NGD: Jackson KE1 Marty Friedman

This is my second one but I got it for stupid cheap, $700!

I always thought they had a kahler trem not fixed, but it's still pretty cool. Sorry for the artsy instagram pic, it's all i've got at the moment.

Sweet guitar man. The bridge looks cool, Ive always wanted to try some Kahler equipped guitars.

Excellent price, should be good guitar, congratulations!
Mustain KV of the same period also had fixed Kahler.

It's awesome! I had a KE1T and this one plays better. Much more comfortable neck.

It has thinner neck or what?
Wideness should be the same, only japan Jacksons had narrow necks.
Also this one should sound slightly differently because of true neckthru construction and poplar wings, unlike modern ones where neck goes only through upper half of body, the rest is alder.

Yup, it's thinner. Just played on it for a bit, nice guitar.

I still prefer my kv2's/rr with OFR.
