JACKSON JS Series Dinky Arch Top JS32Q DKA Transparent Green Burst
Dinky electric guitar with high output humbuckers, quilted maple top and Floyd Rose Licensed tremolo
With the Jackson JS Series Dinky Arch Top JS32Q DKA, Jackson offers the agile Dinky Doublecut design as part of the affordable JS Series. The instrument is designed for shreds and juicy licks and offers functional features in the form of a patented Floyd Rose tremolo with locking saddle and powerful sounds thanks to the double Jackson high output humbucker. The JS Series Dinky Arch Top with its famously slim maple speed neck also offers the best conditions for perfect performances on the 24-fret amaranth fretboard.

Construction with fast neck
With the construction of the Jackson JS32Q Dinky DKA Transparent Green Burst, Jackson follows the classic specifications for a metal guitar and makes the body of the guitar out of poplar with an attached quilted maple top, while the bolt-on neck is made of maple and carries a fingerboard made of amaranth. Accordingly, the Jackson Dinky has a powerful, fat base tone with a fast attack, which is perfect for riffs and solos. In addition, the neck with its fast "Speed Neck" profile and compound radius offers an unhindered playability, which makes complex chords and riffs as easy to play as fast solos.
Jackson High Output Humbucker
The electrical sound conversion of the Jackson JS32Q Dinky DKA is done by two Jackson High Output Humbuckers, which impress with their powerful sound. Especially in the distortion channel, the pickups let their muscles flex and present riffs and solos with tight precision and an assertive midrange spectrum that pushes every note through the band sound even during drop tunings. But the pickups are also convincing on clean amps, where they transport melodies and chords with harmonic string separation and crystal-clear articulation.
Floyd Rose Licensed Tremolo
Last but not least, the Jackson JS32Q Dinky DKA Transparent Green Burst is equipped with a Floyd Rose Licensed Tremolo, which works with absolute tuning stability thanks to the double locking construction. No matter if Dive Bombs, Squeals or aggressive Whammy Bar Attacks, the vibrato can handle any technique easily and impresses with a soft response. In addition, the headstock is equipped with precise Jackson die-cast tuners for precise tuning and smooth string changes.

The JS32Q HT is a surprisingly well made guitar for the 266€ music store is selling them. I was after a guitar with high output pickups to record some metal riffs, and was looking at Ibanez RG/RGA/S series, but the Jackson seemed to offer a similar package for less money so ordered the JS32Q HT Dinky.
Pros: - Well made - The maple top looks good and makes this guitar look like a high end one. - Light weight = can play standing for long hours without any shoulder/back pain - Stock Jackson pickups are surprisingly good, clear and tight. - Stays in tune well - Hard tail is much easier to live with than a cheap floyd rose
Cons: - The stock tuners are a bit flimsy and lack accuracy but they hold tuning well. - Factory strings are absolute rubbish.
All in all for 266€ this is a very good guitar and does the job perfectly!
