Seven-string fans looking for a guitar that is as sleek and
deadly as it is affordable will find everything they need with the Jackson JS
Series Dinky Arch Top JS22-7 DKA HT. This beastly axe features a 26.5-inch
scale length for better low-end articulation, a lightweight and resonant poplar
body with an arched top and a bolt-on maple neck with graphite reinforcement
and scarf joint for rock-solid stability. Hosting 24 jumbo frets and piranha
tooth inlays, the 12 to 16-inch compound radius amaranth fingerboard creates
the ideal playing surface for fat riffs and easy chording near the black
plastic nut while gradually flattening in the upper registers for
lightning-quick solos and wide bends without fear of fretting out. Powered by
direct mount dual Jackson high-output humbucking pickups, the JS22-7 DKA HT is
also equipped with a three-way blade switch, single volume and tone controls,
compensated string-through-body fixed Jackson HT7 bridge, sealed die-cast
tuners and Jackson’s 3 by 4 (3 over, 4 under) AT-1 headstock. The JS22-7 DKA HT
is finished in a brooding Satin Black finish with all-black hardware.
12 to 16-Inch Compound Radius
Jackson pioneered the use of the innovative 12 to 16-inch compound radius
design, in which the fingerboard gradually flattens toward the heel from its
more rounded profile at the nut. This makes for comfortable and natural-feeling
chording and riffing near the nut, with optimal shred articulation and bending
nearer the heel.
Dual Jackson High-Output 7-String Humbucking Pickups
The Jackson 7-string high-output humbucking pickups are painstakingly voiced
for full, rich tone while providing maximum overdrive and sustain without
muddiness.
