lurker needs help with kelly ID

[Lankyleo]

hey guys, been reading alot of the forums recently trying to figure out what guitar ive been playing for the past 5 or 6 years and im still stumped..if needed ill get some pics up but heres the basics:
black kelly, w/black hardware and licensed floyd,24 frets, volume, 3 way switch, shark fin inlays and just says 'jackson' on the head stock, SN 98110240.....pulled the stock pickups and they were labeled M-214 and M-213, which i saw mentioned that they were actually kent armstrong units and apparently jackson had a deal signed with them for a short while or something? bought it off ebay a long time ago and have since forgotten what it is...

any help is much aprreciated....and whats this thing worth nowadays?

thanks guys [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img]

Definatly an import kelly. What does the truss rod cover say, if anything ?

98 means Made in Japan (I think). Need more details....bolt on? Fretboard material? Bound or non bound? Probably a KE3.

Re: lurker needs help with kelly ID

i had that pups too in one of my ps6ts
i swapped them
i have 1 with ond 2 without "ps6t" on the tussrodcover
but ps6ts have no sharks, and ps seriesmodels normally read "performer" near by the jackson logo
so think it should be a ke3 or something
for t(he) worth (nice word-play he) i would say:
it depends on what people are willing to pay
for example in germany about 400$ in the states about 300$

Lack of tone knob IDs this as a KE3, just as I predicted.
Made In Japan, originally came with Duncan Designed pups.

Now stain that fretboard, and get a better amp! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Incorrect. [img]/images/graemlins/poke.gif[/img] KE-3's have JT-580 trems, a much thinner neck( you can see in the pic that it's a bat) and have a tapered heal...this one is not. They also do not have generic neck plates. This is a JK-20 Pro from Musicians Friend from '99 or so.

It's back to Trem ID school for me! [img]/images/graemlins/fart.gif[/img]
