    • Love it. so well made for such an affordable guitar. the paint finish is flawless.
Color: Snow White
Review Image by Adi
I have loved jacksons since the 80's. finally decided to buy one. although the price is low, the quality of this guitar is high. The setup from the factory was quite amazing, perfect action, the frets are prefect: rounded, smooth, and flush with the edge of the fretboard...amazing My favorite was the paintjob, beautiful white and so many layers of laquer It would take a lot to dent/scratch it. ... show more

    • Hits way above its price point
Color: Snow White
I have a lot of high end guitars from Gibson, Fender, USA BC Rich, PRS, and higher priced Jacksons. This Jackson for a $179 hits way above its price point. Its has less flaws than my Les Paul standard and SG came with. The neck feels better than my $1200 Jackson King V. Intonation was really good. I was worried about fret sprout and was fully prepared to fil the frets. To my surprise it wasn't needed. The frets were pretty good out of the Box. The action was just right and ready to go. Then Fretboard seemed dry, so I took the strings off and oiled the fretboard and restrung it and it place really nice. The frets themselves could use some polishing, but that's to be expected on a guitar at this price point. The stock pick ups are actually not that bad and overall tone for those into rock and Metal is pretty good. The tuners work and the guitar stays in tune well. This could be a great first guitar that you can grow with. I would not hesitate to tossing some upgrades on this guitar. Maybe a better nut, and some locking tuners. This thing is hitting way above its price point. Lets hope Jackson keeps this price this way. Whats also cool about Jackson is it just says Jackson not something else to say its an affordable model. Like ESP does with LTD or Fender with Squire. So you could take this to a gig and no one would be the wiser that you are playing a very affordable guitar. ... show more

    • 10 out of 10 on the neck alone.
Color: Snow White
Overall the Jackson JS22 is a very well built guitar for the price. The neck is one of the best I've handled on a guitar in its price point or slightly above. For me, I'm not a fan of where the belly cut is on the 7/8th sized Dinky body, but, that neck felt like a dream. Fast and comfortable on the wrist. The stock pickups in it aren't bad all things considered. This guitar was definitely good to go out of the box, without needed any adjustment prior to play other than tuning. ... show more

    • Killer stock shredder for the price
Color: Snow White RFB
This Jackson snow white JS22 DKA right out of the box is killer, 3way blade nice and tight, volume and tone pots smooth, tunners was the most surprising, I didn't have to tighten them up at all with no slop and stays in tune, the jackson branded pickups sound pretty dam good, fret ends were awesome, fret job was perfect no high frets straight neck also a nice low action. I purchased this for a project guitar, I put full size 500 k pots, upgraded the switch, upgraded the jack, I have a push pull coul spliter I haven installed yet, the tunners I'm not going to change they work to good as is, I installed Seymore Duncan distortion mayhem set of pick ups, the bridge is putting out 16+, neck is 14+, definitely kicks ass big time. But for the price of $189.00 then tax came out to $202.00 with free prime shipping can't beat it. My upgrades were around $250.00 so for under $500.00 with Seymore Duncan picks along with the other upgrades I would put the guitar up against any $1500.00 guitar any day and it would smoke it. ... show more

    • Nice beginner guitar for the money
Color: Snow White
Review Image by Terry G. Clark
Just started playing guitar as a middle aged guy, was looking for something not very expensive but not a pile of junk either, glad I went the Jackson JS22 Archtop, nice guitar for the $200 I spent on it. It came nicely protected in its packaging, is built very solidly which should make it last a long time and sounds good as well. I hand oiled the back of the wood neck which comes kind of unfinished and it made a big difference, also had to dramatically adjust the truss rod, it was way off. Though the archtop certainly looks cool its a little hard to get an electronic tuner clipped to it but its possible (tuning was a little difficult but doable). The whammy bar has a nice design to it however I dont use it much. The Jackson humbucker pickups were at the right height and certainly sound pretty good, I paired the guitar with a Line 6 modeler amp and have been quite happen with how it all sounds. The strings are pretty standard fare but get the job done. Overall a pretty decent little guitar for the $200. TC ... show more

    • Whoever said this was a good guitar was mistaken. It is a GREAT guitar!
Color: Snow White
I love this Jackson Dinky JS22. I previously owned a Jackson Soloist Pro MIJ and I really liked the neck. So, I bought this. It is nice looking, has a good fit and finish, a super comfortable neck, and sounds like a champ. Out of the box, the setup was good. The only thing I would change is that the string height (action) is too high for me. The cool thing is that each string has its own height adjustment. I did put new .009 D'Addario strings on it (the stock ones sounded fine BTW) and added 2 more springs to the tremolo since I will never use it. After the strings were properly wound at the tuner and stretched, it stays in tune like a champ. I often play clean and the hot pickups give a nice overdrive tone. If you're really in to using the Tremolo bar, I would spend the extra bucks and get a JS32. It has a Double Locking Floyd Rose Tremolo, so it will stay in tune when you're beating on it. A few guys say that with the cost you wouldn't be heartbroken if someone stole it at a gig. But, I think I would be very sad. ... show more

    • This guitar may be my favorite yet (don't tell my other guitars)
Color: Metallic Blue RFB
How many guitars does a guitar player need? Just one more... That was me. I have a Les Paul, a couple of Strats and of course my acoustics so I needed to add one more to the collection (my wife did not agree that I needed another one, but she just doesn't understand I guess). I didn't want to spend a lot of money this time so I started looking at Jackson & Ibanez. This guitar may be my favorite yet (don't tell my other guitars). It lives up to it's name "Dinky". The neck is very user friendly for getting around quickly. The guitar is very light so playing it for extended periods doesn't give the back ache like the Les Paul does. The picture does not do the Metallic Blue color justice. The color is absolutely amazing. I would definitely recommend this guitar to anyone from the beginner to the seasoned veteran. If you want more options (which I kind of wish I had done now) the JS32 also has a single coil pickup between the humbuckers and a 5 way selector for about $50 more. This one is only the 3 way, but still works beautifully. If you see a negative review on this guitar, disregard and buy it anyway. You will not be disappointed. I for one can say that my least expensive guitar may be my new favorite and will probably get the most playing time. ... show more

    • Feels good, sounds good
Color: Snow White
I will say that you’ll probably need to mess with the intonation and action to get this guitar to sound perfectly on-pitch. But once you do that, it’s great and fun to play. People might diss the pickups, but here’s a secret: in a high-gain studio environment, they do not matter. When EQ’d and multitracked right, this guitar sounds literally identical to the $1k+ ones they sample in Kontakt libraries when put through the same chain. ... show more
