Compact 2/3-scale electric guitar
The Jackson JS1X Dinky Minion is a 2/3-scale electric guitar with a 22.5 inch length and a poplar body. Its bolt-on maple neck includes graphite reinforcement rods for stability. The 12 inch radius amaranth fingerboard carries 24 jumbo frets with sharkfin inlays. A rear-angled headstock and sculpted heel improve upper-register access.
22.5 inch scale length
The 22.5 inch scale is the single specification that determines whether this instrument fits the player. It shortens the fret spacing compared with a full-size guitar, suiting smaller hands, younger beginners or anyone who finds standard scale stretches uncomfortable. The 24 jumbo frets still provide a full two-octave range per string.
Dual humbuckers with three-way switching
Two Jackson high-output humbucking pickups and a three-way blade switch deliver versatile tones without extra controls. The bolt-on maple neck and graphite rods keep the instrument stable during travel or temperature changes. At 9.95 weight units it remains light enough for extended playing sessions while the compact body fits easily into gig bags or overhead compartments.

Questions about this item
How does the 22.5" scale length affect playability on this bass guitar?
The 2/3-scale 22.5" length reduces string tension and fret spacing, making it easier to reach notes and comfortable for smaller hands or travel.
What does the three-way blade switch control on the dual humbucking pickups?
It selects the bridge pickup, both pickups together, or the neck pickup alone for different tonal options.
Will the 12" radius amaranth fingerboard with 24 jumbo frets fit a standard guitar case?
The compact 22.5" scale body is smaller than full-size guitars, so it fits most mini or travel cases but not standard full-length cases.
