Started in 1999, Michael Kelly Guitars has always taken a unique path.

The focus has always been to start with sound and top it off with a bold, boutique-inspired appearance. Musicians were drawn to Michael Kelly's decidedly custom appearance and then fell in love with their sound and performance. To this day, Michael Kelly remains focused on their vision statement to be "Built On Sound" and each time they put the cherry on top by giving the musician a bold look. Michael Kelly will continue to be the brand of choice for those that prefer something more boutique and unique.

The 59 Thinline strikes all the right chords both visually and sonically. The semi-hollow body design combines the warmth of a hollow body and the sustain of a solid body guitar. The Rockfield® P90 pickups have the twang of a single coil but with mid-range bump for a warm, thick tone that when combined with the semi-hollow body, give the 59 Thinline a striking sonic character. The rock maple neck with roasted jatoba fingerboard and its modern c-shape profile make the 59 Thinline comfortable and easy to play.
