This guitar is awesome..it plays so easy,and the factory setup is perfect,intonation perfect right out of the box,and Jacksons ceramic pickups in this guitar scream,from clean,to crunch,to high gain..they can cover all the bases..I usually swap out the pickups in all my guitars,but these sound incrdible,so they will stay in it..I would say to everyone,if you need a super budget friendly guitar that can truly do it all and then some,try one of these out !!

Fantastic guitar - was thinking of getting a PRS usa and changed my mind. I get every tone I want and the pickups are perfect. I thought about changing them - no need. Satriani Santana George Benson it plays it all. Sustain is a wow! The neck will make you a better player and is perfectly smooth with no buzz right out of the box. Only one bad thing is that this goes out of tune, so I'd like to change the tremelo to a better one with ball bearing potentially.

"Very good deal with "blemished" bargain"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
I bought this guitar as a "blemished" item, which cost me $199, which is $100 less than a new unit. Shipping was free, and I received the guitar within 3 days. Huge plus. The blemish turned out to be a very small section of the pointed end of the headstock chipped off. Otherwise, the guitar is like new. The guitar arrived not set up. I had to adjust the bridge height and tune the strings. Since this guitar comes with a flloyd rose type tremelo, the process did take some time. But important to note that prior to this, I have not played, much less owned, a guitar with double locking trelemo, and the entire set up process took me only 1.5 hours. All I needed was to view a how-to video on youtube, which is plentiful these days. So no issues there. Once set up, the guitar plays, sounds and looks very well. Well worth the money and time spent.

This is a great guitar for under 300. Love the sustain and holds tune very well. I'm sure higher dollar guitars play better but this one is really nice . Tuners aren't the greatest but not a problem since it locks and the fine tuners work great. Would buy another one for sure.

I'm a noob so this guitar was tricky to get used to. I had no idea what a floyd rose tremolo was, but I couldn't pass up on this beauty, got it in pavo purple, and man is it nice to look at. By the time I figured it all out, and was ready to play.... man oh man I fell in love. The neck is incredibly smooth, even though my talent level is beginner, it just feels fast, and I know as I get better I'm gonna be able to shred on this baby. Feels good looks good its everything I could wish for in a guitar

I've owned a few Jackson guitars and once again they didn't let me down, another great guitar. Well balanced, the Floyd work awesome and stays in tune!! The pickups sound pretty good for stock, but I'll be upgrading to some Duncans or Emgs soon. Has a really fast and smooth neck, definitely a shredder!! Great guitar with a Floyd for $300!!

Nice look fast play on fast neck. Great sound! This is my first guitar with a whammy bar that's why I bought a cheap one, But there's nothing cheap about it Feels good in my hands. Nice an light. The only problem I have with it is the whammy bar dosent stay tight where I want it. It gets loose. So I'm looking for a new arm,

Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
I've owned TOP SHELF Gibsons, Fenders, but now that I'm disabled and can't afford the Custom Shop stuff now, THIS GUITAR SHOULD COST JUST AS MUCH AS THE BEST Of What I Used To HAVE!! Plays, sounds, and looks killer! It doesn't FEEL like a piece of garbage - You know how you can always tell before you even PLUG IN. I love my Jackson, and I will NEVER let go of this Bad Boy. What really nailed it for me?...aside from the super low action, staying In tune even after dive-bombing the trem, and just plain feeling good in my hands. Usually, even with some "TOP SHELF" guitars, I Usually change out my pickups,...I Plugged in my new JACKSON DINKY,...sounded like it already had a set of Seymour Duncans in it!! So, take it from a guy who used to be able to buy some expensive guitars: This "SLEEPER" will hold its own against any Gibson, Fender, ESP, Schecter, I have ever owned!! Try one. Believe me, I LOVE THIS GUITAR! THANK YOU zZounds, THANK YOU Jackson!! HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!

The Jackson JS32 Dinky Archtop Electric Guitar is a great beginner to intermediate guitar as it sounds great with the Jackson Humbuckers for the price range. It not only sounds good, but easy to handle and play as well as nice to look at. Since I got it, I haven't touched my acoustic guitar as I am having to much fun playing my Jackson JS32.

I bought this with low expectations but it is a very nice guitar. sound and quality are excellent. great feel. and although I changed strings. the set up was dead on out of the box.I do not like the floyd rose style bridge. has a hard time staying in tune without bending on it. if you staying on standard tune it is ok..but back and fourth with different tunnings is a pain.

Guitar was defective. Could not get the chords to sound right. I believe something wasn't measured right . Kept getting high notes on e and a strind on 2nd fret. No neck adjustment or intonation adust would help. Don't know why I got the bad apple but I treid 4 days to setup and everything I tried the chords would never sound good due to high notes on 2nd fret, Maybe they didn't measure nut right. Or neck is not right. 1 star.
