Limited Edition Nissan/Jackson “NISMO” Dinky


Jacksonians, feast your eyes on this beauty—a special limited edition Nissan® “NISMO” Jackson DXMG Dinky™ guitar, now available while supplies last exclusively at www.nissanshiftgear.com.

The deal, you ask? First off, NISMO is shorthand for Nissan Motorsport International Limited, which is the motorsports and performance division of Nissan Motor Company. Second, we put our heads together with Nissan to capture NISMO spirit, style, performance and speed with this high-performance take on our classic Dinky model.

If you’re a NISMO enthusiast who jut happens to shred—and we know you’re out there—this guitar couldn’t possibly be more perfect for you. It has bitchin’ NISMO-inspired custom artwork designed exclusively for Nissan, a comfortable basswood body, a bolt-on maple neck with a compound-radius rosewood fingerboard, dual EMG®-HZ humbucking pickups and a Jackson double-locking tremolo unit.

It’s one sweet Jackson-fueled NISMO gizmo, if you dig. Go look already; we just gave you the URL (http://www.nissanshiftgear.com/product_detail.cfm?item__code=NISN444&user_category=NISMO&utm_medium=web&utm_campaign=RetailSplashNismoGuitar10-15-07) …

I searched and didn't see it around yet... so... lock'er up if it is.

I think it's pretty rad, myself. Not so much on the graphics, but just the fact that Nissan and Jackson made something together. Two of my favorites! I still think it should've come with at least active EMG's since it's a Limited Ed. Those passive things + "Nismo" written on it still doesn't make it worth $900. Not imo.

Well, if it's old and stuff... we shall let her die.




But I still think I could make a cooler version of the Nismo Dinky. Maybe I will. Soon.

Yeah... I've had two of 'em. An older reverse headstock DX and one of the newer DK's. Both can be set up to shred like crazy for a decent price. But, sold 'em both years ago. I'm an idiot.


Maybe some carbon fiber. Lay a single sheet across bare guitar body, finish over it smooth, then apply graphics + clear coat.

To make it more "zilvia", you may have to intentionally break something just to zip-tie it back. Afterall, the heel of the neck already sits flush from the factory! Hah.
