    Great review, I have a ton of respect for your opinions on modern metal guitars. I appreciate you called out that the Josh Smith doesn’t have stainless frets. It is interesting Josh says he prefers nickel when his recent Custom Shop builds all have stainless; I have to imagine it’s a cost decision (which is the RIGHT decision since it includes Evertune and Bareknuckles stock).

    Went around the local shops today to find the 6 string version of the MDK. No one had it unfortunately, but next week there should be one of the cheaper pro MDKs that's essentially the same without the evertune and different body woods. If it fits me, I'm getting it. Your endorsment also added to it.

  • @DukeLetoIII
    @DukeLetoIII 9 месяцев назад

    I just got the Jackson Modern DK 7 ET today - what a fucking instrument! It's my first Jackson, first 26.5" scale length guitar and my first guitar with an Evertune. It's eerie how it came perfectly in tune (BEADGbe) and just stays in tune no matter how hard I play. The best thing about it is that it just stays perfectly intonated all the way up the neck - I've never gotten a new guitar that didn't have to be tuned and intonated out of the box a bit. The neck feels good, with the fat Wenge strip providing some texture for the thumb. The shape is similar to my Kiesel Vanquish 7, which is like a shallow-medium-ish C oval. It's not flat like my Ibanez RG, but it's not even close to baseball bat territory either. It just feels RIGHT. The action is fine, but I'll likely lower it when I change strings and tune down.
    My only gripes are the fact that the volume and tone knobs are a bit uneven on their posts, especially the tone knob. This might have been something that happened in shipping, though. The gig bag is pathetic, especially for a $2,000 guitar, and the top of the headstock looks like it may have punched a hole in the top of the bag (similar to another RUclipsr's experience). Not a huge deal because I can just get a nice case when I need to. Lastly, the Fishman Open Core pickups are actually Fishman Fluence Classics - which is confusing. Why would Jackson put Fluence Classics on a modern-style 7-string guitar? They sound fine for cleans, and they're okayish for distortion/chugs, but it would have made much more sense for Moderns to be installed instead of Classics. The Moderns on my Ibanez RG and Kiesel Zeus CHUG and sound amazing in any pickup selection/voice, whether clean or distorted. Honestly, I'm probably going to go the passive route and install some BKPs on this particular guitar. Maybe a Rag/Jug, Jug/Jug like Keyan's or even a Polymath combo. Classics would be good on like a Les Paul or something, not a 7-string beast like this.
    Oh, and this guy weighs in at 8.2 lbs. Lighter than I was expecting, given the weight of the Evertune.

  • @davids2629

  • @EulogyfortheAngels
    @EulogyfortheAngels Год назад +1

    Something I'd love to see for further playability of guitars under $2k is getting the top of the fretboard closer to the top of the body. The bottom of JP15, Tao, Virtuoso, and some Prestige fretboards basically rest level with the body (there's barely any visible neck wood or none), and they personally feel easier to play because my picking hand is closer to the body itself for more range of physical leverage. Pickguards basically do this as well. A lot of the highly technical players can be seen playing guitars with this design feature.
    IMO, there's also no reason any guitar over $1k should lack stainless steel frets. They're strictly better than nickel.

    • @donovanolguin977
      @donovanolguin977 Год назад

      Stainless gas it pros and cons.
      Better looks, no fret dressing, smooth playability.
      The only cons I can think of is that it's harder on the strings, harder to work on and install of guitars.

  • @DukeLetoIII
    @DukeLetoIII 9 месяцев назад

    Just an FYI if anyone's inspired to get the same type of pickups Keyan has in the gold sparkle Jackson: I recently ordered a covered BKP Ragnarok bridge / Juggernaut neck pickups directly from Bare Knuckle, with the intention of installing them in this same exact guitar model, but the guys at BKP wrote me back and said that I'd need to have the pickup cavities routed. The covers are a bit more square in the corners than the stock open pickups, basically. Long story short, I just said forget the covers and go open. Didn't feel like spending the money or having to wait a bit more to modify the guitar that much (just personal preference).

