Don't know if this is already mentioned....

You can read the story here: http://www.martyfriedman.com/info_archive_detail.php?id=8&det=259


and the auction is here: http://shop.ebay.com/dvamp2u/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=25


a nice move imo.

@ #2. I'm a HUGE Marty Friedman fan, but I would not want to dish out thousands of dollars for a broken guitar. I get that it goes to charity, but still. Damn, I wish had a few grand to drop on one of these Kelly's. I used to get a raging hard-on as a teenager staring at these guitars in my Jackson catalogs wishing I could own one someday... and now that I can afford decent guitars, they don't make them anymore. FML

btw #5...

 

[Lowberg]

Aw man, that's so cool. I would kill for his kelly with the body binding.


And you're right its unfortunate Jackson has been on the decline. The really nice ones are like 2,000 now, and still some people say the newer USA ones aren't as good as the old pre fender ones (i cant tell the diff)

Wish i had money too for one of the kelly's.

I bought a pick instead

 

[LeSedna]

Wow I would dream of this kelly, it's such a symbol for me....

 

[Clockwork]

Damn it, I have to bid on that bass.

The red one, is this the one from when he was in cacophony ?

The red one, is this the one from when he was in cacophony ?

Yeah, for the 2nd cacophony album and the Megadeth audition.

The red one, is this the one from when he was in cacophony ?

Yup!
Edit: Wait... looks like the one he used on this cover photo-shoot anyway isn't the same guitar since it has different frets. But I'm sure he had a couple models.

Also the same one he used in this video I have too
