Got mine, new DK2XR, army drab with reverse @ $399 + tax. free ship MF. 12/31/23. i play it daily and love it , so comfortable where my forearm rest. Have two other dinky rev I keep in diff tuning, but this is my go to in std tune. great review , thanks!

[@mattdylan664]

I really wish Jackson would be more transparent about their high outpick brand pick ups because as you stated on paper whether you are buying a $159 JS11 or a $799 X Series KEX KELLY all we know about the pick ups is that they are Jackson® High-Output Humbucking (Bridge) Jackson® High-Output Humbucking (Neck) and thats it , but since when does any other company put the same pick ups in entry level guitars as they do in upper mid tier guitars?

Total 80s throwback, that guitar. I find locking tremolos a hassle but that’s just me. I know many people like them

[@benpowersguitar]

Oh yeah, total 80's nostalgia. I can definitely understand anyone not using a locking system, especially without someone showing you the tricks. Once you know the tricks to make life with a locking trem pretty easy, they are fun. I think the stigma and bs is far worse than the reality. I have 6 currently. That said, I always make sure to have a non locking system avail at all times, just in case.

can you make a video on the differences between the js series and the x series? I'm looking into buying either this one or the js32 dinky but I'm not sure if it's worth to spend the extra money on this one. Thank you.

[@benpowersguitar]

I can. So you know, they hardware and electronics are the same. The body shape, body thickness and neck shape are the main differences. I would say the X is a much better player, but get it on sale. Can find it for $350-$450 pretty regular.

[@hatecrewsix2]

X series uses the same woods, hardware and electronics than the JS32. what it changes is the production location, and the building inspection and many models have neck through. that changes the price. personally i prefer bold on. I agree with you. it's overpriced. the guitar is fine but the stock hardware and electronics are bad; people have to invest at least 500 dollars more in better one. the second hand market and somehow can save the day. in my opinion, DK2X you have cannot cost more of 500 dollars. maybe 550 with a nice paint job.

I wish Jacksons didn't have that reverse headstock. Sounds like you got another good one.

[@benpowersguitar]

They don't all have them. Honestly, it took me a while to warm up to them. Yeah, it's been a great guitar.

[@hudsondonnell444]

They are okay with a good locking tremolo, but I would prefer a standard headstock too.

[@JimmyHicks-v5n]

Paid $250 for a new one at guitar center on the clearance wall. Pretty much stole it, such a great guitar

[@benpowersguitar]

WOW! Yeah you did. I love mine.
