The Jackson Dinky is a guitar made by Jackson that has a very comparable body to that of the Soloist, but is more economically priced. But just because it costs less does not mean that the Dinky does not hammer out the same wild tones as any other Jackson these guitars were built to rock, and that is exactly what they do.

Jackson prides themselves on building instruments that can handle the roughness of stage life, and the constant pressure of the road. That is why so many professional and even semi-professional musicians choose to carry Jackson guitars with them. But what makes the Dinky so unique is that it combines all of the things you have come to expect from Jackson meaning great looks, a killer sound, and super reliability, but has a price tag that even beats other Jacksons! What you have left is a killer guitar that is AFFORDABLE and that is a dangerous combination!

Here are some of the features that come on some models of the Dinky, including the DXMG:

  • Basswood body
  • Bolt on maple neck
  • Fingerboard made from compound radius rosewood
  • EMG-HZ hum bucking pickups
  • Black or chrome hardware, depending on the finish
  • Jackson tremolo that is double locking
  • 25.5 inch scale length
  • Jumbo frets
  • MOTO Shark fin inlays
  • Pickup control selector
  • Sealed die-cast tuners

All of this just goes to show that Jackson is delivering a powerful guitar in the Dinky. While a bolt-on neck and other things serve to lower the price of the instrument, they do nothing to the quality. So, what you get is a guitar that is fashioned by Jackson to be incredible, without an incredibly high price tag to go with it!

People who own this guitar often report amazing sustain and tone from it, and the passive EMGs deliver the monster sound you are looking for without fail, time and time again! You will probably have to get it set up when you first get it (as with any new guitar), but once you do this, you can probably look forward to years of playability without having to service it at all.

If you are an intermediate to expert guitar player who is looking for an incredible sound from a guitar that is as tough as they get, then the Dinky might be the way to go. Jackson has delivered an instrument here that can keep pumping out raw tones and incredible sustain without blinking an eye and keep doing it for years! Some people are not so fond of the 25.5 scale guitars, but even those who prefer the 25.75 scales love this axe!

They also say that you can play about any style of music through it, whether it is country, rock, metal, or even pop. While Jackson specializes in guitars that pump out monster tones for the head-banging crowd, guitars like the Dinky also offer clear tones that can come in handy for other types of music.
