MJ Series Dinky DKR Basswood
Harkening back to the early '90s when import Jackson® guitars were manufactured exclusively in Japan, we introduce the all-new Jackson MJ Series - an exciting and innovative collection of instruments attentively crafted in Japan. The MJ Series combines Jackson's world-renowned legacy of designing high-performance instruments with an assortment of top-tier features at a competitive price point. Engineered from its inception for high-speed, virtuoso playing, the MJ Series Dinky® DKR features an ergonomically contoured basswood body with sculpted shredder's cut heel for easy access to the upper registers. The attractive five-piece maple/walnut/maple/walnut/maple neck is bolted-on to the body with graphite reinforcement for added stability against climate-induced warping and has an oiled finish on the back for smooth playability. Featuring rolled edges, 24 jumbo frets and pearloid sharkfin inlays, the 12"-16" compound radius ebony fingerboard is designed for highly technical lightspeed playing on the upper registers and comfortable chord work closer toward the nut. For touring musicians, Luminlay® glow-in the-dark side dots provide exceptional fretboard guidance even on the darkest of stages while a heel-mount truss rod wheel allows for quick and easy neck relief adjustments. Seymour Duncan® JB™ TB-4 bridge and Seymour Duncan Jazz SH-2N neck pickups deliver tonal clout. The bridge position roars with hot-rodded attitude and a powerful low end, while the neck position radiates with glassy treble tone and scooped mids that perform well across a multitude of genres. Harness the sonic horsepower with a versatile five-way pickup blade switch and single volume and tone controls. Other premium features include a Gotoh® GE1996T Series double-locking tremolo bridge system for reliable tuning stability throughout daring and aggressive playing theatrics, Gotoh sealed die-cast tuners and Dunlop® dual-locking strap buttons. Delivering classic Jackson attitude, the MJ Series Dinky DKR is finished in Gloss Black or Snow White with a color matched reverse pointy headstock and black hardware.
