  • Whoever said this was a good guitar was mistaken. It is a GREAT guitar!
Color: Snow White AFB
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

  • Good Fast Neck
Color: Snow White RFB
I was prepared to put it on the bench to level and dress the frets after I received it but there was no need to. About 1/2 turn tightening of the truss rod and then lowering the strings a bit is all it needed to bring it to my specifications, and without any fret buzz. The neck overall is well done. The volume knob is at a well placed distance so my hand doesn't hit it while playing. I usually put Duncan SH-4's in my guitars but the pups in this guitar aren't bad. The tremolo throws it out of tune but I don't need it so I will just hard tail it. The intonation was spot on. The shape of the body and weight are very comfortable. I have 35 years playing experience, played Deluxe Strats, Gibson LP's, SG's, etc... and I like this guitar. If you want to use a tremolo I would look elsewhere but other than that this guitar plays great and is a real bargain. ... show more

  • GREAT guitar for the money
Color: Snow White AFB
This is my first Jackson that I own, I am a true to the heart Fender stat person, but the feel of the Jackson neck is as close to Fender as you can get. The shipping was very very fast and it came very well packed. I am very pleased and happy with this. Great Job!

  • Nice beginner guitar for the money
Color: Snow White AFB
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

  • 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

  • Keeps breaking
Color: Snow White AFB
The plate that holds connection where the amp plugs in to the guitar has come off half a dozen times. I had to quit my guitar lessons, because I was so far behind on practice from all the times the guitar was out of commission. It's currently broken again and this time, I'm not even sure where the nut and washer flew off to. It's a great beginner guitar when it works, I suppose. ... show more

  • Love this guitar. Bought two!
Color: Snow White AFB
Bought the black matte finish one several years ago, had so much fun with it, that I purchased another one in white! I've played guitar in the past and have owned some of the best. I decided fairly recently that I wanted to get back into playing again. I was really, REALLY apprehensive about purchasing a guitar online before seeing or playing it. I mean, who does that? But for $200 bucks, I figured it wasn't much to lose. I was totally surprised! This guitar is awesome! Sounds great for a variety of music styles and found it to stay in tune. Can't go wrong on this buy if you're just starting out or if you're a mid player looking for a back up. ... show more
