Jackson 7 String JS22-7 Demo
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- Here's a demo of a Jackson JS22-7 I recently bought. The guitar is all completely stock straight from a local music shop. Great guitar for the price!
Using Podfarm 2.0 and Steven Slate Drums
I have since installed a Seymour Duncan Pegasus and Sentient set but the audio is the stock Jackson pickups.

Hope you like it!
Finally, someone demoing this guitar that can actually play it
Djent all day long brother! ✌
@@ravendemo4980 I bought one a few months ago, and man.. it is a DAMN great guitar for the money. Probably just going to change the strings and call it a day.
@@nairblab4061 sick, I'm really thinking about it.
@@ravendemo4980 The cheap areas of the guitar are the accessories and maybe the frets. The bridge, volume/tone knobs and pots, tuners, all seem to be pretty cheap stuff. The frets are decent, but sitting next to my $1000 ESP, you can see not as much time and love went into the neck. The pickups are actually pretty good. If you've never had a 7 string and you're a little weary of shelling out the cash for one, I can't recommend this one enough. If you end up absolutely loving the world of 7 strings, then you can move up and get a more expensive one. That's how I looked at it, and glad I did.
@@nairblab4061 aright, I was kinda wondering. I've heard about some sharp frets before, but I know you can't expect the absolute perfect guitar (especially a 7 string,) for 200 dollars. However, I'm glad to here your pros and cons, thank you. 😁✌
Feel proud that this video convinced me to buy my first 7-string.
haha cheers man! feeling pretty proud ;)

Dude just from reading the comments below, Jackson should send you some cheques lol. Looks like a lot of people bought this axe because of this vid.
Not gnna lie, I'm grabbing one too lol XD
xXxiFvkxXx hahah yeah man it's crazy, i'm really happy that so many people like my demo. haha good to hear, you won't regret it :)
Me too! Mines in the mail currently 😃
@@ChosenXMosin almost a year with mine! good on ya m8s
6 years later, Jackson made another sale because of this video. Thanks a lot man, I can’t wait til it arrives
Make that 2. Mine arrived a couple of days ago. I ordered an ESP LTD MH-17 to try out too but the Jackson is the clear winner.
@Robbie Bailey He is not playing live. Recorded the audio with stocks and filmed with SD.
bought this guitar yesterday! best 200 dollars I've ever spent!
How's it holding up ?
Came for the review, stayed for the music \m/
Me too!

This video convinced me to get a Js22-7, and I'm so glad I did.
that's awesome, glad you liked it :)
Josh Lim
me to! i'm stil wondering though, how did you get the sound? it sounds amazing!
Thijs den Ouden When it comes to gain, less is more. Clean is heavy. You should only be using enough gain to get the chunk and harmonic density that you want. Too much gain results in a loss of overall tone and definition.
I love this guitar! I just made a cover medley and it plays killer! you can see in my channel if you like :D
Same I’m going to order one off sweewater today
It's amazing how good production can make a cheap instrument sound. Some peoples ear would never be able to tell the diff between this and a KM7. Well done dude. In this modern time, It's almost better to go cheap on the guitar and go big on production gear. I'll probably grab one of these. Looks worth having.
and this my friends is why I will always play a Jackson no matter what model.

@Tech Hybrid um, ok?
@@fbuiafdf i see schecter as comparable and epiphone as worse value wise than Jackson. Reason is the stock pickups, all i ever had in an epiphone were mediocre at best - nothing I'd want to record and try to get a good sound with post production tbh. Jacksons cheapest high output humbucker is really usable for recording imho and i recorded a lot of guitars in all kinds of price ranges from a cheap ass squier to a 70s masterbuilt prs so i think i might know a thing or two about how a clean guitar DI should look and sound like.
@@fbuiafdf I obviously wouldn't use a guitar that doesn't stay in tune to record something. In terms of nuts i think schecter are the only ones mentioned here with something usable installed out of the box. Electronics are always bad on guitars below lets say 500-600 bucks. Replacing them is kind of easy and cheap though so nothing i worry to much about. I was actually more focused on the sound and playability while being able to have a decent intonation. And atleast in my case all epiphones were horribly setup out of the box and i had a hard time getting those TOM bridges to intonate correctly plus dealing with those fat ass sticky glossy necks is horrible imo. Schecter is also on the chubby site but within reason. I mean i get it, some people just like Gibson type guitars but epiphones aren't a bang for the buck, atleast in my book.
Just bought this guitar today and as soon as i started playing i fell in love with this thing
Best demo for a 7 string because you really took advantage of the extra string in your playing but didn't ignore the higher end.
