Diablo Franchise

News April 24, 2026

Blizzard has announced a new collaboration with Jackson Guitars, releasing the Jackson Kelly™ Diablo® IV - Lord of Hatred Limited Edition—a Mephisto-branded guitar featuring the iconic visage of Diablo's Lord of Hatred on its front. The $1,300 instrument sold out mere hours after becoming available for purchase on Thursday afternoon.

The X Series Kelly guitar was posted to YouTube and made available for purchase simultaneously. Unfortunately, the timing proved problematic for interested Diablo fans—the guitar listing went live just before Blizzard's Developer Livestream and Official Blog announcement the following day, meaning many potential buyers may have never seen it before it was already sold out.

What Changed

The limited edition guitar represents a new跨界 collaboration between Jackson Guitars and the Diablo franchise. Key features include: Mephisto's visage displayed prominently on the guitar front, blood-red binding wrapping the body neck and headstock, custom red Diablo-inspired inlays, and a limited run of units that will not be restocked.

What This Means for Players

For collectors and fans of Diablo merchandise, this represents a missed opportunity—the guitar sold out before most in the community were aware it existed. The $1,300 price point positioned it as a premium collector's item rather than an accessible piece of merchandise. Those hoping to obtain one will need to monitor the Jackson Guitars website for potential restocks or check secondary market listings.

What's Next

It remains unclear whether Blizzard or Jackson Guitars will announce a restock of the limited edition guitar. Interested players should keep an eye on the Jackson Guitars website and regularly refresh to check for availability. Given the rapid sell-out, future collaborations between Diablo and Jackson may generate even more interest—fans should subscribe to official Blizzard channels to stay informed about upcoming merchandise releases.
