Michael Kelly Guitar Company has announced that they have begun shipping the all new Patriot Black electric guitar. The single cut, set-neck Patriot Black was designed to growl with heavy tones that are at once dark and at the same time full of articulation and definition.
The Patriot Black.
Michael Kelly specified direct-mounted Rockfield Fat Ass humbuckers to deliver this signature mix. These pickups feature custom designed bobbins that house larger pole pieces which increases the transfer of string vibrations from pulls, bends and leads, resulting in less tonal drop off and better note definition. The string-through-the-body design insures maximum vibration transfer, providing lasting sustain. Other notable features include Grover tuners, ebony fretboard and a mahogany body with a solid 1/2″ deeply arched maple cap.
Color choices are of course, Black and Black (gloss or satin).
