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

  • Perfect
I have multiple $600+ guitars, and I still find myself picking this up constantly. Everything about it the build quality, sound, appearance, perfect. Could use a setup maybe.

  • 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.

  • Amazing guitar but arrived damaged
This guitar is great for beginners like me. It’s very comfortable to play and is an amazing starter guitar for the price. However, when it arrived a couple parts of the wood were chipped. Kinda bummed but it is just cosmetic damage as the guitar still works perfectly fine.

  • Love the neck, great playability, pickups a bit too hot for me.
So I love the neck on this thing, wider top to bottom, so the stings are spaced more like my acoustic (Martin Dreadnought), but it's thinner front to back, giving good reach. I can play it well, without my fat fingers muting or otherwise trampling the adjacent strings, and my 15 year old niece loves the spacing and is able to play all her chords easily. The pickups are a bit hot, as they are intended to be, but not a plus for me. I shouldn't even mention this, but I noticed at some point a stain on the back finish, and an not sure if I caused it or if it was there already, but it's highly possible that a did it after it arrived so I can't mark it down on that. All in all, its a great lightweight guitar, after it's been setup properly, and I recommend getting some new strings because the one that come with it have a tinny tone. So.. Like to play riffs with distortion, here's your guy. Like truer sound, still I good guitar, just swap pickups and strings. I gotta find a neck like this for my Schecter. ... 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
