"Any guitar, in the right hands, has the potential to sound better than most guitars three times the cost of it."
ya but its about the guitar´s potential..:)
You know it Javier !
Sean nt Nah
yea but a lot of these sales man are not that good but they using thousands of £s of sound hardwear too deliver the sound at its best so it sounds better then any one will on a 600£ too spend
Yeah but playing on a nice guitar is so much more fun and smooth than playing a shit guitar. That's why I'm getting annoyed as hell with this quote. I wonder why guitarists like Yngwie Malmsteen and Steve Vai only play custom built guitars?? Hmm...
I'm gonna tell you guys this right now. The JS32 is one of the best guitars out there regardless of price. The pickups sound amazing clean or with distortion and the necks on these are really comfortable and easy to play. Mahogany body is very light which adds to the comfort of this little beast. You will need the help of a video to set it up properly if not familiar with a floyd rose.
I was suprised how light it was. And yes it plays great. Looks awesome. The only thing I would have liked is if they had a string tensioner tree at the headstock because the strings change pitch at that angle, when you clamp the nut bolts down. I had to restring mine to get the low E to sit more in-line as it left the coil
@@dylanmartin9190 I always just tune the e and a strings a little low so when you tighten the nut up it, the extra tension should put it in tune. I don't really have that problem on the other strings. I have an esp mh1000 which has a tension tee and I still get the same issue with it
Yes its a fantastic guitar for the cost. But to say that it's one of the best guitars out there in a world of high end rigs is insanity. Any jackson dinky arch top with a floyd rose 1000, is going to be "better" than a jackson with a licensed floyd rose trem or better quality tuners etc.
@@MrBikboi "Better" is subjective but my JS32 has dead level frets and I can put the action wherever I like with no buzz and it stays in tune. I have a Charvel Pro Mod DK24 and the Jackson plays way better so I'll say the Jackson is better in this case as I had to do a fret level with the Charvel and it was $800 more. Now my PRS S2 you see a definite step up in quality however the Jackson has been able to Rival any guitar I have regarding playability regardless of cost and i just wanted to recommend a very good FR style guitar to anyone who wanted something solid and stable that didn't cost a fortune. Eart guitars is another I recommend because no company gives you what they do for the price all with SS frets.
Thank you for addressing the fret quality. This is THE key reason I’ve been shopping for a new beginner/intermediate guitar. Your video helped me nail my purchase decision. Great job! I’m now a subscriber.
Excellent! I'm glad I could help.
i just got one and i play alot of blues and cancer.. im very satisfied
I've got one .the neck is fantastic!
How do you guys like this neck? Thinking about buying one for a build I’m working on
The production quality of your videos and overall look is just amazing!
Since when did John Travolta shred on a six string!?
🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Lmao!! The illegitimate butt baby of travolta and professor Snape!!
LMAOOOOO
He's not John Travolta! He's Glenn Danzig!
Well it could be grease lightnin’!!!!
I tried this guitar in a store yesterday and fell in love, probably gonna buy it next week.
Just got this and I love it. It's a steal at the price they're asking. I've got a couple of guitars costing 2-3 as much that can't beat it. If you're new to guitars, get yourself a good amp to go with it. It will make a world of difference.
thx a ton for this solid review sir. I swapped the bridge pickup to a SD Invader, shes my affordable customized squealer I just luv!
The Floyd Rose on all JS models is a Floyd Rose special , it just has " Jackson " branded on it , great trem systems , and yes they stay in tune .
Scottish Trendkill I'm going to put a tremel-no in my js32 king v. I know the bridge stays in tune but I change tunings alot and I can just making it a fixed bridge without having to deal with that awkward string through bridge. If I want to use the bridge for some dives, I can just turn two knobs in the cavity. Alot better than a block of wood in my opinion.
It's actually not even a Floyd Special anymore. they, along with ESP and B.C Rich have gone back to licensed tremolos on anything under $499 USD.
