JACKSON DINKY JS22-7 DKA HT!!!!

[@ianbouchardmusic7203]

I own one, and in my opinion, this is a guitar that is at least worth $700. Having to work a bit on it to make it pretty much perfect is a pretty good deal. In this day and age, $200 is nothing for an amazing 7-string guitar. 20 years ago a $200 6-string guitar was total garbage. this guitar is made for professionals.

[@MTD1976]

Agreed. I recently sold it to go back to 6 string. However I never had issues with it and it played amazing from the start to the end.

[@David-kw7df]

I just bought one, too. I will agree with everything said in the video. I had to adjust the trussrod, tighten tuners, intonate it, and did some fret work. That said, I have ordered new pickups and tuners. I may replace the bridge at some point. But I think the upgrades I'm doing so far will be fine.

[@PleaseForgiveYourself]

Love this model, I bought mine a few years back. Fucker shreds well and still plays like a gem. Best 200$ i ever spent.

[@mushyk96]

i just got one, im used to dirt cheap guitars, like 90 buck ones, and i just got one for my birthday just to record on and its nice af

[@KiLLJOY1056]

The Satin/Matte one with exposed pickups looks fantastic.

[@davidrapant6398]

It surprises me that the intonation on this guitar was off. I've bought 2 Jackson guitars recently. I ordered a Jackson JS Kelly without the trem and it was perfect out of the box. I've never purchased a guitar that had a perfect setup right out of the box before no matter how much i paid. I got a Fender Player series a few years ago that was horrible setup. The Jackson was so good I ordered an X Series Dinky that also came setup perfect. Right on the owners manual it had the string gauges and the action measurments that it was supposed to come with. I measured and it was spot on. The necks on these guitars are awesome. I'm getting the JS 7 string with the Maple fretboard probably. Hopefully it comes perfect as well. I can do my own setups anyways but its nice to get a guitar so close out of the box. IMO these Jacksons are the best quality for the money you can get these days. 20 years ago you couldn't touch a piece of garbage 7 string for under $400. I see one of these on sale for $158.00 brand new from Jackson Amazon store. It's ridiculous. I can't stop myself from getting it. The cons you mentioned at this price and quality are kinda mute points.

i was scouring the internet for a new VR headset... some how i ended up buying another guitar.. I have an addiction....Can't wait to play this guitar

[@joeypertee8461]

thats hilarious dude! i bought both in a span of 2 days. thanks tax return lol. already got the VR but the guitar comes tomorrow. im stoked!

[@MarsBarMinge]

Thats a fuckin gnarly guitar. Happy for you dude

[@MTD1976]

Thanks man

[@JayStew-o5f]

Cool! Cons aren't really that bad at all to me. I've had to do that basic set-up stuff to $800 guitars, so perhaps that's basic QC issues.

[@Chris-qg2fg]

Some nice BoltThrower vibes at the end!!!

[@myucussman]

The metal tubes where the strings are fed through the guitar are called ferrules

[@danadane2501]

Based on what you said about the intonation that's a major let down. I bought a Glarry 97.50 total delivered to door and it took me 3 minutes to get intonation perfect. I'm not kidding myself I know in a few years I'll definitely wanna upgrade. However this guitar looks and sounds pretty darn good other than what you said about that 20 minute fiasco.

[@Quinn1104]

yeah, i have the same js22 and trying to get it intonated in A standard was a nightmare. i found i had to take the spring off the saddle for the low .65 to get it close. even now its not entirely perfect, but i plan to upgrade to a hipshot bridge or something anyway so maybe it will make a difference.

[@themichaellaweraproject]

I just purchased the dinky today. Pretty excited.

[@Guitarninja79]

I wonder if the maple neck has the thinner neck

[@3kkousedflash246]

gf just bought me one love it !!!! also nothing waws lose at all however i did have to mess with action and intonation

[@quintonrouse542]

I got mine for $120 from a kid in Texas. I've had a few cheap 7s in the years of playing and this is the best budget one you can get. There are a few issues with the tuning pegs that's really it so far. I need to replace the saddles what would be the cheapest and best one I could get for it?

[@zacharyballard297]

That bridge definitely has four screws in it, there's two more on the inside

[@AVeryCrispyApe]

Got mind yesterday. Got it on sale last week on guitar center

[@jerryfick8547]

Great beginner 7 string. I hate the bridge. It shreds my damn hand up sometimes lol.

[@MTD1976]

Lol me too, I got used to it

[@Cremation_Frank]

Lol i was planning on selling my ibanez gio which is the same with the one in the background and buying a Jackson dinky js22 7

[@MTD1976]

Thanks!

[@achrafjohnny8765]

i would like to get one like this Jackson but im afraid to play 7 strings instated of 6

[@johnsmith970]

Go for it dude. I just bought one of these a few days ago to dip my toe and it's a lot of fun. It does need some setup and probably some better tuners but it's a hell of a guitar for $200.

[@jaxwar5763]

Had the same issue with the stock bridge. I ended up upgrading to locking tuners and a hipshot but still can’t intonate that low 7th. Any luck??

[@Jaloja]

Great video! Spank that Axe until it begs for mercy..

[@themasculinismmovement]

These are adjustments that anyone could make though right?

[@MTD1976]

Yes

[@aar0n357]

Hey how can i fix the input jack issue??? I've had to unscrew it and re-tighten it every single time i unplug the guitar... Every time i unplug it the nuts come off.

[@MTD1976]

Sounds like it’s stripped

[@aar0n357]

@@MTD1976 is there any real way to fix that? I even bought new input jack nuts abour a month ago and they're giving me the exact same issue.

@@aar0n357 gonna need to solder in a whole new jack

[@aar0n357]

@@MTD1976 oh damn, I'll have to research how to do all that then. Thanks for the help man! What pisses me off most about this is that I bought the exact same guitar again cause the old one was so broken but they both had the input jack issue 🤦 shoulda just bought a more expensive 7 string lol

[@davidrapant6398]

@@aar0n357 These input jacks are always a problem on most guitars. Get one of those thin washers that have the edges on them and that will keep it together better. The problem probably isn't the jack part. It needs a washer.
