NGD - 85 Kelly Custom, One hum!!
I tell ya first of. This guitar was harder to acquire from Waybe than the 84 Jackson Explorer I bought off him.
But alas After 3 times of Wayne getting cold feet I finally tempted him enough with something i bought off him earlier. so the trade was done!
In the log sheet this is J0822 Kelly Custom built for Glen La Ferman. Who does Band photography. Im going to email Glen to see if he can tell me a thing or two about this beauty.
But Reason why it was so hard to get from him is because of all the unique features this thing has like....
One Humbucker
Top Mount Floyd
No Volume Control
Black Binding on fretboard and headstock
Deep Bevel cuts on both sides
Tummy cut!!! <-----------Thats cool!
Gold Script Logo Also Cool
Gold Pinstriping
Has a Jackson J90 in it. Sounds pretty damn good. Anyways. Heres the pics..
its acutally Deep Candy Red but flash makes is brighter.

Awesome. Just awesome.
No volume knob seems like a pretty rare feature too!
Nice score as always.

I hate you Bob. Awesome acquisition. Congrats.
I could use that 'tummy tuck' option. Not only on my fiddles but on me as well. D'oh!_______________________

I've never been to Arkansas, but if you opened up a museum, it would be worth the trip (I think)

Ive seen that somewhere before. I think I might have partially considered buying it at some point. Its hard to forget seeing a one hum, no controls Kelly. Whered you score it at?

Tummy cut is a great idea on Kellys!
