"heavy metal maniacs!"
Feature:
pretty standard, except some come with a locking tremolo that can be a pain to tune. the floyd rose seems to keep everything in tune, except you might have to raise the action a little on it if you are going to play drop C or lower. some loose parts when you get them, but nothing vital.

Quality:
probably the best brand I've come across. very well built and sturdy enough to last someone a lifetime. all hardware right down to the knobs are metal. they have a really tough coat of paint on the body and the hardware thats colored. Basically everything is well built and hard to wear out.

Value:
whatever price you buy it for you'll have to spend double to find another guitar thats just as good. double the quality for half the price.

Desirability:
i've been wanting a jackson for a few months now. But i just got one cause of the wayit plays not so much how it looks. but it does look pretty awesome.

Sound:
if you like heavy metal this is the brand you want. the pick-ups are very sensitive to the slightest nudge of a pick. no static sounds from them either. very high quality distortion pick-ups, cause thats what jackson is about.

Ease of Use:
the jumbo frets will make it easier for anybody to play. a short neck so you don't have to stretch so much. THE ACTION IS EXCELLENT! the strings run really close to the fretboard so a soft touch will do for fretting. the smooth frets make it easier to slide around.

Support:
have had a bit of trouble

Overall:
i would buy another one just to have it.

Jackson DKMG Dinky Guitar Customer Review
Feature:
The EMG's are perfect, the floyd is awesome once you get use to it. I love the inlays of this guitar and the neck plays very smooth and fast.

Quality:
I personally bought mine blemished cause it was a cheap deal, after receiving it I found nothing wrong with it apart from a loose knob and strap lock, the finish on the guitar is flawless and beautiful, and after a quick tightening it was in perfect condition.

Value:
For the price, you wont find better. It's gig worthy and will last you a lifetime. I've played guitars over 3 times the value that could not match even half the quality.

Desirability:
I'd hit it

Sound:
This guitar is just amazing. I've owned it for 8 months now and it has never let me down. The active EMG's sound beautiful even on a crappy amp, and have great sustain.

Ease of Use:
Very fast neck, harmonics are a breeze, tremolo is simple to learn to use.

Support:
I've had nothing wrong with this guitar and it was delivered very fast. But seeing as Jackson and Charvel are now owned by Fender... Not gonna bother with any support if something goes wrong. Fender takes to many shortcuts to produce half assed stuff and overwhelming prices.

Overall:
I plan to keep this guitar for the rest of my guitar playing life. Jackson is without a doubt my favorite type and clearly the best. If anything happened to this guitar, I'd buy the same one, no questions asked.
