Jackson X Series Dinky Arch Top DKAF8 MS β’ 8-String Multi-Scale β’ Mahogany Body β’ Stained Red β’ Used
Engineered for extended-range shredders and modern metal players, the Jackson X Series Dinky Arch Top DKAF8 MS combines dual scale lengths (26ββ28β) on an angled fretboard to deliver optimal tension across all eight strings. Featuring an arched mahogany body in a striking Stained Red finish, a fast bolt-on maple neck with graphite reinforcement, and dual high-output Jackson blade humbuckers, this multi-scale beast produces tight low-end clarity on the low F# while maintaining comfortable, fluid playability on the high end.
Condition is Excellent overall. The finish and body show only minimal, unnoticeable handling wear (see photos for close-up details). The hardware is clean and fully operational throughout, with only minor surface oxidization on the pickup pole pieces/bladesβa purely cosmetic note that does not affect performance or sound output.
At a comfortable 7.5 lbs, it balances exceptionally well for an 8-string model. Our in-house technicians have thoroughly bench-tested the electronics, verified structural integrity, and performed a complete setup to ensure low action and tight intonation across all eight strings.
