Here for sale we have a Jackson X Series Dinky Arch Top DKAF8 MS 8-String Electric Guitar in Gloss Black finish. Made in Indonesia in 2020, this guitar consists of a Mahogany body, a Maple neck, and a 24-fret Laurel fingerboard. Other appointments include Staggered Individual Saddles, Black hardware, Jackson Sealed Die-Cast tuners, and a pair of Jackson Uncovered 8-String Blade Humbucking pickups. These pickups are wired to a master volume, master tone, and a three-way pickup selector. 

 

The 1-piece Maple neck plays well, with the Thin 'U' neck profile feeling slim and ergonomic in the hand, allowing for great thumb placement all across the neck, whilst the Laurel fingerboard and jumbo frets provide a robust playing experience that feels rock solid under the fingers, whilst enhancing string bending and vibrato techniques. The 12"-16" compound radius ensures that the playing experience is tailored to the needs of the player in all registers. Jumbo frets increase sustain whilst enhancing the feel of vibrato and string bending techniques, providing an even and balanced feel across the strings, particularly in drop tunings. The double cutaway body design provides unobstructed access to the upper register, making solo lines a breeze.

 

The X Series Dinky Arch Top DKAF8 MS comes equipped with a set of Jackson Uncovered 8-String Blade Humbucking pickups. The Blade humbucker pickups were designed for Jackson and feature a slanted design and rail strips optimized for the multi-scale design. The humbucker in the neck position is round and powerful, working brilliantly for lead lines and solos. The humbucker in the bridge is of course brighter and hotter, delivering a saturated distortion tone for searing rhythm parts and riffs. Impressively, the pickups retain clarity and definition even with low-down fast riffing.

 

Please be aware that for international buyers import fees are not included in our postage and packaging cost, this only covers the cost of the guitar being sent to you. Import fees will be charged by Customs upon the guitar's arrival in the recipient country. Due to Brexit, this also applies to EU buyers. We advise checking the total import cost with Customs as this is not information we are able to accurately provide.
