Jackson Buying Guide

With their high-performance playability, searing tones, and bold style, Jackson guitars and basses are the choice of players looking to push conventional musical boundaries. Established in 1980 by Grover Jackson as a custom shop catering to professional players who needed to squeeze every last bit of performance out of their instruments, Jackson soon became a manufacturer of their own guitars and basses. While superstrats, like the Soloist and Dinky, are the company's bread and butter, other off-the-wall designs helped establish Jackson as a major player in the heavy metal scene of the 1980s. From the Rhoads signature V-shaped guitar, to the star-shaped Warrior model, Jackson has always been in the business of pushing limits.

Now, you can push your own musical limits with a Jackson of your own. Check out our Jackson Buying Guide and find out which model will take your playing to the next level!
