X Series Dinky DK1A
Distinctive and affordable, Jackson’s X Series Dinky® models are built for speed and comfort! The Jackson® X Series Dinky® DK1A DX is a venerable double-cutaway workhorse that offers many fine features desired by today’s shredders. This Dinky model features an ergonomically curved nyatoh body and bolt-on maple neck with graphite reinforcement for rock-solid stability and tilt-back scarf joint headstock. Hosting 24 jumbo frets, its 12”-16” compound radius amaranth fingerboard curves more dramatically at the nut for easy chording and flattens out as it approaches the neck joint for low-action bends without fretting out. Jackson high-output humbucking pickup and rail-style neck pickup power this metal beast with full-bodied tone ideal for brazen lead work or assertive rhythms runs. A Floyd Rose® Special double-locking tremolo bridge system provides superior string stability and dynamic tremolo action.
