Jackson's X Series Limited Edition Kelly™ KE HT is a neck–through–body solid–body electric guitar built around a Diablo™ IV collaboration theme. The instrument targets metal and hard rock players seeking distinctive aesthetics paired with high–output tone. Its defining feature is the one–piece maple neck with graphite reinforcement and 25.5" scale length, designed to deliver stable intonation and rapid fretwork across the 24 jumbo frets.
Construction centres on a nyatoh body finished in gloss with blood–red binding, mated to a through–body maple neck reinforced with graphite and a scarf joint for added rigidity. The amaranth fingerboard offers a 12"–16" compound radius (304.8 mm to 406.4 mm), balancing open–string playability with lead work. A single covered high–output Jackson® humbucking pickup feeds into a solitary volume control, paired with a Jackson® HT6 string–through–body hardtail bridge and sealed die–cast tuning machines. Black nickel–plated steel strings come factory–fitted at .009–.042 gauge.
This limited run includes a dedicated Jackson® gig bag (part number 2991511106) for transport and storage. The guitar suits players prioritising simplicity in signal path and maximum output clarity for high–gain amplification, particularly those chasing collectible instruments with purpose–built finishes that double as conversation pieces.
