Jeff Loomis has seared his mark on multiple subgenres of metal with his smooth technique at breakneck speeds. His rhythmical style became central to the Seattle-based progressive metal band Nevermore's sound, while his solo albums tore apart the technical metal scene and featured intricate fretboard skills laced with soaring solos. As the former guitarist for the world renowned Swedish melodic death metal act Arch Enemy, he continues to build upon his legacy with the most astonishing riffs the genre has ever heard.

Jackson's collaboration with the prominent guitarist continues in the form of the all-new Pro Series Signature Jeff Loomis Kelly Ash.

This aggressive signature axe features a basswood body with a sandblasted ash top finished in Black with white binding for a distressed and menacing look. Through-body maple neck construction creates grater sustain and includes graphite reinforcement for the utmost stability against the rigors and ravages of the road. Shaped for speed, its bound 12"-16" compound radius ebony fingerboard hosts 24 jumbo frets and stylish pearloid sharkfin inlays. Luminlay side dots will help you find your way along the fretboard even on the darkest of metal stages, while a heel-mount truss rod adjustment wheel makes for quick and painless neck relief tweaks.

Dynamic Seymour Duncan Jeff Loomis Signature Blackouts humbucking pickups give this metal monolith its roar of clear, articulate tones even when under the heaviest distortion. The neck pickup delivers smooth, glassy leads, while the bridge pickup sinks its teeth into more aggressive tones and sustain while maintaining its legato.

This metal behemoth's other premium features include a single volume control, three-way toggle switch, Floyd Rose 1500 Series double-locking tremolo bridge system, heel-mount truss rod adjustment wheel, Jackson die-cast tuners, Jackson's famed pointy tilt-back headstock and black hardware.

This EXCELLENT guitar went from Jackson to their authorized refurbisher MIRC, where it received a full multi-point inspection and expert setup - it is ready to play!  The back of the headstock was stamped USED and the original serial number was replaced/covered with a new one.  

During shipping, this guitar was 'customized' by FedEx when they dropped it and broke the headstock.  The headstock repair was done by Center Stage Vintage Guitars, and is solid.  You can clearly see the repair in the photos.  They also re-wired the original pickups and installed a new pickup selector switch. Other than seeing and feeling the headstock repair area, this guitar is in Excellent playing and cosmetic condition.

Check-out the videos on YouTube and more information on the Jackson website.  This is a Great guitar at a Great Price!

Enjoy!
