  • DK2M opinions

    1. I just recently picked up a Made in japan dk2m neck that is mint other than a slight crack in the headstock for 100 +shipping. I was wondering what to expect out of this guitar. The neck is going on a dk2t body With Dave Mustaine Live wires that i have had laying around for a few years.

    I find the neck on them much nicer than other models. it's a slimmer neck than the Kelley KE3 I had.
    Turn the volume to 10 and rip off the knob!

        The mij dk2m neck is probably the sexiest damn neck ever made. Jackson needs to wake up to themselves & get it back into production..............the specs anyway.

          Agreed. I've got 6 of those necks on WRMG/XT bodies and you won't find a better match IMO. The hard part is finding an Ebay seller willing to throw in the complete locking nut rig and the complete tuner setup (screws, retainer nuts, etc - had one guy actually include the tuners when I asked if he would, but he sent them without their mounting screws).
          I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood

            I have a white DK2M and it's the comfiest neck of all of my J/C guitars.
            I want to go out nice and peaceful in my sleep like my grandfather, not screaming and hollering like the passengers in his car.

              Would a DK2M neck fit into a Performer body?

                DK2M's rock. What to expect when you put that neck on a hard tail? Don't know....never owned a hard tail Jackson. Now I do own both a rosewood and maple fretboard Jacksons. My maples do sound a touch more trebly.

                    Aye, who doesn't love those necks? They're the reason that both of my Jacksons are DK2Ms.
                    I like maple fretboards. :P

                      Probably, as long as the Perf body had a 24 fret neck. You will want the original body's neck bolts, however, as they were thicker than the DK2M bolts.

                        I have a white bengal Dk2m as well and it's my favorite guitar. The maple fretboard with black shark fins is a killer combo and the neck is fantastic.
