Jackson JS32-8Q Dinky 8-string electric guitar

General

This 8-string guitar with the catchy name JS32-8Q Dinky belongs to the JS series by Jackson Guitars. This beginner series is known for its excellent price/quality ratio and now includes this 8-string version. As this guitar produces a very fat and heavy sound, it's ideal for virtuosos, fans of the band Meshuggah or if you're playing in band without a bass player. This guitar has a basswood body that produces a nice, warm tone, and a top made of great-looking flamed maple. This gives the guitar great looks and a great sparkle in the high.
JS32-7Q Dinky: The sound
This guitar already produces a full, heavy and direct sound. This is accentuated by the two extra strings, making this guitar perfect for heavier music genres. It has a bolt-on mapleneck that has a rosewood fretboard with mother-of-pearl 'piranha' position markers. The fretboard has a compound radius which means that the curve varies along the length of the neck. As a result, you can more easily switch chords, play fast solo parts and bend strings. This nifty guitar has an enormous range, from a driving low to a screaming high.
