I'm about to get my first Jackson, and am now facing the dilemma of choosing between the DXMG and the DK2.
It's my understanding that the DXMG would be a better choice if I want a pure metal guitar (which would actually be kinda what I'm looking for), but that the DK2 would be better for clean playing (as it has both a humbucker and single-coils), and is a more allround-ish guitar. Is this right? I do have a guitar capable of playing clean right now, though (3 single-coil strato imitation).
How would you rate the EMG-HZ (DXMG's humbuckers) versus the Duncan HB-102B (DK2's humbucker)?
As I live in a small town pretty far away from any major guitar dealer, it would be very difficult for me to try testing both guitars before buying.
Therefore, I highly appreciate all thoughts and suggestions from those of you who are more experienced with Jackson guitars.
And another (probably stupid) question: what does "carved top" really mean?