  • @rdmd
    @rdmd Год назад +3

    I do think Jackson has upped their game in terms of making pragmatic changes (like the location of the volume knobs). However, in the $3K price range, this isn't that compelling of a reason to consider them at the top of the food chain. The challenge is (and always has been) asking what manufacturer makes a guitar that the average player can afford AND that is of sufficient quality that professional artists tour and record with that same "affordable" guitar. Years ago, it was Ibanez who dominated that space, but the best modern example really is the PRS SE line. Mark Holcomb tours with the same PRS SE (save a few mods such as locking tuners) that you can buy for $900. The now out-of-production Clint Lowery SE was another example. I am curious if Jackson has any artists playing sub $1k guitars on tour. If they do, that is the guitar I would say is a stronger argument for saying Jackson makes the best modern guitars.

    • @myronmosley2167
      @myronmosley2167 Год назад +1

      I agree with this statement 100%. At 3k in 2023, they’re about 2,000 dollars out of the price range for the average guitar player. This also includes touring musicians that are still “underground”. Back when I was touring, we’d never do a show without at least one backup guitar in case our main guitar had an issue. When you’re struggling to make enough money to pay for gas to get from show to show, food and every now and then stay at a hotel so you could sleep in a bed and get a shower outside of a truck stop, a 3,000 dollar guitar just doesn’t make any sense.
      I own a 2023 Mark Holcomb SE SVN and it feels and plays just as good as guitars that cost twice as much. The only thing I would change and may do in the future is put locking tuners on it. But even without the locking tuners, tuning stability is pretty darn good right if the box. For those of us that can’t drop 3k on a guitar we’ve never put our hands on (as most have to be ordered online as they are not in most music stores) I would recommend the Mark Holcomb SE series, pretty much any LTD from ESP, or any “mid tier” Ibanez before any one of these Jacksons, simply due to cost benefit analysis.
      Jackson makes great guitars, no doubt, they’re just on the high end.

Never used one but as a purchase for a studio workhorse, I’d love this model. Just wondering if it would be better to go with the hardtail or evertune with my ridiculous string gauges I choose. Thanks for all the videos! (Never paid Jackson too much mind within the past few years, Ibanez was doing fine but I’m not supporting them until they can give you a brand new guitar with SS frets and locking tuners AT LEAST. They’re starting to even have $12-1300 guitars without that AND not even a COMPLIMENTARY GIG BAG! So anything on that and how it’s held up now that some time has passed with any QC issues.

    Are we going to address the price? The SL7 retails for $2699 USD I think that’s something that seems to be putting most off at least in America

    Jackson is doing all this modern metal guitar stuff but I haven't seen any with stainless frets

      They literally just released a whole new line of about 8 guitars that all had stainless steel frets. It’s called the Pro Plus line, the gold guitar in this video is from that line

    "Bolt on guitars are snappier". This lie started with Misha years ago and other guitar players regurgitate this statement. It IS snappier when the guitar is unplugged. That's about it. There's a reason no one has a video proving it.

    Jackson is too expensive for the QC for me. Not risking it and not spending more than $2k on a guitar.
    That said, both those guitars have fantastic finishes

    2.5K+ guitar without Stainless steel frets?
    C'mon man.
    ESP / LTD, Solar, Schecter and Ibanez are cheaper with all the bells and whistles.
    Their quality is also more consistent than Jackson.
    So, no.
    Jackson does not make the best modern guitars, far from it.

    I like everything except the shape of the headstock. Purely for me, the classic head is unsightly. Something more modern, like the MM series, went better.

    I don't get why even top of the line Jackson guitars have a headstock piece glued to the neck creating a structural weak spot. Ibanez had necks with carved out headstocks for decades now even on cheaper models.

    Dont get ahead of yourself. Yes as of late jackson released few new cool models for the modern metal/core player but its too early for statements like yours. Years and years jacksons models were orientated for the shredders and deathmetal, classic metal in one word boomers. Lets not forget the quality issues of their import models. We see a change of directions now lets where they end up. Ibanez and Esp are the trend setters for modern guitars and every other brand follow what they do. This is the truth.

    It's not Jackson though. It's Fender using another brand to put out modern Fender lines without "tarnishing" the vintage vibe of their name. What made the soul of Jackson guitars up until they left Chushin Gakki is gone. Just look at the RR line.
    And they're overpriced and under spec'd compared to LTD which offers 1000 series floyds and SS frets for way, way less money.

    im sorry but those guitars are super over priced for made in indonesia and still having stock tuners no special woods or anything its a nice guitar but here for 1800 euros i mean were looking at a ibanez japanese prestige guitar for less at that price point or for a little more with top specs