My JS22-7 is in the mail. Very well played, Josh!
this js22-7 has me speechless. truly. I'd love to hear from someone who has the 32-7 and the 22-7 and hear their thoughts on the differences. Jackson is on point as of late. I was for hard Ltd/Esp. for the longest but after playing a few Jackson's lately I see that they suit me and my playing style more than Esp/Ltds ever did. this demo/song was gnarly too, well played bro
The more expensive one is just flashier and has slightly better sounding pups. The reason i own both is i found buying the more expensive to be around the same price as the upgrades i would have installed. Its achilles heels are the pups.
This video cost me $200. Could not be happier. Love this thing ;-)
Thanks for the video!
I just learned this song by eyes and ears! Great song! its alot easier if use 0.5x speed on youtube and just take it note by note and look where he is playing. Took me maybe 2 days. now i can play it all except that strict legato.. need to practice the speed on my fingers haha. And the im super happy with the Jackson JS22-7 really a bargain considering what a metal monster it is.
***** that's awesome to hear man!! if you like you can send me your email and i'll send you a backing track of the song?
Josh Lim thanks for the opportunity! but i dont see what i would do with it, since i cant record any of it. and i have learned the song by now. But thanks anyways. and the song is great dude. totally digging it. keep it up!
i'd rly like that drum sample to practice if its possible^^
+Cyclotaur Can you ,please, make a tabs for this song ???
Hi +Josh Lim. You are welcome to send the backing track my way if that's still possible? mjmoult@yahoo.co.uk Love this track.
Because of this video, I have just purchased my very first 7 string! So happy!
if you watch the video in .5 speed from 1:40 onwards it sounds like a slower more dramatic outro. so sick
when I see this video I come to the conclusion that mostly is how u play,I saw so many demos that made the guitar look like crap,but watching this one convinced me to buy it ,and I dont regret it,even with a guitar not so expensive this guy shows that if u play good and make a good tone and mix it will sound big and expensive,bravo
Update bought it today its great
So smooth.
Awesome job man! Proof that budget equipment can yield great sound.
Also
See, now why can't everyone take an example from this guy? Made a video, sounded good, didn't need 34 different camera angles, then it ended. Perfect
I just bought one tonight, my first 7. At such an insanely cheap price, these things are awesome. But that's a given, it is a Jackson after all.
just bought this guitar and i couldn't be happier.
the tone is just *chefs kiss*
A guitar demo shouldn't go this hard. Man this was good lol.
Not normally into the 7 String sound, but for some reason, this particular guitar has had my full attention lately.
Definitely getting this guitar now!
Just picked up a JS22-7 after watching this video! insane guitar for the price
You deserve an endorsement
Kick ass video man... I think I know what 7 string I want now.
cheers man!
Beautiful. Dude thank you for blessing my ears with that beautiful piece of art
holy shit...i'm so pleased i purchased my js22-7 a few weeks ago from mf.com...although there was a back-order, i just received email notice it is shipping tomorrow.........i'm appreciative you've posted this, man...as much of the other demos aren't as professionally put together...........i must say, ..good riffs, man....and, there's no doubt, ..i'm pleased i chose this piece....wow..the basswood, maple and jackson p'ups..quite the combination...eager to hear your demo with the duncans, as well...
once again, man..thanks for posting. just the demo i needed..to be convinced ha.
haha thanks man!
This guitar is also perfect for upgrades - I put a hipshot bridge on it and the string holes aligned perfectly. I find that Nazgul made the guitar tone slightly less dark than the stock pickup as well
Bought this and dropped a pair of seymour duncans in it and it sounds so nice and plays very well
God damn dude i love your demo of this guitar. Its too sick.
Great demo man i might have to get one now
cheers man
convinced me too, i'm also ordering this guitar! sick playing dude!
Yep, just got this guitar in the mail today because of this demo! Loving how its not too light or heavy but just right.
I just ordered one of these. VERY nice playing, Josh!! Impressive indeed!!
cheers lairdo :)
at last... a nice demo..awesome guitar and it sounds great
You sir, are proof that it's not the price of the instrument, but what you do with it. Well done!
This video is the only reason I bought this guitar, and I'm glad I did. So thanks for the vid!
I keep watching this video. You have convinced me to get this guitar.
Juat got the same exact model last week. No regrets!
I love the sound of that beast
you made me make up my mind im getting this guitar
Just got this guitar yesterday and have been looking at demos and yours is by far the coolest and is dj0nt.
You are a true Djentleman o/
This is what i wanted to hear!
This is an awesome piece! Been watching this before I got my js227 yesterday :)
Is this your tuning?
Ab Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb?
