Yeah theres a stone finish one on ebay at the moment with a maple neck, I am tempted just not keen on basswood bodies, im too used to my DK2 alder bodies, what do these things sound like? I know it does say in the catalogs that it is american basswood similar to what ibanez use on there satriani & vai guitars, so they cant be that bad?

Basswood is what they were made of basswood is basswood IMO.
The stone finishes were never clear coated and there is not much paint on them really @ yes they sounded fantastic.
They are some of the best sounding MIJ Jacksons and they resonate very well.Any early to mid 90's MIJ Jackson is a great guitar and the best era IMO.Really? well screw Mark Twain.

I have what I think is a '94 Dinky Reverse in the stone finish and I love it, the neck is amazing and it's a maple fingerboard.
There is a rosewood finger board Dinky Reverse for sale near me and I am sorely tempted to go and pick it up because the one I have is so good and comfortable, the problem is ... I don't need it, so justifying it other than "but it'll be awesome!" is sort of hard :/
The one near me is going for about €300.

It is an ash body. The grain of ash was good for a finish that Jackson was playing with at that time.
They also had a graphite finish and a red finish. They all had that matte look with strong grain.
I always wanted to find one in graphite with the maple fingerboard.
The sunburst dinky's had a thin figured laminate on basswood.
They did not use alder until after the FMIC buyout that I know of.An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.
A tooth for a tooth means we all eat through a straw.
