Тhe Jackson X Series DINKY DKAF7 is a decent affordable 7 String Multi scale Chug Machine

DISCLAIMER: This is not a sponsored video, the guitar was given to me by a friend for a review. It is a honest review and represents my personal opinion about this guitar.
The 2021 Jackson X Series Dinky DKAF7… oh god these names… damn you IBANEZ… is an affordable multi scale 7-string. The quality is ok, but the hardware/electronics could use an upgrade and the fretwork needs to be checked by a guitar tech. It is a decent guitar at a price that you can live with to find out if you need a 7-string Multiscale at all.

How do you raise the bridge on this? I got a lil fret buzz in drop g I adjust the trus rod but not sure how to raise the bridge individual saddles

[@GeorgeVGuitars]

You raise the individual saddles with the two screws on each saddle. Just make sure you don't mess up the radius they make.

[@jimmyjames5658]

@@GeorgeVGuitars hey appreciate the response :) i raise each saddle i made sure i turned the 2 screws equal amounts. fret buzz is gone! Thanks for the help, but what do you mean by Radius? im not sure what tht is and would like to check it

[@bliptripmusic]

@@jimmyjames5658 He means the way the strings follow the curvature of the fretboard. He talks about radius at 10:20

[@qezeq]

is this guitar suitable for live performance? read it somewhere that the pickups are microphonic, how "microphonic" are they?

[@GeorgeVGuitars]

Unfortunately I cant tell you that, havent tried it on stage. If the pickups are your concern you can swap them.

[@KarstRats]

They are terrible. Couldnt even practice with this guitar until i changed pickups. The squealing was 100% uncontrollable and would happen at ANY volume level. Just get the pro with emg type pickups. You wont regret it.

[@AussieThrash]

@@GeorgeVGuitars I assume I can swap them out like anything else, blades aren’t some special shape or anything are they?

[@koki_taratorcho]

Mega ultra cool

🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻😳

[@purity6sic6mc]

Yea... Im sticking with my Ibanez guitars

[@KarstRats]

If you get this guitar set up with non microphonic pickups its a fucking beast. But yeah. They shipped it out as a squeal box… kinda dissapointed but it was a factory blem discounted guitar so i got the 700 dollar guitar for 400 bucks brand new. Left a lot of room for improvement.

[@GeorgeVGuitars]

Yep

[@KarstRats]

Mine shipped out and the pick ups are microphonic… pos

[@GeorgeVGuitars]

Yeah I wasnt a huge fan of them
