I found a pic of a Jackson with a Joker theme art on
pintrest.
IDK if it's a Soloist, or Dinky. I don't think it's a USA.
White
Reverse heafstock, reverse shark peraloid inlays.
Black script on white headstock.
Covered humbucker
Single neck pickup
Pickup switch
Volume knob
Tone knob
Tremolo looks like a Schaller but IDK about Tremolo history with Jackson.
Joker as in from a card deck, not a Batman Joker.
The pic cuts off the top of the point, but
there is something there. I can't make out
Professional or something else.

is the trem like this?
The Jackson JT6 is a Floyd Rose licensed Vibrato made in Taiwan used on early Charvel Import guitars. The tremolo is made of pot metal and the tremolo block comes in 3 sizes: 32mm, 37mm and 42mm.
or this?

not knowing anything about the provenance you can't preclude a 580 or 580lp, either
The JT580 tremolo is a licensed Floyd Rose tremolo made in japan by Takeuchi and given the Jackson brand. It is actually the Takeuchi TRS-101.
The Jackson JT-580LP tremolo is a licensed Floyd Rose tremolo made in japan by Takeuchi. It's also known as the Takeuchi TRS-PRO.
edit: okay, usa then it's definitely a 590

The Floyd Rose Original and 1000 series arms both work in the JT-590 but the 1000 series is cheaper.
