Jackson Fusion Standard

This is yet another low end Jackson made overseas. The guitar has the following specs:

Basswood body
Maple neck with a rosewood fretboard
24 extra jumbo frets
Offset dot inlays
A Jackson licensed floyd rose
HSS configuration
One volume, no tone and a five way switch.

UTILIZATION

The Japanese guitars back during this day had some hit or miss things going on with them. There were some that were killer. These were the ones made with the same woods as the American counterparts. They were also built by a certain luthier. The lower end ones made with basswood don't really sound that great, and I find their quality isn't quite as good.

This guitar had an original floyd rose swapped into it. I much prefer these to the stock Jackson floyds as they hold tune better and generally sound better. The cheaper pot metal of the lower end Jackson floyds tends to suck tone. The frets weren't too bad on this, but the neck joint had a slight gap in it that could potentially affect tone.

SOUNDS

This guitar had aftermarket pickups swapped into it, so I'll be going on the tone based on those. There was a DiMarzio Evo in the bridge with two FS-1 single coils in the neck and middle. The Evo in the bridge gave this guitar some serious bite. It really cuts through the mix, but it might be a bit too bright for some people. It's very high output, and you can hear every little mistake you make, so it might not be for everyone. The FS-1 pickups are pretty cool in that they give a unique, powerful kinda single coil tone going on. There was a noticeable volume difference going from the neck to the bridge, so that might bother some.

OVERALL OPINION

If you start modding these guitars, there is some potential in them. However, I think you can do better if you spend a bit more money and buy something that has alder or mahogany. I'm a fan of basswood on my Ibanez guitars, but it just feels wrong to have a basswood Jackson for whatever reason. Maybe I'm too traditional.

Manufacture Japan. handle target. Floyd Rose licensed Takeuchi. 24 frets.
Finishing simple but clean, no frills. sounds and that is the main!

UTILIZATION

You must love the sleeves flat. if this is the case, you will be delighted!
The guitar is made for soloists, shredders of all kinds. Access to acute perfect handle fast and slippery.
Balanced guitar.

SOUNDS

The original pickups are already good or very good. But I love the Sh-12 Screaming Demon, then he came on the guitar side easel ...
Guitar and Rock and Metal oriented sounds (or more) less comfortable in clean sounds, some say ... From my side, with two microphones origin (neck, middle) and Sh-12 (bridge), I have a good range of sounds (from light to deep and round distos that vibrate) Everything is a matter of taste you tell me ...

OVERALL OPINION

Long played above -7 / 8-years in the group and at home. Put a little away today because Flyod has aged badly (broken and seized) So I'm changing everything floyd side to give it a second life as lutherie level, it has not moved to a bit! Attention to the damn floyd when changing strings, it quickly becomes a headache (but valid for all guitars floyd!)
This is a typical guitar course but it's still a good instrument midrange and especially a sure 90's in Jackson (violin, shape, sleeve).

made in japan I think at that time, jackson floyd doing his job, 24.5 sleeve pitch ideal for short fingers, plus it is late, it's a guitar where small jigs will feel like in poisssons water, the pickups are fabulous, a abération to change them, they are at the top and give its character to the guitar.

UTILIZATION

this is a guitar that suits me perfectly, a guitar in my size, "smallest" than average, or lighter, linden wood is light, ergonomic top, do you get a good sound easy??
badinate you sir!
it is also impressive, how can output sound so HUGE, powerful, warm, clear, full, guitar from as small?
I tried many charvel jackson, some good competition and this merger is possessed I assure you.

SOUNDS

connected anywhere with it sounds easy and diabolical precision, the metal is very large field of its prédiliection, where it reigns in mistress.

OVERALL OPINION

guitar a rare value for money, good starts to sputter the selector, it costs nothing to change here, the metal comes out alone on this guitar and in a truly splendid ..... Another small downside vibrato seems more brittle at the fine tuners that take a large clearance with age.
I never the revendrais!

OVERALL OPINION

I have been using a bunch of years at least 8 years and I keep it again!!
if you have big paws watch out because it is a "small" with a short scale guitar
I try a lot of models before and after, gibson, fender, prs, lag, Gaudin, ibanez

very good report quality price no regrets I would do without hesitation that choice .....
his name is melting and it's true we can do all styles from jazz
to grind ..... versatile modern sound
it's not a guitar for rockabilly !!!!!!!!!
If you have suggested OCCAZ cheap and it is nikel go ahead !!!!!!!!!!!!!
