"The best Jackson begginers guitar."
I dont think I will modify this guitar anymore before I sell it and if it was stolen Id be pissed because I bought it for $270 and thats a lot of $$$$$. But id probably buy an old les paul to replace it.
Sound
The sound from the Detonater HB10's have a thin American metal sound to them. The neck Pu is pretty good for soloing. The bridge PU doesnt sound so great so I replaced it.
Features
I really only use the volume knob. It has a tone knob also.
Quality
I think most Jackson guitars have poor quality finishes on their guitars. It is very easy to get dings, chips, and scrapes that don't come out even with buffing. This has happened notonly on my Warrior but also my Kelly. You have to be very careful with screwdrivers and sraps because Ihave made clearly noticeable dings and scrapes while playing and tuning the guitars. Also, do not even let this guitar fall at all. I had my another guitar fall on my warrior and the result was a huge chip all the way to the wood and the other guitar was less than a foot away! Its not all bad though. The liscensed floyd is pretty strong and so is electronics. however, my warrior has a crackling sound when turning the volume nob which sucks when I turn it.
Value
ALmost all electric guitars are overpriced and jackson is no exception. Jackson definately makes the best begginers and pros guitars and this Warrior is for sure a begginers guitar at an OK price. I suggest getting a used one for about half than at the store. Most Jackson guitars have very low resale value, especially the newer ones made overseas. Check ebay or type up ''used jackson electric'' on googe and you will find out.
The Wow Factor
Sweet looking guitar. Very verey sexy and devilish too. Black looks best on this guitar and so is mine black,.

"The Review You Wanted!"
I'm sure I'll probably always keep this beast, after 1yr. 9mo. with it, it's still the most playable guitar I got. If I where to replace this guitar it would have to be with another Jackson due to obvious metal mayhem they create. Even though I'm Gibson biased, for metal I'll take a Jackson from here on out. I knew what I wanted in a guitar & this one had all the specs I desired & lived up to them when I got it. (& for $475 WOW) Other brands were considered but for metal music & overall playability this was what I picked out & I'm still happy with it. Pick-ups are very sensitive & great for recording & improving your playing. I wish I would of discovered Jackson guitars 15 yrs. ago, maybe I'd be Jackson biased now. This is my first one so maybe I will be in a few more years. The JT500 tremelo is the best Floyd Rose bridge out there period. You got to do all to bridge set up when you get it but once thats done get ready to rock. Overall 9 out of 10 in this price range cause nothing is a 10 but Damn what a deal, unbelievable. I was looking for alot more expensive one but this had what I wanted for less "so the hell with the others."
Sound
9 out of 10 on sound cause nothing sounds to good. Overall the Detonator pick-ups are perfect for almost anything and great for metal. With almost no feedback at high volumes without an EQ and plenty of crunch to go around. Good sustain & clarity the 6th string "E" doesn't drown out higher notes when played with it. I Highly recommend these pick-ups for any guitar but lucky for us they come on this beast new already.
Features
Jackson JT500 tremelo is the BEST re-designed Floyd Rose Bridge EVER! (so far anyway)
Quality
Obvious tight manufacturing specs but the bridge was still slapped together. I had to do all the ajustments to it when I got it. No biggy it's nothing new to me. As long as there's metal it will always look good & is still working perfect & holding form after 1yr. 9 mo. & LOTS of use.
Value
Find out what you want in a guitar and if this has it, I don't think you'll find a better deal on any other guitar even a Custom Shop one.
Manufacturer Support
10 I guess I haven't needed any cause I'm not new to these things.
The Wow Factor
If your a true shredder you can already see it's got the right look & believe me the sound to match.
