Members Koz Posted April 17, 2006 Members Share Posted April 17, 2006 This is my new DK2M...I got her last week, but I'm also moving so this is the first chance I got to snap some quick pics and post them. Fit and finish is first rate, as is playability. The pups sound good. This guitar rocks and I LOVE THE MAPLE NECK. No plans for upgrades yet. I've never had a problem with the Jackson trem and the improved trem feels a little more solid. Thanks Fender for upgrading not only the MIM strats, but also revamping the import Jackson line! Did I mention that this guitar rocks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members metalhaze Posted April 17, 2006 Members Share Posted April 17, 2006 Nice, I was lookin pretty hard at the white DK2M but I've changed my mind and I'm trying to find a way to purchase a Tagima K1 or K2 model. Besides, I already have a DK2 EDS. Anyway, congrats on your new guitar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members TheStoveMan Posted April 17, 2006 Members Share Posted April 17, 2006 Definitely sweet. Saw it on the JCF a while ago, but the ability to access the JCF has been pretty sketchy over the last few days so I didn't get back to reply there...BTW is the fingerboard finished or bare?I know Jackson USA won't put finishes on the board, but not so sure about that in Japan.. I have my fingers crossed for finished (yes I'm the black sheep on that issue) but I'm happy either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mazi Bee Posted April 17, 2006 Members Share Posted April 17, 2006 Very nice! I dig the way they made the headstock match the fretboard. I hate when they put a black headstock with a maple board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Koz Posted April 17, 2006 Author Members Share Posted April 17, 2006 The fingerboard is bare. I've got a pic of the heel...someone was interested...but I'm not where I can post it. And import Jacksons are MIJ. Thanks for all the kind words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the new trem more stable than the old ones? If it is, I might have to pick one of these up for use as my metal/shred guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id say its better, the steel base plate helps out alot, i tried a old DKMG when trying out my current amp and the Floyd on that was good imo, but this new Floyd is as nice as the one on a ESP LTD MH-400 i have tried, i think its better than the MH-400s trem in many respects!!! Mind you theese are based on 30 min trials in shops, whitch may not be the best basis!!! where are the import jacksons made? I belive the new DK2Ms are also bade in Japan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
