Curiosity. What does JS stand for?

[schizotronic]

This one is almost idiot... Just wandering if JS stands for "Jackson Student". Anyone? (by the way I just got a Dinky Archtop, made by Weibo in China. I own several Jacksons, Indonesian, Japanese, Indians and an AWESOME American KV2T Ghost Flames - blue... this Dinky is unbeatable regarding price-performance ratio).

Hey, so how do you know it's made by Weibo?

"Jackson Student" makes the most sense and is a reminder of the traditional naming scheme of the original 80s Jackson guitars (Custom trim vs Student trim).

I owned a 2013 JS32T Rhoads that had a serial number that began with CWJ; now it makes sense that it stands for China Weibo Jackson.

A tag comes with the guitar. Besides, I know some guys in the industry and it's a well known fact. By the way, is Weibo the PT Wildwood company?

YEAH! That was my hint.

The tag actually says Weibo? Interesting. Weibo is a Chinese company, Wildwood is an Indonesia company that used to make X-Series and Pro-Series for Jackson. But...they may have a plant in China, not quite sure, which is why I used think that Wildwood China used to make the JS Series.

Could just as well mean "Junior Series"

This. Thought it might’ve been described as such in prior catalogs?

[Number Of The Priest]

Wouldn't that mean that "JS Series" means "Junior Series Series"?

It's like saying ATM Machine.

Interesting. I have three XSeries, all King V's, all neckthru made in India (the great Harmony Company). Wildwood got the production after FMIC dismissed India?

Junk Series

That's what i though about the earier versions.. I called them the "Just Shit" series.
Lately thought, they've been pretty decent.
I have a JS32TR that is a fantastic guitar. Picked it up for $75. Ditched the crappy pickups for some DiMarzios and it sounds great.

So, does that mean my next guitar will be a Made In Ignorance Prostitute Series?
