Jackson

Description

The Jackson JS Series Dinky JS32 DKAP electric guitar combines the aggressive attitude and fast playability that Jackson is revered for with incredible affordability. This sleek archtop beauty is built for metal, hard rock and shredding, with versatile humbucking pickups and a slick compound radius fingerboard that morphs from rounded at the nut to flat at the body for bar-bending licks. Topped with eye-catching quilted poplar burl, it looks as lethal as it sounds.

Dual Jackson Humbuckers Deliver Versatile High-Gain Tone

The JS32 DKAP wields a pair of Jackson's own scorching hot humbuckers, erupting with thick, saturated crunch that covers the entire spectrum from vintage '70s hard rock to the heaviest modern metal. The ceramic magnets pack tight lows, snarling mids and searing treble into one vicious sonic punch. Dial in your tone with individual volume and tone knobs, selecting either or both pickups with a 3-way toggle switch. From warm cleans to face-melting distortion, this versatile pickup configuration equips you for any gig.

Compound Radius Fingerboard for Comfortable Shredding

Shaping chords and ripping solos is second nature on the JS32 DKAP's slick compound radius amaranth fingerboard. It starts out rounded at the nut for comfortable rhythm playing, then flattens to 16" near the body for easy bending and wicked fast leads. Jumbo frets also enhance playability, providing a wider surface area for precise fingering. The thin C-shaped maple neck offers smooth, fast motion up and down the 24 frets.

Arched Poplar Burl Top with Jackson Style

Topped with gorgeous quilted poplar burl, the JS32 DKAP turns heads with exotic wood beauty while the arched top enhances resonance and sustain. Oozing with Jackson attitude, its sharkfin inlays, signature headstock shape and black hardware exude bold style. Available in eye-catching Transparent Black and Transparent Black Burst finishes, it looks as deadly as it sounds.

Floyd Rose Bridge Keeps You In Tune

Dive bombs, flutter tremolo and wild whammy tricks are no match for the licensed Floyd Rose double-locking tremolo bridge. It provides fluid tremolo motion while keeping the JS32 DKAP tuned perfectly even under heavy abuse. Combined with its resonant tonewoods, hot pickups and shred-ready feel, this Jackson guitar gives you everything you need to play fast and aggressive on a working musician's budget.

    I love the Floyd Rose Tremolo models from Jackson. However this model has sharp edges on the ends of the metal frets that need to be filed and smoothed so that they don't cut or irritate flesh when moving fret hand up and down the neck. I bought a 350.00 Jackson (string through body) about 15 years ago from Musician's Friend, and the quality of that Guitar is better than this new Jackson for close to 600.00. The Jackson pickups of today are not as good as the EMG pickups on my older, cheaper Jackson.

  • Solid guitar for the money

    I picked this up from the store last week, and it only needed a little setup out of the box. The Floyd Rose is an OEM Floyd Special — not bad at all. It stays in tune well, though I'll probably upgrade it down the line. The pickups are fairly hot and sound decent after I adjusted the pickup height for better clarity. For a budget guitar, they get the job done. The neck is excellent — smooth, comfortable, and easy to play. The fretwork is also nicely done, which really adds to the overall feel. My only minor gripe is that the volume knob is a bit stiff, but that's an easy fix. Overall, I'd give it a solid 4 out of 5. It's a great guitar with plenty of potential for upgrades.

  • Great guitar

    This guitar rocks, it has high output humbuckers and a slim neck. It's easy to use and I love it.

  • It's a good guitar if you put money into it

    This guitar is great, rather beginner Or an advanced player. The neck plays fast And it has a great low action feel. It looks killer, it's not too heavy And it has A Floyd rose. One of the best things about these guitars is you can customize them with different parts. The only cons of it Is the pick ups are a little gritty But those can always be swapped in the future, Which is what I plan on doing Other than that and the complication of the Floyd Rose…. lol, this is a solid guitar all around

    Pickups did not have a warm enough tone and depth as expected. My husband was disappointed. So I'm returning it tomorrow. My husband is a professional player and music producer.
