Michael Kelly Hybrid 55 Electric Guitar With Fishman Powerbridge - Tiger Eye Burst
The beautiful Michael Kelly Hybrid 55 provides exceptional sonic versatility, with a combination of a Fishman Power Bridge Acoustic Pickup and Dual Rockfield Humbuckers. Switch between electric and acoustic tones, or combine the two. Coil tapping as well.

Exceptional Versatility
Flick a switch to go from electric guitar to acoustic guitar and blend the two for new creative sonic options with another flick. The Hybrid 55 gives you all of this in one instrument! This Hybrid gives you a potent electric guitar performance instrument. It has Rockfield pickups for great electric guitar sounds and our Great 8 mod to allow you to split each humbucker for a single-coil tone. The hardtail bridge is a Fishman® Powerbridge that adds a big acoustic tone to your options. This guitar does it all and does it really well. Lighten your load (one guitar instead of two) and increase your sonic options.

The 2 Output Option
Unlock the full potential of your MK Hybrid with a Y-cable. This allows you to send the signal from the magnetic pickups to one amp or channel and the signal from the acoustic tone to another. This lets you perfect your sound.

NOTE: Use of Y-cable is optional, use regular cable to a single amp or channel, no problem!

Sound with Style & Comfort
A Korina body gives the Hybrid 55 a sweet midrange with heightened responsiveness while a stunning flame maple top adds additional clarity for higher frequencies.  The "C" Profiled maple neck gives delivers a comfortable, contemporary feel, great for soloing and rhythm construction 

Versatility, Versatility, & More Versatility
Set with Michael Kelly’s Great 8 Wiring Mod, the Hybrid 55’s humbuckers can be each be split via push/pull knobs to deliver eclectic single coil tones. Just flip the switch to engage the Fishman Power Bridge and you will be immersed in an acoustic tone with serious clarity and warmth. Looking for something in between? Take that switch to the middle position for a dynamic blend of electric & acoustic. It’s no surprise that our Sam Ash experts think the Hybrid 55 one of the most sonically capable guitars ever created

Superb Playing Feel
The Modern "C" maple neck gives the Hybrid 55 a comfortable, contemporary feel. With a 10.5"-16" compound fingerboard radius, you can expect that this guitar will deliver an incredible playing experience whether you are soloing or playing chords.

Michael Kelly Guitars
