Dinky

Called ‘Dinky’ for the body size, they feature “a lighter body with high-speed playability” according to Jackson. These are bolt on guitars, otherwise identical to the Soloists in many flavors. Assume they have a compound radius 12” to 16” fretboard, maple bolt-on 24 fret neck, and standard volume, tone, and three or five way toggle unless otherwise noted. Asterisks mean more information and research is needed.



80s Dinky

The first custom 'Dinky' option which meant a bolt-on neck but a slim Soloist shape as opposed to the 'Vintage/Strat Style' shape. Specs as shown in the 1989 image were whatever. Notice the reverse headstocks and only 22 frets though Jackson noted that the '24 fret option was becoming popular' at the time. Also notice the Schaller tremolos. Finishes: USA custom options.
