I'm continuing my search for a Jackson Kelly, and have a good promising lead.
I just wanted to run it past the experts to see if it is a good deal or not.
I have not seen the guitar yet (am going later this afternoon or this evening) so am just going to give you the rundown I got from the owner over the phone.
It's a Jackson KE3 in Eerie Dess Swirl.
Not sure of year (I haven't gotten the serial number yet) but it is the older model with the chrome hardware and Duncan Designed Invader pickups.
He said it is in very good condition and the only imperfection he saw was a small paint chip on the tip of the large body point (of course) about half the size of a pencil eraser. Other than that, he says it "looks like new."
It comes with it's original (huge) hardshell case. Appears to be missing the trem arm (at least he says he doesn't see it in there anywhere.)
He's an older gentleman who bought it for his son, who hardly touched it and his son has seen moved on. Anyway, he's asking $350 for it. That's exactly what I have to spend on it, so that works out. But is that a good deal, or are used KE3 models usually higher or lower than that?
Thanks for any input!
EDIT: Here's a crappy cell phone pic of it to tide us over till I get it!
