whats up guys, i been playing the guitar for years. i came in to some money after my car accident but i have some hand issues cuz of the accident. to make a long story short i sold my stuff off. for the longest time i wanted a jackson guitar. im back workin and i wana know if any one can offer a nice guitar that will let me play drop tunning . im talkin b or c tuning, i know i can get a nice guitar for like 300.00 then change the pickups but i want somthing i can just take it out of the box and play. lets say 300.00 to my door most online places offer free shiping. i do have a few shops and i could go to or check out ebay and craigslist(thats where i got my guitar i just got a pos )thanks

i was not to bad but my ring fingers are f-ed up from my accident, there getin stronger thats why i got the guitar to help with that. i have a pos guitar that sounds like ***. alot of pickup buzz and it dont hold a tune for shit. i wana get a jackson but there lowerlines are like 250.00 and there so so. i might get a esp, i was talkin with this guy at this music store down the road from me. he sells pos guitar and he was like if u get a guitar and u like the feel you can change the pickups.

Its not all about the pickups. The wood quality comes into play ALOT!!!! My Schecter C-1 Exotic all mahagony and has sustain like a MOFO. I have Seymour Duncan Black Jacks in it. They are active like ESP's. Sounds so fukin good. Its brown with a flame maple top.

That Dinky feels SO cheap. I didnt like it at all. I would spend a little more if you want some decent quality.
