Imagine that you could just flick a switch to go from electric guitar to acoustic guitar, or blend both for new creative sonic options. The Michael Kelly Hybrid Special gives you all of this in one instrument! This Hybrid gives you potent electric guitar performance, with Rockfield pickups for great electric guitar sounds, a push/pull volume control to allow you to split each humbucker for a single-coil tone, plus a Fishman® Powerchip & pickup that adds a big acoustic tone to your options!
Michael Kelly Hybrid Special Semi-Hollow Electric Guitar with Acoustic Tones
Quickly switch from powerful electric guitar tones to big acoustic guitar sounds, with just the flip of the switch. That’s what makes the Michael Kelly aptly named Hybrid Special so special!
Check out the demo video below to see how it works. You’ll love how versatile it is, plus how great this instrument sounds.
A Fishman Power Chip & Fishman under-saddle pickup is the source of the Hybrid Special’s acoustic tones, and its controls include a master volume located below the bridge along with a three-position toggle switch for selecting electric, blend or acoustic settings located on the upper bass bout.
FEATURES:
INTEGRATED FISHMAN POWERBRIDGE ELECTRONICS
The active Powerbridge system by Fishman® provides amazing acoustic tone. Utilising a Y-Cable will further enhance the Powerbridge capabilities too. Doing so allows you to send the electric guitar tones to your electric amp and the acoustic tone to your acoustic amp or mixer!
