The JS32T Kelly balances the best of both worlds.

Jackson high-output pickups deliver the ultra-hot tone you need to tear it up

Looking for rock-solid metal tone? The Jackson JS32T Kelly delivers! That's because Jackson hooked the JS32 Kelly up with a pair of their custom-built humbuckers. These high-output humbuckers give you plenty of punch and serious bite — just what you need for today's most aggressive guitar styles.

Aggressive looks for an aggressive guitar

If you're after a guitar that looks as mean as it sounds, then Sweetwater can highly recommend the JS32T Kelly. The body shape alone is enough to convey instant attitude. Throw in Jackson's distinctive pointy headstock and shark fin inlays, and you've got one menacing guitar with the Jackson JS32T Kelly. Exactly what you've been looking for, right?

Jackson JS32T Kelly Solidbody Electric Guitar Features:

  • A high-performance guitar for an amazing low price
  • Dual Jackson custom humbuckers deliver hard-hitting high-gain tone
  • Compound-radius amaranth fingerboard feels great for rhythm and lead playing
  • Slender graphite-reinforced maple neck resists warping and twisting over the years

Bad*ss Guitar
I love this thing! This is my first Jackson and I am not disappointed. Took me awhile to find a Kelly without a floyd rose and I'm pretty sure this was the only one i could find at the time i bought it. Would like to see more hard tails from them in the future!. If you're looking to play very heavy thrash/death/nu metal type songs, this thing is super chunky and basically has a ruler for a neck. You won't regret it, pick one up if you're looking for an extra axe to add to your arsenal for a good price.

Right out of the box this guitar rips
It is a heavy metal monster
The only adjustment i needed to do was move the front guitar strap post to a different spot. The guitar had a head dive problem so i moved it to the top rear neck plate screw and it's fixed
Absolutely love this guitar
The neck is fast and the tuners are tight

Great affordable guitar
The factory strings broke rather quick but after changing the strings on this guitar I had no problem with it. It is a touch neck heavy but there is a handy body that gives you a great supportive arm rest. An utterly awesome guitar for the price.

great guitar
i purchased one back in 2013 and back then it was only in two colors black or white i think there was a sunburst version but i ordered this guitar white back then the white one was cheaper in price for some reason then all the other colors it's been a great guitar over the years stays in tune i purchased some vintage blues pickups to replace the jackson high output pickups
what a tuff guitar also handles all kinds of abuse you throw at it and still stays in tune and the more they age the better they sound over time i would recommend this guitar to those who want quality without breaking the bank and for those that are looking for a lighter axe to use while on long stints on stage or just want a kool looking guitar that sounds greater than it looks.

A lot of guitar for not a lot of money
I just picked up my Jackson JS32T…I love it! I couldn't be happier. I'm a blues/punk musician and this fits the bill rather nicely. I usually play Strats but I expanded my horizons this time around and seem to have scored. This guitar offers a great deal under the hood for its price point. It plays like a much more expensive guitar. I would recommend it for ANY guitarist looking for a lot of guitar for not a lot of money.
