Jackson Dinky Serial & Value

[tellyc]

Hi all - I am thinking about buying a Jackson Dinky as a backup to my main gig guitar.

The serial on this Jackson Dinky Professional is #504037. Here is a picture of the guitar:

I'm assuming that this guitar is made in Japan since it's the Professional series. Would someone be willing to give their opinion on what this guitar is worth (translation = how much I should pay for it.)

wow! Nice DR3. You are correct - it is Japanese. I'm not sure how much it is worth though.

Hey Telly! How's the purple Dinky Reverse I sold you a few months back? [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
That DR3 should be pretty comparable. Value is hard to tell with the economy these days. I guess it's worth whatever you really want to pay for it, but I'd say probably between maybe $300- $400 or so.

Hey Joe - I still have the purple Dinky Reverse but it's down tuned to D to accomodate our singer on a few songs. I still use my original Dinky Reverse (in standard tuning) as my primary guitar, but I'd like to get a backup guitar for live gigs (Knock on wood, none of my guitars have let me down during a live show!)

Cool. That guitar was great, I had it in E for awhile, then Eb, then D. I got rid of most of my Floyded guitars and only have one left now.

I would say a DR3 in mint condition would be worth abour 350-400. They sold for about 629.99 new so that would be about right.
Great guitars those DR3's were.
