DK3XR

Picked up this X series second hand as a cheap live backup. Replaced the electronics, made the trem dive only, and added a fat brass block.

Who else is playing a modded X or JS series?

How do I remove the decorative knob caps on a JS32 king v?

Online is saying nothing exact - I just want to take the “decorative” black caps off to replace them

More info on this guitar ? It was listed only “Jackson pro dinky 2” for 450€. What year ? Is it Made in Japan? What kind of tremolo and how is it holding up?

I love this...

I am a guitarist that loves bass guitars as well, but has never owned one. This one may be my first. The Adam Blackstone sig. Absolutely killer aesthetic similar to my LM87.

My Upgraded Jackson King V

My upgraded Jackson JS32 King V in matte army green. Kinda disliked the Jackson Branded Floyd Rose but the Special feels great. I also put an EMG 81 pickup in the bridge.

Is this a serious issue?

I was opening up my newly purchased Jackson 7-string to dampen the springs of the Floyd Rose when I noticed this crack in the top of the opening? How cooked am I?

Floyd rose not returning to pitch

i use a js32 king V the guitars great im happy with it but when i use the whammy bar its ok on dives but when i dip it the strings come back sharp and i noticed that the bridge wasn't returning level so i messaged my tech and he said on cheaper end instruments this is a common problem he comes across and i should use it as is or turn it into a hardtail or just get a Japanese esp or something

the thing is im in a shitty third world country and well with the economic situation and import restrictions its super hard to find a Japanese made esp and im only comfortable on king V's which makes it even harder to find

he did have a Japanese ESP king V but its around 3600$

which when converted is a astronomical amount of money for me

I just wanted to get opinions
