The Michael Kelly Guitar Co. 1962 Flame is a versatile solid-body electric guitar designed to bridge the gap between vintage elegance and modern aggression. Whether you are executing heavy, chugging rhythms or blistering high-gain leads, this instrument provides the tonal flexibility and ergonomic design required for professional performance. Featuring a striking flame aesthetic and a contoured basswood body, it combines a classic double-cutaway silhouette with high-output electronics to ensure you stand out both visually and sonically.
Key Details

- Coil-Split Versatility: A dedicated single coil-split switch allows you to instantly transition from thick, raucous humbucking tones to glassy, vintage single-coil sounds.
- Enhanced Playability: The iconic double-cutaway body design ensures effortless access to the upper frets for complex soloing.
- Tuning Stability: Features a two-point floating tremolo system, providing the perfect balance between dramatic dive-bombs and reliable tuning stability.

Use Cases
Hard Rock and Metal: Utilize the full power of the Rockfield PAF humbuckers for high-gain distortion, palm-muted riffs, and sustain-heavy leads.
Blues and Classic Rock: Engage the coil-split function to achieve the “spank” and clarity of single-coil pickups, ideal for clean rhythms and soulful lead lines.
Studio Recording: The wide tonal palette allows a single instrument to cover multiple sonic roles in a session, from atmospheric cleans to heavy walls of sound.
