    My first custom shop

    King Kelly 25th anniversary #10 out of 25



    headstock



    reverse headstock (mike shannon and tim wilson)



    body black with white pinstriping





    I've no idea what kind of bridge this is ??



    I believe the seller that he never played it (at last not often , the strings were dead but newlike ???plus crappy strings (is that a fender thing ??)

    Anyhow thanks for looking at my first custom shop

    P.S. - anyone post your kelly customs
    Enjoying a rum and coke, just didn't have any coke...

      Nice geetar. Congrats. Bridge is a Schaller 456.

      Is that the one from Fleabay? Had to hold myself back from throwing a bid at her.

                I personally do not care how it was built as long as it is a good playing/sounding instrument.

                Yes, there's a bee in the pudding.

                        The strings may have absorbed the excess ebony dye from the board. Were your fingertips black after playing?

                        That's how my WarAngel was. I thought it was fingerfunk from someone playing it, but the board is far too black to be that color naturally.

                        And yeah, the crappy color-coded strings are standard.
                        I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood

                            What is the difference in size to, say, a KE-2? I have a 2003 KE-2 and a 1993 Kelly Custom and they are not the same size, so I was just wondering...
