Construction with a fast neck
With the construction of the Jackson JS32 Dinky DKA Pavo Purple, Jackson follows the classic guidelines of modern metal electric guitars. The poplar body meets a bolt-on maple neck with an amaranth fingerboard, creating a powerful basic sound with a fast Attack - ideal for precise riffs and assertive solos.
The neck with its slim speed neck profile and compound radius offers comfortable, unhindered playability across the entire fingerboard. This makes complex chords and fast riffs as well as expressive lead parts particularly effortless.
Jackson High Output Humbucker
The electric sound conversion of the Jackson JS32 Dinky DKA is handled by two Jackson high-output humbuckers, which impress with their powerful Output and precise response. In the distortion channel in particular, the pickups deliver a tight, assertive sound with focused mids, so that riffs and solos stand out clearly in the band sound even with drop tunings.
But the pickups are also convincing in the clean range: melodies and chords are reproduced with good string separation and clear articulation, so that the guitar remains versatile even with more transparent sounds.
Floyd Rose Licensed Tremolo
Last but not least, the Jackson JS32 Dinky DKA Pavo Purple is equipped with a Floyd Rose licensed tremolo, which offers high tuning stability thanks to its double-locking construction. or dive bombs, squeals or aggressive whammy bar attacks - the vibrato system reliably implements even intensive playing techniques and impresses with its smooth response.
Precise Jackson die-cast tuners on the headstock complement the hardware equipment and support precise tuning and easy string changes.

The JS32Q HT is a surprisingly well made guitar for the 266€ music store is selling them. I was after a guitar with high output pickups to record some metal riffs, and was looking at Ibanez RG/RGA/S series, but the Jackson seemed to offer a similar package for less money so ordered the JS32Q HT Dinky.
Pros: - Well made - The maple top looks good and makes this guitar look like a high end one. - Light weight = can play standing for long hours without any shoulder/back pain - Stock Jackson pickups are surprisingly good, clear and tight. - Stays in tune well - Hard tail is much easier to live with than a cheap floyd rose
Cons: - The stock tuners are a bit flimsy and lack accuracy but they hold tuning well. - Factory strings are absolute rubbish.
All in all for 266€ this is a very good guitar and does the job perfectly!
