Jackson Guitar 1990?

I have a Black Strat body neck through jackson active electronics serial #u00464. Was wondering if anybody had any info on these guitars? Is it considered a soloist? Mother of pearl inlays in neck and Jackson name. Is this rare? Tried looking up serial # From what i could make out it was built in 1990 in Ontario. Any info would be appreciated Thanks

J1814996

Looking for what model it is. Thank you

My Jackson seems different

I can't find the body style w the same humdinger cut outs and the tuner pegs aren't all on one side. My number is 01060370
I believe it said made in Italy though... Is this a fake or has it been modified?

Randy Rhoads Jackson

Im needing to know what year and everything basically about my guitar. The serial number is CWJ2204719

What is the year and place made of this Kelly model that I have?

This is a Jackson Kelly I’ve heard that it might be a 99 model and on their catalog it looks like a K E3 except for there are not original pick ups and some of the other hardware has been replaced with black hardware although it’s a Kramer Floyd Rose Which fits it has a eight number serial number only the serial number is on the back of the back plate. The number is 99090678. Thank you for any input by the way this has one volume knob and 3 position switch, as well as to hum bucker‘s the hum bucker‘s are. Not Seymour Duncan’s

JACKSON PERFORMER PS-3

Hey, I really wonder when my guitar made.

Serial number is 1031643.

Thanks.

Jackson Performer serial numbers

Made sometime in the mid to late 90's at the Korean factory. All of the Korean Jackson Performers started with a 1. You can't get an exact year out of the serial number. Just know that it was made in Korea in the 90's because that's when they were being produced. The Made In Japan Performers started with a 94 (the early models) or 96,97, and 98 possibly. Hope this helps.

2002 USA soloist

I have a 2002 USA Soloist SL1 with Hot Rod Flames. (through body) Can't quite figure out anything concerning the serial # U10779. None of the guides I have been able to check start with U1. The closest I can get is U0. I know 2002 was around when jackson was being sold and thing got a little weird concerning serial numbers. Or so a Jackson rep told me a few years back.

can anyone help me identify my solid body charvel

with serial number C600915

go here to check Year made etc

Jackson Performer made in Japan

Hi ( SERIAL 9607496 ),

Please, I want to know information about this guitar and what is its worth (this has been saved without use, It's almost new)?

Thanks

Japanese jackson

I can’t tell you what model it is from the serial number but
I can tell you it’s Japanese and that’s a good thing.

Look at the 2006 Jackson catalog to figure out which model it is.
With a 96 serial number it will be close to that model year.

Hope that helps. Reverb is a good indicator of value usually once you find the model of the guitar.
Be safe.

Jackson DK2 TR serial number 9696373 Japanese bolt on valuation

Hi there,
I was wondering if anyone knew roughly the value of a Jackson DK2 TR (Transparent Red finish) serial number 9696373 Japanese bolt on neck, please? It has Seymour Duncan pickups in 2 single coils and a pair from the direction of the neck to the Floyd Rose style locking trem.
Many thanks.
Chris

Value

Check reverb for resale value. Take the average asking price and
Subtract 10-20% off of it.

Dk2’s are killer I’ve got 2. I paid 3-400$ each a couple of years ago but that’s a killer deal
They sell for 5-800$ depending on the market and condition.

Sometimes more. Hope that helps.

What about a Randy Roads

What about a Randy Roads model with this serial number 101091

similar serial number

ive got a "professional" model neck-thru serial number J101374 which is the closest ive seen to yours. its a standard jackson strat style body, one humbucker two single coils. its a deep green, almost black.
im trying to figure it out, from what i gather it could be a japanese made guitar from 1991 which could make sense, i read they only made professional neck thrus there from 90-92 i believe.
Your guitar serial number have the J in front of the 101091?

tough figuring this out, thought i had an american made all this time lol
maybe it is but i dont think so now

NHJ1002760

Can anyone help identify this Jackson? NHJ10002760

Jackson Performer

I just bought a Jackson Performer (PS4 - I think) Numbered on Back Plate 9615710. Can anyone tell me where it was Made (Japan I think) Year it was made and Approximate Value. I really like this Guitar so I plan to keep it, but my Son also likes it, Thank You, Samo

Can anyone tell me when and where my guitar was made?

So, its a Jackson V serial number 002030 on the fingerboard. The only match to this number I can find says its a bolt on,...but is clearly not. Its one solid piece. Anyway, its silver, 24 frets with a floating bridge and Seymour Duncan pickups. I bought it used about 15 years ago.

Thanks

Usually 6 digit serial

Usually 6 digit serial numbers are Japanese models made before 1997. The first number denotes the year 0=1990.

Jackson concept serial number

This doesn’t even look close to a typical Jackson serial number. I’m selling 9405559.. I don’t know what it’s worth. Someone made a rent payment with it.

Jackson V "Crafted in India"

I just bought a Jackson V that has "Crafted in India" stamped into the back of the tuning head. It has a Jackson Floyd Rose Tremolo and the Pickups look like EMGs, but they say Jackson on them, and there is no where to put a battery so I'm sure they aren't Active or EMGs. The tuning machines have (would you believe) stickers that say Jackson. It is not a bad looking guitar. It looks identical to a JS Series King V, except the cord jack is on the lower part of the "V" instead of the upper. I plugged it in in the pawn shop and there was no buzzing or bad feedback. Whoever owned it didn't know how to adjust the floating tremolo to make it level and then set the string height and intonation. I plan on doing all of that before I pass judgement. The serial number is stamped into the metal neck plate and is NJHK08007329. I can't find any information about this guitar anywhere. Anyone know anything about it?

Jackson V

Its JS20s

Serial number: 08007329 (eliminate the letters)
