Jackson Legend Series Limited Edition Signature Marty Friedman Kelly KE-1

At the heart of the KE-1 is an alder body paired with a three-piece maple neck-through-body construction, reinforced with graphite for enhanced stability and sustain. The ebony fingerboard features a 12"–16" compound radius, pearloid sharkfin inlays and 24 jumbo frets, creating a fast, comfortable playing surface suited to intricate lead work, wide bends and technically demanding passages. The 25.5" scale length provides the familiar feel and response expected from a professional electric guitar.

A Seymour Duncan JB TB-4 bridge humbucker delivers powerful output, tight low-end response and a punchy, articulate midrange, making it ideal for everything from aggressive rhythm playing to soaring solos. The straightforward master volume control keeps the focus on performance, while the Kahler 7330 Series fixed bridge provides a stable, dependable platform. Black hardware, Jackson-branded tuning machines, a graphite nut and the pointed six-in-line headstock complete the design.

Combining the distinctive Kelly body shape with signature details inspired by Marty Friedman's original instrument, the Jackson Legend Series Limited Edition KE-1 is an exciting choice for metal players and collectors alike. Supplied with a Jackson KE-1 foam-core case, it offers an iconic signature design with the construction and playability required for serious performance.
