Help IDing a Jackson Dinky

I thought it was a DR3 but they have a Gibson-style toggle, not a Fender-style blade. Hmm.

Does anybody have any advice?

Thanks!

Looks sort of like a JS11. but the pickups and bridge are different.

And the fret markers.

According to this: http://www.scottysguitars.com/tech-department/110-jackson-import-bolt-on-serial-number-guide

It's a 2000 model

I think I found it, but the model number is blurred out, this is from the Jackson 2000 catalogue (http://support.jacksonguitars.com/catalogs/us/Jackson2000_catalog.pdf)

On page 17 (10 on the PDF), the third guitar down.

Is that page really blurry on yours? Good work though!

It looks like this on mine.

Pretty sure it's a DX10D. Presumably not worth a lot.

Body is definitely one of those JS series Indonesian Cedro ones as the vol pot is in the 'Wrong' place (Wrong for me, being a conservative anyway), maybe a JS30.

Edit: Think the neck is off a DX10 Dinky as is the neck plate.

Small problem though. Does it intonate OK?

No idea - I was wondering what it might be worth before even travelling to look. I just want a shred guitar for fannying about - but cheap!

I'm pretty sure the neck and body don't match and to add to that, the Cedro JS bodies were made for 22 frets and the DX10 necks had 24 frets, that is not a DX10 body. In fact more likely to be a JS22R or JS32R neck also, again they had 24 frets though.

The original 2012 X series bolt on guitars had scalloped cutaways.

The vol and tone pot position and blade switch say to me it's a JS30 body which had 22 frets.

What about this:

I'm a bit confused. This has 24 frets?

Sambostar · May 2015

Think the body was made for 22 though eh is what I was trying to say.

Howdy, Stranger!
