Jackson JS Series Dinky Arch Top JS32 DKA - Satin Black

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.

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.

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.

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.

I'm not a regular player so I don't need a Fender - or a Cali/Mex professional Jackson. It feels like Fenders I have played - although that's been a very long time ago. I like it better than my old Gibson Les Paul . I live mostly in Central America and I know of Jackson as it was a primary for a lot of "Southern" bands. (that sung Spanish haha). This will be my daily driver when I'm in the States which is not a lot. If I like it enough I might buy one for the other place.

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.
