"Beautil Guitar Well Worth The Money, Perfect for All types of musicians"
Sound: Great for any style of music, me personally I'm into metal, and it's perfect for it. Its got a nice harsh sound using the right setting, this guitar can do anything you need it to do. Best Guitar I've ever owned. Feature: The turbo emg pickups are great especially if you need an extra boost when you are doing a solo. Quality: The body it great I see nothing bad with this guitar, I would buy another if something happened to mine. Value: Great guitar, well worth the money. Manufacturer Support: Haven't needed to talk to them yet. Everythings has been great with this guitar. The Wow Factor: the curve of the body is beautiful, smooth lines and a beautiful archtop perfect if you wanted to get it painted, brings out all the colors perfectly. Overall: I've had this guitar for a little over 6 months. there is nothing I dislike about this guitar. I would definately buy another. Jackson makes great guitars for all differents styles of playing and would recommend them to anyone.

"It's beautiful."
Sound: Wow... I was taken aback by the sound of this baby. I plugged it into 3 different heavy distortion pedals: the Boss MT-2 Metal Zone, the Digitech XMM Metal Master, and the DOD Death Metal. GOOD GOD I LOVE IT. It was so unbelieveably heavy- the EMG HZ passive pickups just scream. They're amazingly quiet for passive pickups. It had a decent clean sound, but it wasn't very warm, which I've heard in some other reviews. But if you mess with the tone and volume and such, and with your amp, you can get tons of great tones out of this baby- both clean and distorted. It sounds great with the Crate BX-15 bass amp for some reason. The EMG Turbocharger active gain boost is good, too- it doesn't kill your sound when you switch it on, and it doesn't add any excess noise, like if you would have used a pedal for the gain boost. If your looking for a guitar with active pickups, just replace the EMG-HZs on this one with EMG-81s or EMG-85s. Feature: This guitar has the typical "Jackson feel". It has a really thin neck that plays awesome. Like I said before, the EMG Turbocharger works great- I'm glad Jackson added that feature. Only real problem I had was the tremolo. It stays in tune really well, but its kind of a pain to string up and tune. I guess it's really a matter of patience. The DKMGT doesn't have a tremolo though, if you like a string-thru tailpiece rather than the double-locking Floyd Rose. Quality: God, it's built to last. Even the paint is difficult to chip. I recommend getting it in Satin Black though, if you're gonna treat it rough. Value: If you can get it for less than $470 then you have a great value. It's overpriced otherwise. Manufacturer Support: Fender is really great when it comes to handling problems, but there shouldn't really be any with this guitar. If you need to contact them, its only because you want to thank them! The Wow Factor: Jackson just makes sexy guitars. It also has a carved top, so it looks a bit better than the DXMG. Plus its got the black hardware, covered EMG-HZ pickups, and comes in lots of cool finishes. Overall: Again, the damn tremolo. I should've bought a DKMGT. That's the only reason I'm not giving it a 10 here.
Style of Music: Everything except pop- but you wouldn't play that on a guitar like this anyways!
