Overview

A pint-sized shredder loaded with full-scale features.

The Jackson Dinky Minion JS1X electric guitar provides the playability and tone serious guitarists demand in a travel-friendly size. Its 2/3-scale maple bolt-on neck and 12"-radius amaranth fingerboard give you 24 jumbo frets for expressive soloing and effortless position shifts. The sculpted heel and pointed 6-in-line headstock offer ergonomic upper fret access and balanced string tension.

Solid Construction for Sustain and Playability

The Dinky Minion JS1X's poplar body resonates fully to produce singing sustain. Its hardtail bridge anchors the strings directly into the body for improved intonation and longer resonance. The combination of resonant woods and solid hardware gives this guitar a surprisingly bold and aggressive voice for its compact size.

Fast Neck and Sculpted Heel

The bolt-on maple neck has a fast profile so you can blaze through riffs and solos. Graphite reinforcement rods provide stability while a 12" radius gives smooth playability. A sculpted heel makes it easy to reach the upper frets. The rear-angled headstock distributes tension evenly for superior intonation. Overall, the neck is designed for speed, comfort and accuracy.

Powerful Pickups for Aggressive Tones

A pair of Jackson high-output humbuckers crank out the crunchy distortion and articulate clarity this guitar is built for. The neck pickup delivers bright, chiming highs, while the bridge pickup provides meaty low-mid response for bone-crushing rhythm and searing lead tones. A three-way toggle switch selects each pickup individually or combines them and single volume and tone knobs allow you to shape your sound.

Hardtail Bridge Improves Sustain

A string-through-body hardtail bridge anchors the strings securely to the body. Block saddles improve intonation for pitch-perfect performance. The hardtail bridge enhances sustain by allowing maximum vibration transfer between the strings and body. It provides a solid, stable platform for aggressive techniques like string bending, tapping and slapping.

Make a Statement

The Dinky Minion JS1X's in-your-face aesthetics embody the rebellious spirit of metal. Its gloss black finish, black pickguard and black hardware make a bold statement, while its sharktooth inlays add a touch of flash. Plug in, crank up your amp and unleash your inner shredder with the Dinky Minion JS1X—a miniature metal machine built to inspire.
