    Grand débutant / Guitare budget!

    This is an Indian made guitar. It has 22 frets on an Indian Rosewood board. It has a maple neck and a Cedro body. It has one tone and one volume knob, and a 3-way Blade pick-up selector switch. It has two Jackson humbucker pick-ups, and a two point Fulcrum (Strat Style) tremolo bridge. It has a standard Jackson Neck with a 12" radius at the nut and a 16" at the heel.

    UTILIZATION

    The top notes are very easy to reach, but the heel is cut a bit too thick for my tastes. It makes it a tiny bit uncomfortable to shred on, but it doesn't inhibit your ability to play. The only time I have trouble playing on it is when I hang it too low when standing. It's more of a nuisance than a real problem.
    It is VERY easy to get a good sound from. The pick-ups are decent clean and have a good sound when distorted. It's design is the standard Jackson super-strat style, and is a little heavy, but not too heavy.

    SOUNDS

    I've used it in everything from a Line 6 spider to a Peavey 6505+ to a Vox AC30. This thing does metal, rock, and hard rock the best. It can do blues decently as well, but it excels in metal and rock. This is not a country/pop guitar. It is too trebley and bassy for those genres. I use it to mainly play Thrash metal. With too much gain and/or bass, it gets muddy. But that's at very high gain or bass levels.
    If I EQ an amp right, I can get good cleans using this guitar. I use only the Neck pick-up for cleans, because it's a thicker, fuller sound. I use the Bridge pick-ups for distortion and the Neck for leads. Distorted this guitar screams. It would benefit immensely from a pick-up change though. A good set of pick-ups would take this from a good guitar to a great guitar.

    OVERALL OPINION

    The thing I love the most about this guitar is the Neck. I prefer the Jackson neck to all of the other brands I've played (Ibanez, Dean, DBZ, Schecter, Fender, Gibson). The thing I like the least about it is the neck joint. It could have been cut thinner.
    I paid $210 for this guitar. I feel it is worth more than that. I'd put it in the $250-350 range. This is a beginners or a budget guitar, but it is one hell of a guitar.
    The sound quality from this guitar is stellar. I can hear almost any mistake I make and every note rings out clearly when I want it to.
    This thing is reliable. In the almost 3 years I've owned it, nothing has broken on it, rusted, warped, or anything else. It has a few dings and scratches, and has a moderate case of buckle-rash on the back of it, but what guitar doesn't? I've gigged with it a lot in the past year and have played dozens of shows, and it's never let me down once. Only time I've ever had to switch guitars on stage is when I had a song in a different tuning,
    I tried several other guitars from Ibanez, Dean, and Schecter before I tried this one. Once I played this one, I knew it was the guitar for me. I fell in love with the neck the moment I played the first note on it.
    Knowing what I know now, I'd definitely buy this guitar. This is one hell of a beginner/budget guitar.

    Non pas que beaucoup

    These guitars are budget guitars meant for someone who hasn't been playing for a long period of time and just wants to get started with their guitar playing. Here are the specs on the guitar:

    Alder body
    Maple neck with 22 jumbo frets and rosewood fingerboard
    2 humbucker pickups
    Vintage style tremolo
    One volume and one tone control and a 3-way toggle switch

    UTILIZATION

    The fretwork on this model isn't that great. There are also some neck joint gap issues. With these lower guitars, the luthiers spend much less time on them. Usually, they just give them the quick once over, and they're good to go in their eyes. Given the price point, time is money, so it's somewhat understandable. The tolerances aren't quite as tight, and it can be seen with the neck joint and other small areas such as those. The trem on this thing is pretty trash, too. It's made out of pot metal, it sounds bad and it doesn't really stay in the tune. The nut could be fitted better, but it wasn't snagging, so that's a good thing.

    SOUNDS

    The guitar didn't really resonate like it should. I think they used some trash alder or something. I like alder in a certain weight range, and this was pretty heavy. Some people think that a heavier guitar is a thicker sounding guitar, but I find that it usually just equals dead weight. The pickups in these were some no name pickups. I have no clue who makes them, and I wouldn't be surprised if they're some in house things. The bridge pickup was muddy and undefined. The neck pickup was super thin and lacked what I look for in a proper neck pickup. I wouldn't even recommend replacing the pickups in this guitar, personally.

    OVERALL OPINION

    If you're looking for a cheap beater guitar, this might work out for you. However, if you're a serious musician, I recommend looking for something a bit better quality. You'll get more for your money, and it'll be more enjoyable to play. These lower end guitars just really aren't my thing, but I could be spoiled after playing higher end guitars for the past 5+ years of my career.

    Débutant Jackson

    The Jackson JS1 is one of the original guitars from years and years ago. However, today's axe is far from hanging in the realms of the normal Jackson series. The guitar has the following specs:

    Maple neck
    Alder body
    22 jumbo frets on an Indian rosewood fingerboard
    two humbucker pickups
    A vintage style tremolo
    One volume control, one tone control and a three way toggle switch

    UTILIZATION

    The guitar had quite a few issues from what I found. The frets were a bit sharp on the ends. Whenever you moved your hand up and down the neck, you could feel them kinda dig into your hand. The frets were also uneven, and I couldn't achieve the action I was looking for. The neck joint on this had a bit of a gap in it, and that can adversely affect tone. Access to the higher frets wasn't too bad, but I generally don't have too much of an issue with that as long as it's not a Les Paul.

    SOUNDS

    The guitar sounded pretty thin. First of all, it didn't resonate that nicely acoustically. That seemed to have a negative effect on everything else. The bridge pickup was hot, but it was pretty thin sounding. When I rolled down the tone knob, everything just became real undefined. The neck pickup was very muddy and lacked all definition when it came to fast lead passages. I couldn't comment on the middle position because I never use two humbuckers at the same time. The clean tones were pretty bland, and midgain tones were nothing noteworthy.

    OVERALL OPINION

    These are pretty cheap guitars, and there's a reason for that. I really don't recommend getting these. Instead, if you're on a budget and want a Jackson, look at the Japanese Jacksons. They're put together better, seem to have more resonant woods and just feel better. You can get them pretty cheap on eBay.

    Cette petite vient d'Inde (en tout cas, la mienne car c'est une "vraie" Jackson, pas une fabriquée par Fender). Bois : cèdre. 24 frettes. 2 micros humbucker JE10. Réglages de volume et de tonalité. Vibrato.

    UTILISATION

    Je trouve le manche super agréable. Elle me semble facile d'usage. De mes 4 guitares, c'est ma ptite préférées. Elle tiens bien en main mais malheureusement, elle est lourde (enfin, par rapport à mon Epiphone Les Paul Special II). Le son obtenu (metal, comme je le voulais avec cette guitare) est facile à obtenir.

    SONORITÉS

    Elle convient pour le metal. Je joue avec un Hugues & Kettner Blue Edition 30 w. Ca donne pas trop mal ;-)

    AVIS GLOBAL

    Je l'utilise depuis presque deux ans. Je l'ai achetée pour le look (la pointe agressive Jackson) et le son. J'ai eu ce que je voulais ;-) Vu que je l'ai achetée d'occasion (100€), je dis que c'est un bon rapport qualité/prix mais neuve, je pense qu'elle en vaux la peine. Seul point négatif, son poids et une certaine fragilité au niveau des boutons de réglages. Je referais ce choix sans même hésiter ...
