Help needed! Info on my Dinky by the SN#

[Mr Dinky]

Hi guys.

This will be my first post on this excellent forum.

I recently aquired a Jackson Dinky. I got it as a part of a trade deal from a guy that barley could communicate on my language(swedish). So I don't know much about it.

That is where I need your help. I would really like to know what model it is, where and when it was made, if possible, and what hardware it contains.

It's a pink/purple one with dot inlays and standard headstock. The serial nr is 508795.

At least the guy said it was a Dinky, I have never owned one before so i can't tell.

Can't find any info on the web so I need your help

If it has a bolt-on neck, it's a Dinky. A neck-thru would be a Soloist. Post a pic.

Well it could be a 1995, made in the Japan factory...here's the first Dinky page out of the '95 catalog:

So if it doesn't look like the EX, it could be a Fusion (short scale) or a Stealth.

Best to post some good pics.

Pictures would help, agreed

Could also be a Fusion (short scale Dinky); a lot of Fusions had dot inlays: http://audiozone.dk/guitargallery/?c...4-95Page09.jpg

Hehe maybe I shouldn't have called myself Mr Dinky

Would be great if you could give a hint about the street value aswell

It's a Grover Jackson Dinky model... made for the Japanese market only. The Grover line eventually turned into the Jackson Stars line.

[rjohnstone]

Ahh... that's Grover Jackson (Japan market only)... looks like it's been refinished too.

EDIT: Joe was faster.

[Mr Dinky]

Man you guys are quick!

The big clue is the GROVER JACKSON on the neck plate!