I'm still new with extended range :)
I bought this guitar last summer, and I can say it really rocks! It's a good guitar! Btw nice video.
What an awesome song!
Sounds like Keith Merrow up in here.
Hank Hill My thoughts exactly.
FUCK ME I WAS ABOUT TO POST THIS
Also, why the fuck do i see you everywhere?
I just got one from my buddy in trade for getting him some pedals. Going to place the pickups, replace the bridge (rusty), restore the fretboard and frets, and paint it either matte white or silver. Yes, I know i could have gotten a new one fairly cheap, but I was looking for a project and a 7 string? That's an interesting project compared to a 6 string.
Totally buying this guitar next pay period. Great song as well.
Original i love it great buying one of these soon too , too get into this style. tried just detuning 6 string not the same
ive only just got one of these loving it at the moment and for a great price too - really pleased
Probably going to order this guitar from Thomann tomorrow. It just seems like such a beast of a guitar for the price. Get some locking tuners, decent pickups (like you already have) and perhaps a Hipshot on it and I'd imagine it plays like a premium guitar for a non-premium price lol
that was beautiful
I'm diggin' that little tap you're doin, i never thought of incorporating that into a heavy riff
im going to be buying this for my first 7 string
Same
Jackson should use this to advertise this guitar. Well done.
cheers!! :)
So good!
Amazing playing and just convinced me to buy the Jackson.
Here because I just got one too. Early Xmas for me 😍
The stock pickups sound pretty good in my opinion. Just a bit muddy.
I'll learn this song after I buy my first 7 string. It is catchy af. And you bet my first 7 string is going to be this exact same guitar.
really great guitar player!!!
Mine is arriving today, Thanks for the inspiration!
Got this guitar after a setup it plays great. Swapped the pickups for blackouts since I'm a big trivium fan and wanted to a get a similar tone to corey
This sounds really nice, amazing playing. I dig it
absolutely badass. i'm waiting for my guitar so show up in the mail :D
Killer riff
I bought this guitar cause this video , so far so good!
awesome playing and sound !!
Sick!!!
Awesome demo dude!! Same as what most people have already said, I just picked up this guitar after watching. :) Got it on amazon for $185. Can't wait to get my hands on this bad boy :)
thanks dude, enjoy!
Really cool song.
Nice riffs.
Awesome
Ordered mine today, I am so anxious.
SICK
Order was just sent in just now for mine ! I was going to get the active pickups but i seen most have the hum bucks so i went with that !
Its funny, I was looking into getting this guitar and I wanted to see some reviews first and i found this video. Then I found your soundcloud, now I'm laying vox on your track. Hahaha! but this sounds really good man. Keep it up!
Cheers man, thanks for taking the time to put some sweet vox on it, made my track even more br00tz haha ;)
I know it's an old video, but awesome playing and fantastic tone! KILLER tone!!
sounds really awesome man.
When he tapped that 23rd fret I felt that.
waiting for mine now, thanks to this vid
This is sick! im using LTD m-17 stock pups, but this is insane! and I like the track, wanna learn it!
This 7 String is pretty much a steal for the price. I have the model with the maple fretboard and I love it. I just wish it was coated with oil because I always get finger marks on it :/ But it still kicks ass for the money! Especially when you swamp the PUPS out with some Duncans! It's pretty much my main 7 String at this point.
So sick! Great skill :)
Fantastic playing -- and like many other commenters, just bought one :D Jackson should sponsor you. Classy right-hand mute during the tapping part at the end! Great job mate.
im so ordering this one this weekend and getting Lace Deathbuckers for it
You can seriously play mate. And write I might add. This is actually brilliant. How'd you find this guitar?
thanks man! for what i paid, it's really great :)
I've just given up on The Ltd m17. Unplayable. Sharp, uneven frets and too short a scale. Does the Jackson feel like a toy?
I mean it though. You have real talent. There are so many RUclips shredders but few that can actually construct songs with feeling and melody.
I hope you pursue something musical. All the best mate.
@deathgrindbrutal
Thanks man. How are the fret ends? The other cheap 7s I've tried have had razors for fret ends.
hey i know this is late but i just got the guitar and im wondering if it has a biflex/dual action truss rod? im trying to give relief but its not working out.. hopefully thicker gauge strings will do the trick.
I think the song sounds better on a 7 than an 8. Killer jam bro, real tight to to drums!
I'm putting a Seymour Duncan Nazgul/Sentient 7 Set on this guitar, I already ordered them, you think they will sound good with my JS22-7 ?
sick dude!
Great tune!
what VSTi are you using for drums samples? Sounds massive! Or is it just simple plugin, but heavily equalized?
Nice playing man!
0:12 had headbanging for a moment
