Do you own any budget guitars? What is your experience with them? 8)
Its a budget guitar not a beginner guitar, all those little issues are to be expected and easily fixed, the JS series are legit!
Oh yeah, great video, subscribed
@@tankdarla637 thank you, appreciate it :)
The psts were nice from 90.s i play a rhoads performer version . I also play a washburn dime st . I can feel the difference but not a hell of a lot tbf . I wonder what the king v jst is like?
I have 6 of the lower end Jackson models. A JS22-7 string, 3 King V's, a Kelly, and a Warrior. The latter 5 with the Jackson branded Floyd. No issues whatsoever. The trems work great. No fret sprout. Pickups sound decent although that may be the only i change on them.
I have the Rhoads V version of this guitar. The JS / Mahogany string through model. I do love the Warrior shape as well. It's one of the best balancing shapes imo. Great video!
Thanks so much man! I've got the drive to upgrade a cheaper guitar from your channel, and a lot of the info from Guns And Guitars that I found through your guys' collab! :D
I have a friend selling a beat-up js32 king V, I'm considering buying it and turning it into a Rhoads V, might be crazy as I'll probably have to cut through the electronics cavity xD
Maybe you could tell me if this might be impossible?
@@BedroomGuitarHero I think you would cut into the cavity... but you could do a *reverse* Rhoads V, like the Carvin / Kiesel Ultra V, with the shorter horn on top?
@@GuitarMAXMusic yeah I was expecting to cut into the cavity and somehow patch up the missing wall. An even messier issue would be cutting through the tone pot hole...
Hmm the reverse idea is a good shout, I'll see how the measurements are looking when I get the guitar, thanks! :D
fixing that nut is very easy. all you need is 400 grid sand paper and wrap a little on the string and sand the slots on a slant angle towards the head stock
Excellent video, thumbs up! I like your step by step explanations about the jacksons guitar parts good/bad opinion is interesting too. Also comparing to another jackson guitar and actually playing on the guitar was cool too. I have noticed that you have also recorded a video about transforming the jackson JS32 Warrior into your dream guitar which i am just about to watch. 😎👍
Can confirm a bit about some of the jackson hardware. Unless u buy a really high end jackson guitar, its like not the best but not the worst. I had an archtop for a beater guitar for a while, and its honestly a great guitar i would reccomend to anyone, but upgrade the bridge and nut because they both broke pretty fast for me (about 1-2 years still, but i mean thats not bad for this pricepoint, and they are not expensive upgrades) this guitar is essentially the same as the archtop series but with different pickups and body styles, and they are a definite buy
I bought it, and looking forward to play on it.
Love the hoodie
For anyone, of any playing level buying a fixed bridge JS series guitar.....You must absolutely budget for a nut replacement. Do NOT buy one of these models without planning to replace the nut. The cheap nut material, questionable slotting and extreme string break angle with Jackson's 6-inline headstocks will absolutely cause sticking.
Secondary would be a fret dress, set up and tuner upgrade. 2 of my 3 JS series guitars required fret end work due to fret sprout. Beyond that, basic fret dressing and set up will really bring out the instruments potential. This is always a shortcoming with " budget" guitars since fret work is a time consuming and costly part of manufacturing.
The stock electronics are workable. Especially for less tonally experienced players. My examples exibited little to no extranious noise and the stock pickups, controls and wiring are decent.
The stock hardware is also decent, but I would recommend a tuner upgrade. The stock tuners are on the low end and exibit slop, backlash and inconsistent feel. Upgrading to a good set of locking tuners will improve tuning stability. And they make restrings quick and hassle free.
Damn man, you should be making your own video on this stuff :D
@@BedroomGuitarHero I have one video up on my JS32. I don't do much music stuff though. I have to record with my phone and it sounds like crap.
I usually take a thicker guage string than intended for the slot and file it with the string, put some pencil graphite in the slots and it works well, however a new nut is ideal
Try record the sound separately :)
Do you have a recommendation on an exact replacement for the nut for this model for people who don’t know much about that? A $10-$30 upgrade isn’t much especially if it’s important. Thank you so much!
geez louise !!🎉🎉
Hey,
Can you tell the name of the song the riff is from at 6.30? I sweat I've heard it somewhere but cant put my finger on. Thanks for the great video!
512 by Lamb of God :)
Who is Jack, and what are you doing with his son?