@@metalblast1 I think they've changed it and I was unaware, they genuinely were Floyd Rose Specials at one point, I have no idea why they'd switch to licenced Floyds all of a sudden, in my experience they don't work as well as the Specials
Scottish Trendkill . A special is about 1/3 of the cost of the guitar so reduces profit margin on lower cost models. A licensed costs probably 1/3 of the special or less
iv'e had, no problems, with the floyd, on the dinky !, intonation , tuning, all good! i leave the cover, off the back, of the guitar, changing strings,, i just tweak, the phillips claw screws, until the strings break in.
I have 3 J's 32 Jackson's they are really great guitars I'm supprised more people haven't talked about how good the Jackson stock pick ups are.
His voice sounds EXACTLY like James Hetfield's
...
chris hany holy shit it does a little
He looks and sounds like Tyler Blackburn
chris hany actually more like david ellefson
Phill x before drugs
Just purchased this guitar in the js32 series satin black! Can't wait!
Kickass
Put DiMarzio DP-100 (Super Distortion) in bridge and PAF in neck and you'll end up with 70's/80's axe.
@@hadeseye2297 I was thinking more of Seymour Duncans
@@nickrkr Depends on what you're aming at.
The set I gave is good for Led Zeppelin, Kiss, Def Leppard and other 70's - 80's stuff.
SDs were used for example on Guns N' Roses Appetite for Destruction.
@@hadeseye2297 i have this guitar and i dont understand if they actually have a fucking volume knob.the volume doesnt even go fucking down.the volume knob rather acts as a knob to lower the mid.
Holy shit, you are good ! I landed on your channel googling that guitar. I ordered one :)
Subscribed and liked. Thanks for sharing, mate 🤘
I bought one of these recently as my band covers fight for your right by beastie boys. I'm tuned to Eflat and play the solo at the 17th fret, the frets are great if you have cigar fingers like me. You'll play licks on this guitar you never thought you'd play. Not bad at all for what I paid for it. Great pickups, great neck and took 0 effort to set up despite never owning a floating trem before.
Max, great review! I've been eyeing a Jackson JS32 Dinky Archtop with a rosewood fretboard and similar specs for a while now on zZounds website. They come in several colors and look really nice. Your review may be the catalyst to push me over the edge to purchase one! 😀👍👍🎸🎶
Robert what's up with zzounds is that for real I look at least once a week it just seems to cool to be real they say certain payment plans they dont even need a credit approval how are the odds if they say you approved you won't get to check out and then they start with the old unfortunately at this time you can not be processed
Did you ever get one? I’m also eyeing one but kind of want a Soloist. The neck thru design looks awesome. Any input is appreciated, thanks!
I was looking go get a budget friendly guitar and this video absolutely convinced me to get this one.. It sounds AWESOME !
ya bence de gayet iyi gitar ama floyd rose nasıl acaba
Been using a jdr 94 concept reverse head for years.Sometimes i just open the case to look at the logo.The best logo of all time.
i Have the Jackson JS34q which is almost the same but with HSS (3 pickups) and its fantastic. Thank you for showing me how awesome i COULD sound if i was as good as you! lol. You help me reinforce that i bought a great little jackson dinky that i have fun playing. Really fun guitar for the price
I have this guitar the neck plays like no other guitar I ever played and is totally worth upgrading
Found a great deal on one. Going to grab it tomorrow, I'm stoked! My first maple fretboard :)
Would you recommend this Jackson js32 guitar with maple fingerboard?
I own this guitar. Well not that one, I have the js32 quilted maple top. It's fabulous. I changed the pickup magnets to alnico 5's and wax potted them. Highly recommend. Even the import Jackson's seem to hold their value. You can't hardly find a used one under 200. Awesome review max. :)
I forgotten to say, that mine is the purple one, with amarantho fretboard... and I completely agree... the neck is quite good and accurate. Original pickups are not bad. Good guitar good price
Thanks Max for this review makes me appreciate my JS32 more.
Did your js32 stay in tune?
Just bought the last js32qt red string thru Sweetwater had in stock.beautiful guitar.this will be my 5th or 6th jackson.thx for the great review.
