Super-cool! The gold pinstriping really sets it off.
The no volume/hardwired to the jack reminds me of my 1st electric hand-me-down. It really taught me to prevent unwanted string noise when playing with distortion."Your work is ingenius…it’s quality work….and there are simply too many notes…that’s all, just cut a few, and it’ll be perfect."

Absolutely awesome! I didn't know they built Kellys that far back.

Oh, forgot to ask, is this the full size (King) Kelly, of course minus the cutouts. Because it's an early-made one, I'm inclined to say yes, but I needs to know!

I was also wondering if it was a king or medium size. Looks like a King Kelly to me. It's very cool, either way! Originally Posted by MetalMedal II

It's funny, the no volume knob kind of freaks me out, but 95% of the time the only reason I touch my guitar volume is to make sure it's turned up all the way...

How does it feel with no controls? In a way its very simple and awesome but no volume might be difficult to get used to.

The awesomeness on this post is just over the top! Really love it - very pretty and I'm a big fan of Kelly guitars and basses! I'll try to get a Playboy couch photo of the J/C awesomeness in March - Feb is just overbooked at the moment!