Memes aside, I cant wait to see what you'll do with it. A breakdown of all the upgrades, why you did them and how much they cost would be really interesting!
That's the plan bro, its going frustratingly but pretty well so far. Waiting for paycheck for the upgrades cause they are kinda pricey, but re-finish has gone alright, body is done, doing headstock now, for the 3rd time XD Did body twice :p
@@BedroomGuitarHero I suppose it's gonna be very nutty... I'll see myself out.
@@DVRKSHVYVN not sure what you mean, but I can link the guitar's OF
Dave Mustaine said quite recently tht Jackson guitars aren't what they used to be.
Yeah that nut is unforgivable.
Yeah from a perspective of my Jackson from 12 years ago I defo agree 😅
Mustaine also plays Gibson. One of the biggest money name grabber brands around now. He played Dean haha. You pay them, they play them.
This guitar is great. Replace the nut play it. Everyone in RUclips talks about a budget then plugs it into a very non budget amp.
This warrior is awesome. Really liked the custom stain color that is done to it in other vids.
@@wasslewis2244
I have an X series warrior but this one looks crap judging by this video.
Important question: Will the strap buttons stay in?
Yes, twice. :D
what amp/sim are you using in this video?
Using the Neural Bogner Uberschall capture (Bogna Uber 1)
Yes but when does Jack come?
When it's his time Scarrus, when it's his time...
The floyd rose models are a bit priceier . Id call budget things like the dinky and alot of cheap copies out there .i play a washburn dime st and a jackson rhoads performer butTbf i reckon the floyd rose models would be better nutwise
Yeah locking nut wont be susceptible to the same problems I reckon, even a cheap one
I was considering a Warrior for my first guitar. Would that be a bad idea?
Hey there I've got a jackson js32 dinky as it is the same guitar except the body.
I say with any Jackson product have a good look at it and pay more attention as Jackson QC is pretty bad nowadays but there are still some good examples you just have to look for them.
Especially as a beginner do not get a floyd rose as they are cheap pieces of crap. It is just a big pain and as a beginner that's the last thing you need.
Try playing the guitar you may find the body style is a bit awkward to play as your learning but that may not be a problem is it is down to preference
Other than that Jacksons are awesome guitars beginner or experienced. Good luck man
@@abstract0014Floyd roses are not cheap pieces of crap, if you have a licensed or Special then yes but just buy a 1000 or Original and see if you keep that statement
@@BOATIE141 Yeah I meant licensed floyd roses as the cheap pieces of crap. I wasn't talking about the more expensive ones as this persons a beginner and either way having a floyd rose as a first guitar is a bad idea
nice but they show demos but dont have them for sale lol only all black or red. what gives?
I like bolt on necks . For some reason they remind me of a hot rod
11:51 Tell me about it
Rofl.
What model is your older dinky?
DKMGT or something like that… got it a long time ago 😁
Oh and on topic of neckthru vs Bolt-on, I have come to this totally not biased conclusion
Bolt-on for rhythm playing
Neckthru for lead playing
Guess Im a rhythm guitarist then kekkers
@@BedroomGuitarHero Lead for the sheets...rhythm for the streets??!!
@@DVRKSHVYVN thats right, with very short solos.
David Gilmour is one hell of a rhythm player then...lol
@@tankdarla637 damn you got me
If a JS32 warrior is made in china does that mean it’s fake?
China has a long history of martial arts practice, so I would say the warriors it produces must be decent
Looks like it was built in "FIVE MINUTES"
加藤純一 最強！
Very deep, but Im afraid I don’t understand how this relates to the video 😅
I really hope Jackson gets around to sorting their shit out soon, they are probably the worst brand at the moment in terms of quality to price. I mean they could have at least put some paint on the guitar ffs
I guess i have been lucky, I have been getting great ones, however on one I finally felt or experienced fret sprout , weird it was on the low side on the 3rd and 4th fret, never expected to discover fretsprout there...
@@tankdarla637 If ibanez can mass produce dirt cheap made in china guitars with shitty but easily replacable hardware and flawless qc, so should jackson
@@K_R_N. I have not had any issues with jacksons on any tier of their guitars, maybeits not called fret sprout as i mentioned above, the neck likely shrunk a little and two of the fret ends were out a little far, very common , no fault of jacksons, just the first time i ever experienced a guitar where that happened, I much perefer Jackson over Ibanez, I have both...