Really nice review! No nonsense, easy to watch.
Mine is on the way. I can't wait.
Had this same guitar, pickup upgrades. Wish I still had it. Sold it to help get what was supposed to be a better more expensive guitar. It wasn’t. The black JS I had was very good.
Got mine after I watched this 3yrs ago.It's still shredding loud.............Domo Arigatou---
hey man, how is this guitar compared to a standard sized though? do you notice a big difference?
@@cracker182 Is your JS32 this size? 12.99 x 2.40 x 39.29 inches. Scale: the scale is 25.5" (648mm). 24 Jumbo frets. Compared to my ESP, Scale Length is same 25.5 Inches not much difference.
@@fujiwaramichaelm6686 i havent bought an electric yet, im in the market for one thats why im shopping around. i have an acoustic atm
@@cracker182 It's a great fun-to-play Jackson. Floyd Rose trem. Good luck
The jackson js line is the best looking guitars they make now jeez
GuitarGodsUnite Well it doesn't matter how they look it matters how they sound
Milly obviously
Yup, I wish they would make some pro models that looked half as good. I don't get why it is so hard to find full shark fin inlays on the pro series (most are off set dot or piranha) and maple boards
Splitty agree 100%, I would order the purple Charvel Pro Mod San Dimas, but it has the cheesey Fender shaped headstock & dot inlays...it would look SO good with sharkfins and the Jackson/old Charvel headstock shape.
@@sploit777 I agree. I'm eyeing this beautiful red soloist with Maple neck and white SD pickups but the sharkfins are small. I don't mind them white, but they're small! I love the sharkfins.
thanks for the review mate, just bought one of these because of this!
You do some real good playing I can tell a great improvement from your first video. Even though that one was not bad. Keep kicking ass on the guitar. Kind of got that George Lynch sound about you.👍
Glad he grew his hair out. It looks way better now than it did in this video. The longer hair works for him.
I never noticed that 😂😂 it really kinda does.
Wow those Jackson High output pickups sound amazing!!!!!
GREAT REVIEWS AND DEMOS MAN.
I've owned many high end guitars in my life but the Jackson necks are just perfect in my opinion. I prefer the hard tail bridge and I string mine up with flat-wound .09's.
I just ordered a white JS32DKA-M and she'll be here in 48 hours. Only wish I had his shredability!
I actually own a Jackson Soloist 3 Made In Japan, 1992, now this JS32, it’s worth the money! They’re actually the best guitars for Metal, nothing bad to my Soloist and I believe this one with a real Floyd and some DiMarzios or some other type of hot pickups would make it sound like an American Soloist! Woods are great quality!
I have a 92 Kelly!
Wow I didn't expect that sound it is pretty damn awesome...
Great budget guitars. I actually have thought about buying one without the Floyd. I also like the reverse headstock models from the past. I just wish companies would use something besides plastic cheap nuts, although I've not seen this one. Another sleeper, at least on paper is the Ibanez SA series. I think about the same price range, and the small body, and ESPECIALLY THE WONDERFUL S SERIES INPUT JACK, and just comfortable to play. The one I tried was.
Always good stuff. Thanks.
Best and fastest neck I ever played. The pots they use do not pass enough frequency and hold back the pickups. I in stalled Dragon Fire sealed pots and Dragon Fire 23000 ohm quad rail pickups which turns this guitar into what it should really a Shred Monster!
I have it in white and I have a Squier Strat. Guess which one I love the play by far. Oh my goodness, the neck is super awesome to play. I can't shred but I love the ease and smoothness of the neck. I'd like to get a Soloist next. Love this guitar.
I bought the natural js32 and modded the shit out of it for under $200. It'll go up against most super strats or at least give them a damn good run for their money. Absolutely great guitar
What mods did you make?
I'm thinking about buying this and swapping the pickups. Dont know if I should go with Dimarzio or S.Ds
@@niyok671 added an SD distortion at the bridge, SD full shred in the neck, threw in a Floyd Rose Special trem that I got on sale, cts pots, orange caps. No joke, it's probably one of the best sounding guitars I own now.
