From the specs I've seen, looks like it's a solid mahogany body (no maple top). That, fretboard material, and a satin finish seem to the the only differences between this and a stock PC-1.

Besides the 25 of each.

Guys, what about the batch run of 2014 NAMM CS Kellys that are modeled after Phil's original Destroyer? I think those are WAY better.

Its the recessed Floyd that kills it for me.

That's a cool run, but not my bag. And I'd MUCH rather order a custom shop in that xstroyer body style. ...If only they'd let me.

MY OH MY OH MY!

B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L!!!

I have a masterbuild Kelly on order... I wonder if i can change my order to that!

...without the recess! I agree. The recess is an ugly eye sore!

Nevermind. I'll stick with my Masterbuild Kelly. ETA- 1 year 2 months.

Actually, they'll do quite a lot of tweaks on an artist guitar, as long as that artist is still on the Jackson roster, or as long as no reference is made to that artist in the specs (I guess so they have some plausible deniability). For example, I ordered a 'PC1', which is a very different guitar to the standard model (h/s, no sustainer, rev head, AS neck profile, custom colour) plus was told I could order an Adrian Smith with no pickguard.

Which is why I am surprised at the Big Red being shown at NAMM. Aside from the chrome pup rings, I couldn't see a whole lot of differences from the original. I'm sure others can spot differences, but as an outsider to the JCF world, it looks dead-on to me.
