  • I got the same guitar replaced the bridge and since then I love the shit out of this guitar. The swirl on mine is hella prettier. You can hear how it sounds now on my YouTube channel.

  • does the body have a wood feel or is it coated in something so it doesnt feel like wood?

  • 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. ????????

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • Dave Mustaine said quite recently tht Jackson guitars aren't what they used to be.

    Yeah that nut is unforgivable.

  • 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!

  • 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 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!

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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!