@@topjimmy72 was a drop in swap?
I have one with dots on the neck (no binding) and a reversed headstock. It really screams when you use a tube amp. Stays in tune and The power cords sing out too.
I bought this guitar on sale here for around 240$ (Showroom model). Pickups are Jackson branded Bellcat humbuckers. I removed the black glossy paint and replaced it with an awesome Blue/ White crackle finish and just got some Jeff Beck/Jazz PUs.
Right now it is drying in the garage (clearcoat takes a while). I cannot wait to unleash the beast!
An awesome guitar for modifications.
DethVmnt update: I got asked by some people which wanted to buy my "custom jackson" for 1500€
piRaufasertapete LOL! Did you sell it?
piRaufasertapete so you know some fools? OK that was harsh, I haven't seen your guitar and you probably did a great job customizing it...still that's a lot for a dinky.
Pretty sure no one thought a bolt on neck dinky was a custom shop Jackson lol.
I bought this guitar 1 month ago. Amazing guitar! I think best in priece.
Would you recommend this Jackson js32 guitar with Floyd and maple fingerboard?
Max, out of all the budget guitars you have demo'd, witch one would you buy, if you had a budget?
Just bought the Jackson JS32 DKA Purple. great review.
Me too!! Purple Pavo! Can't put the damn thing down! I call him my boyfriend and named him Emppu after the Nightwish guitarist who also plays a purple guitar. Lol. I have a Fender as well and played them back to back and the Jackson made me cry. It sounds so fucking good!! And... well...PURPLE!!!
@@arwenphoenix1 Would you recommend this Jackson js32 guitar with Floyd and maple fingerboard?
I have a CWJ 1815018 but when I try to tune it, it doesn’t sound that great. I need help to get it to sound like it’s supposed to be. (Heavy) can someone help me?
This is a badass video . Thanks .
I’m looking at a satin black rosewood neck of this and I’m curious about how long it takes to undo the Alan key stuff
I have one on the way just in time for my bday.Will be my second guitar for drop c
I just purchased one! I'm really excited. Time to dump the bar like crazy
Hell yeah,I slapped a dime bucker in the bridge,blocked the trem and added a kill switch to the tone.My favorite guitar as of now!
iv'e got a dinky, quilt top, excellent player, quality is excellent, the neck, is really straight, frets good!, really no need to replace any parts!
Thanks. Yes, finally got a Jackson JS32 Dinky natural oil. Setup ok, its frets needed smoothing.sounds great. all I need to do now is learn how to play it. hehehe
What would you recommend for a good pick up for the Jackson dinky JS 34 looking to upgrade mine for a more crisp rock/metal sound ?
You like to mainly move down on the lower frets when you play, you also like to slide 2 frets over and 2 frets back. What do you think about the old Jackson performer ps2? I want that one actually.
That was a great review!
Im getting this guitar tomorrow, what adjustments or setup do you recommend?
I bought the js34 , love it
I have this exact model but my bridge all the way to the fretboard is. Silver plated
Would love to see you do a comparison between a Jackson JS11 and a Kramer Barretta Special.
i need this guitar NOW!!
Hands down best Jackson
Have this same guitar, love it, looks great too!
I always click on your reviews when available because i know you will rip up the fretboard like i do and i can hear kind of what it would do for me.
I have the white one..bought on last year.. but why the maple fretboard on yours is darker while mine is brighter? is this new model or what?
different model
Great review thanks.
Any time i get a little too proud of my playing i watch some maxwell and then the voice in my head says practice more moron instant humility
mine has a slight twist in the neck, how do I fix or where do I buy new neck?
Dude! You look so different here than on your recent videos! LOL Mad lad!
I got a dinky js32 and it constantly goes out of tune. Can’t even play it really. Idk how to fix it
Awesome guitar playing
Thanks!
