Description

Experience Jackson Speed and Fury The Jackson JS22 Dinky solidbody electric guitar was made to create sonic mayhem. The amazingly affordable JS22 Dinky serves up massive tone and killer sustain courtesy of its arched basswood body, tremolo tailpiece, and two high-output ceramic humbuckers. You'll appreciate the playability of the maple speed neck and fat-fretted, compound- radius amaranth fingerboard that allows you to transition more easily between rhythm and lead playing. Whether it's your first electric guitar or you're simply looking for a great value, you'll be impressed with the Jackson JS22 Dinky.Jackson high-output pickups deliver aggressive tone Looking for rock- solid metal tone? The Jackson JS22 Dinky delivers. That's because Jackson equips the JS22 Dinky with a pair of their custom-built ceramic-magnet humbuckers. These high-output humbuckers give you plenty of punch and serious bite whether you're plugging into a tube amp or using amp modeling. We've played a lot of guitars at

  • Jackson Black Matt Electric Guitar - A Game-Changer for Left-Handed Players!
Subject: Jackson Black Matt Electric Guitar - A Game-Changer for Left-Handed Players! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ As a 50-year-old disabled individual, I recently embarked on a new journey by picking up the Jackson Black Matt Electric Guitar, priced at an unbelievably reasonable $199. Let me start by saying that this guitar has exceeded all my expectations and has become an absolute game-changer for me. Being a left-handed player now, I had the strings turned around to suit my abilities. The transition was made even smoother by the fact that the low E string was notched in on the neck, preventing any sliding issues. This small but thoughtful adjustment made a significant impact on my playing experience, and I am immensely grateful for the attention to detail by my bro Kolo. The Jackson Black Matt Electric Guitar not only looks sleek and stylish but also delivers an incredible sound. The build quality is outstanding, and it feels sturdy in my hands, providing a comfortable playing experience. The craftsmanship is evident, and it's clear that this guitar is designed for both beginners and experienced players alike. Paired with the Fender Champion 20amp amplifier, my jamming sessions are set to reach a whole new level. I can't wait to rock out with my bass player daughter, creating music and memories together. The combination of the Jackson guitar and the Fender amp is a match made in musical heaven. For anyone considering a budget-friendly yet high-quality electric guitar, the Jackson Black Matt is a fantastic choice. It's opened up a world of musical possibilities for me, and I'm excited to continue learning and improving my guitar skills. Kudos to Jackson for creating such an awesome instrument, and here's to many more rockin' moments ahead! 🎸🤘⚡ ... show more

  • It’s nice
Set up from box was pretty much perfect, even the tuning was almost perfect. Finish was flawless, it plays great for what it is. Not quite as nice as the esp I’ve had. Overall it’s a nice guitar I have nothing bad to say about the sound or craftsmanship. For the cost I don’t see this being a bad decision for a first guitar or beginner status final thoughts——- I would purchase this js22 over a fender or a Ibanez, only thing I may do is upgrade to some locking tuners. However. I’ve played the Jackson for a few days and.it has stayed in tune almost spot on. Happy with the Jackson js22 in satin black. ... show more

  • Great guitar. Especially for the price.
The guitar arrived two days early, which was nice. It was securely packaged and arrived in perfect condition. The neck is slick and easy and it came intonated. The body is very clean, absolutely scratch free and feels great. The pickups sound pretty hot but you can dial it down a bit to jam to anything really. The electronics are all very sturdy and no buzz or hum. It's a great guitar for a beginner or for someone who likes swapping out parts. This guitar is the Honda Civic of guitars. Tune as you wish. But keep an eye out for Toretto. ... show more

  • AMAZING GUITAR
I play on my guitar everyday and I love it!

  • I'm glad i bought it.
This is the 6th guitar I have and maybe the 9th I've ever owned. I bought this guitar cuz I like the Jackson compound radius neck (I have an RR1) and its super cheap and I wanted a guitar just for always being tuned down 1 whole step (DGCFAD) Well I got it 2 months ago and yes I love the neck, the tuners however are pure crap though. The tremolo rests on the body tightly and even never touching the tremolo bar the things out of tune as soon as you touch the strings for more than 2 minutes. I was no lie CONSTANTLY adjusting the tuning. Made me regret buying it a little but I bought some decent ($45) locking tuners and swapped them out and the difference was night and day. I frigging love this cheapo guitar now with locking tuning pegs! The pickups are bottom of the line I'm sure but I don't know what they sound like as this is just a knock around practice guitar and I'm (no lie) yet to plug it in for the first time. I'm assuming they work lol. If they dont I'll replace them too. So in my opinion buy this good looking guitar (I love the look and feel of the satin flat black) and be thankful that it's super cheap but know you have to spend another $45 or so and put in some good locking tuners. Probably great for beginners. The locking tuners I bought to replace the ones that came with it are "Guyker" brand. They say "Professional" on them. They were about $45 I think. They were an exact match - just take the Jackson ones out and replace. No drilling or woodworking required. Super simple. ... show more

  • Insane value
Excellent ergonomics and playability. Love the arched top and compound fretboard. Strat style trem works well and the tuning stability is pretty good, not perfect but I'd say an 8/10. Phenomenal playing and sounding guitar, I bought this specifically for when I'm in the mood for metal and high gain and it's a perfect addition Only slight drawback would be that the trem arm attachment is too loose for my taste and can come detached accidentally still working on a fix. Overall if you want a lightning fast shredder that lives for heavy jams and pinch harmonics go for it ... show more

  • Best value for the money, IMO.
I bought this for my daughter for her first guitar. She absolutely loves it! It sounded really good, even right out of the box. I really don't think there's a better guitar of this style in this rice range.

  • Great guitar!!!
As a former luthier I know my way around guitars. I've owned high end and low end guitars. This is definitely priced as a low end but quality is definitely midrange. Craftsmanship is on point. The negatives are what they always are on cheap guitars. Tuners suck, volume and tone pots are cheap, pickups are budget, and the nut is plastic. So instead of spending the money on a higher tier one you can just upgrade it with all the parts you want. I know for me I would be upgrading the higher tier one so for the money this is a much better option. The frets had quick level. It's playable but I would recommend a good fret level and polish. The setup wasn't the best so it's something I would also address and these are also things typical to the price point. Sometimes the only difference between these and the top ones is hardware and a quality fret polish and setup. I definitely recommend getting this one. ... show more
