Description

Value-packed Jackson Performance The Jackson JS32 Dinky solidbody electric guitar conveys instant attitude both sonically and visually. The amazingly affordable JS32 Dinky serves up thick, snarling tone and prodigious sustain, courtesy of its resonant, lightweight poplar body, arched top, and two high- output humbuckers. You'll appreciate the smooth playability of the maple speed neck. And the fully bound compound-radius fretboard is great for chording down low, and bending up high without fretting out. A real Floyd Rose licensed double-locking tremolo bridge completes the package, making the Jackson JS32 Dinky a guitar any serious player can love.Jackson high-output pickups deliver aggressive tone Looking for rock-solid metal tone? The Jackson JS32 Dinky delivers. That's because Jackson equips the JS32 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

Very nice guitar for the money, And Good people to deal with.
Ordered 2, 1 for my Son & 1 for me. These are great beginner or intermediate guitars. Although they are an excellent value, they are also made in China and could have slight imperfections that nobody else will notice but the owner. After several conversations with the seller, we did decide to send one of the two back. The seller was very good in communication and very understanding. I was very skeptical to buy a guitar online & have it shipped. But they both arrived in perfect condition, well packed & boxed with form fitted foam & double boxed. Im no longer worried about shipping a guitar this way. If your on the fence about shipping a guitar, rest assured it will be well protected and pull the trigger. These are actually very well made guitars & worth the money. You wont find a better price on guitar with a licensed Floyd Rose Tremolo, and it is staying in tune. My Son is an advanced player & decided his was just not beneficial to him with a few minor imperfections his had. I was tempted at keeping his, but it made no sense in having 2 identical guitars. If your looking to to start playing guitar you cant go wrong with a Jackson Dinky, especially at this price. To top it off, this seller shipped these fast & in the best way possible without a hard case. They were also very understanding in the one being returned. I have been playing mine for a couple weeks now and really like it. Very happy overall with everything. You want to learn to play guitar at a low cost, this is the one for you. ... show more

Really nice out of the box
Well packaged and all it needed was a tune right out of the box. Then it was ready to go. It plays really nice and it's got that old school metal sound, look and feel that I was after. A really nice guitar for a good price.

I love this guitar. One of my new favorites in my collection.
Tremendous value and so much like new I believe it was. It's an awesome guitar. Love it. I'm very picky. This guitar did require work, for me. This is the norm though. I almost always find something that... In this instance, it was mostly the action at the nut. The strings were too high. I removed the nut and sanded the bottom down with a bench top belt sander while checking periodically with a digital caliper until it was a more appropriate height. If you don't know what you're doing, find a capable tech to do this for you. This one thing drastically improves the playability near the nut, especially things like a full F chord, or a Bm. There was one fret that was a tiny tiny bit high. It didn't really affect anything but my OCD, so it got fixed. The frets were more level than most new guitars and only one to make it perfect is unusual. Aside from this, there was nothing else to do but put new strings on (9's like it came with). The tremolo springs were adjusted properly, even intonation was good right out of the box. The string height needed a minor tweaking most players wouldn't notice. Tiny truss rod adjustment, again, not something most would notice. Plays wonderful. With just a little work it plays like a guitar four times the cost after a setup. Oh, it also stays in tune with trem use. No need to add a gizmo: like a tremsetter or blocks. ... show more

Awesome guitar, awesome action
I had played guitar years ago and decided to pick it up again. I bought a cheaper guitar and it was difficult to play because of the action. Decided to upgrade after just a week of the other one. WOW! This thing is awesome. The seller, Liberty Music, setup the guitar before shipping it out and it is just amazing. It included a signed checklist for all of the things inspected and adjusted. I used to have a PRS, and I swear the action on the Jackson is just as good. Big bonus - Liberty Music included lots of goodies! A hat, plenty of picks and probably some stuff I'm forgetting. It was very well packaged, especially compared to the cheaper guitar I had recently ordered. Lots of bubble wrap and an external box. My only complaint is that the bubble wrap left some weird little round spots on the front. A little elbow grease and it's gorgeous. Moral of the story; spend a little bit more and get a lot more. ... show more

Awesome
It is my first floating locking tremolo Floyd rose style and it does very well at keeping in tune. Unless you add a stabilizer though, you have to pull up a little after a dive to get it to reseat. I think even the original Floyd roses do that, not just these licensed versions. It was easy to learn on YouTube how to set it up but I did have experience setting up my hardtail bridges. I would say it's the perfect entry level Floyd rose style. I might upgrade to actual Floyd rose some day and upgrade the pickups to be hotter and more metal. I wouldn't recommend for a complete beginner because of the bridge system. But buy it used like new if you have the opportunity and you won't be disappointed.. It was brand new in the box. Plastic still on the the pickups and headstock. Original box and all accessories. Used like new is basically new. I signed up for Amazon credit and got this for 116 bucks after shipping with the discount so I am very happy with the purchase and have enough left over to maybe get a strat or a tele. Sweet. JS32 was a great choice. I love the neck. Almost like bare wood so smooth. I want a 7 string hardtail version. ... show more

Instrumentpro Used like New
If you decide to go with the "Used Like New" option from Instrumentpro, this may be useful to know- Visually, the guitar was brand new, no scratches, plastic was still over the pickups, manufacturers tag still on the headstock, etc. However, the volume pot was really stiff, so I suspected an issue, so I plugged it in and sure enough there was no output. I was putting in Duncan Invaders and I had some old pots laying around, so I went to work. Found the hot side of the volume was grounded out internally and after swapping it, installing the Invader, and setting the action, it sounds really dope and plays great. Note: the pot shafts needed are the longer ones. So, if you need to replace yours, don't try to use the shorter ones unless you want to deepen your cutout. Was it worth it? Hellz yeah. Around $100 less for the "used" one, which paid for the bridge pickup, and seriously, if you're swapping humbuckers, you usually want to put better pots and a cap in anyway. Very comfortable to play even though Jackson's necks are a little rounder than what I'm used to with Ibanez and ESP, but the tone is straight sick and sounds really aggressive and "tight". At the current rate of inflation, buy one now, spend a few bucks on upgraded hardware, and own a really great guitar at a budget price point. ... show more

Smokin deal
I was going to order new because I was hesitant about buying used. I saw their was a seller who was selling used like new. The price was $199.00 vs $369.00. So I decided to take a chance and bought it. I ordered the satin black finish. Well let me tell you how it went. The guitar arrived earlier than the estimated date. Plus one. The guitar came triple boxed and I can tell you it was still in all the factory packaging. I own a Jackson 22 dka in blue metallic and this one was packaged exactly as it was. Plus two. I inspected the instrument thoroughly and could find nothing cosmetically wrong. Plus three. All the hardware tags booklet etc… whammy bar Allen keys etc.. all present. Plus four. The only thing I could find that could indicate it had ever been handled was that the locking nuts on the neck were not tight and I could move them by hand. No biggie as I needed to tune it anyway. I won’t bore you with how it played.There are enough YouTube videos showcasing this model. In a nutshell I basically got a brand new factory sealed js32 for the same price I originally paid for my js22. Thank you instrument pro. I highly recommend this seller and in general this guitar. Again I saw in one of the reviews there was a problem with his knobs being in a bind or hard to turn. That must have been an isolated incident. Mine arrived free of any defects whatsoever. If you are hesitant about buying used or buying this guitar don’t be it’s an exceptional value. Even at its full asking price it’s worth it. ... show more