I have JS Rhoads great guitar now I want a dinky how is that floyd.
sounds good hows the tuning? have you had any problems with the floyd rose?ive been wanting that model but worried about the trem system.should i buy it
Hi sir... I want this guitar bat im worried about the tremolo... Did they stay in tune? Thank you
I would like to see you review the Jackson JS11 selling for 150.00
Can we change the distortion to clean and vice versa through the guitar?
I've got a JS22 dinky, I'm quite sure that it's pretty much the same guitar but without a floyd rose and it's a beast of a guitar with some amazing tones. In my sincere opinion, the inconveniences that come with having a floyd rose like changing the strings greatly outweigh the stuff you can do with one like crazy dive bombs effects and such.
6 months later.
Hardtail all day
I got one of those this last January, and I have to say that I really like it, but really HATE the tuning stability problems caused by the hockey stick headstock. If you have managed to beat those problems, I would like to hear what your solution is.
@@edwinstovall3334 Well mine stays in tune amazingly well, either your tuners are defect or the guitar just needs a little more wear. If the problem persists you could always change them with some Chinese tuners, you can get some surprisingly good quality ones for really cheap. Hope this helps!
@@RisingSun96 I hate to say it, but that doesn't really help. I changed my tuners to a set of Wilkinson EZ-LOKs that I had around the first day I had my JS22. I'm planning to change out the plastic nut in the near future, but I also wanted to try making the existing nut right. That way, I could apply the same solution to the new nut if necessary. Not giving up yet, though, and I'm still really enjoying the guitar whether I can use the vibrato or not. Maybe I should try just wearing it in for awhile. Either way, the search continues! Thanks for trying!
@@BOBANDVEG ive had mine for 14 years and no issues..
I bought this guitar for my girlfriend. It is in my office and I've not given it to her yet. The volume pot seems to suck. Can it be lubricrated? Or should I take it back. It turns up, but some parts of the turn seem to loose signal.
U should review affordable guitars like the esp Ltd ec 256 and the ec 401
I want to buy that one (first guitar, I’ve been playing bass for like 1 year) but I don’t know if to buy it or not because of the Floyd Rose
Great test!
I own this guitar, totally love the neck. Question is can I buy a Pro and get this neck?
Is it advisable to change the floy rose for an original???
I had a Charvel Charvette that I miss. Looks like the replacement is found.
What an amazing guitar playa!!!
What effects were you using toward the end with the lead riffs?
Is this equivalent to a ibanez rg350dx?
What's the size difference between a dinky, is this smaller and how do the tuners feel?
Hi Max, don't know if you're still replying to this video or not but here goes anyway!: Why is the JS32 still humming so much even though it has humbuckers in it? Is it the same to other Jackson guitars you have? Thanks in advance!
Where I can find one with the black inlays?
So i'm looking for a new axe and I'm coming from a Strat style. I'd consider myself beginner - intermediate.
I want more of a modern sound possibly with Floyd Rose for... yes you guessed it... DIVE BOMBS. Now I know there
are ways to set up and upgrade your guitar to get the same result but these are the ones I've narrowed it down to.
Yes, I'm using the term narrowed down lightly. Also, because its Covid I can't go in and try all of these. The
most I can do is buy one and if I don't like it I can return it within 30 days. That just sounds unreasonable. I've
done a shit ton of listening tests with and without headphones online, tonnes of comparisons and I'm only more confused.
Would love any help and insight. Not trying to break the bank but also don't want to go half way.

It possible to split the humbuckers on this guitar???
Hi,how to you thinks about a vibrato?good o bad?is better with o without?thanks.
can you please give as much info on the amp you use for this review thanks
I first thought I was looking at and hearing Keanu Reeves, or a relative ~ LOL. Anyway, MC makes it sounds great and pretty clean; just wish he would mention what amp he is plugged into too. Rock on ...
crystal clean junior series .............. good review nice hand for guitar playing
You have other videos with this guitar? oh pictures, i can't found any of them
The magnets on those stock Jackson pickups are bigger than mine - do you know what they`re called please?
