Jackson Guitars were started in 1980, as Grover Jackson took over the shop he worked at from Wayne Charvel. Soon after Jackson was started, a young guitarist by the name of Randy Rhoads (you might have heard of him) approached Jackson to create a customized guitar that Rhoads had drawn on a napkin. Dubbed the ‘Concorde’ – the radically shaped guitar was unlike anything in the guitar community had seen before – and combined with Rhoads’ lightning in a bottle playing, Jackson Guitars were started off already making a name for themselves! Flash forward to today, where Jackson Guitars have developed into a worldwide brand, with models that are the go-to instruments for shredders and guitarists who need their guitar to feel like a muscle car: fast, and seamless playability. Whether you like the neck-through construction of a Jackson Soloist, the bolt-on responsiveness of a Dinky, or the wild shapes of a Kelly or King V – there is a Jackson for you!The artist roster at Jackson is no joke!

I'm trying to get a handle on just where all these imports are being made. For the past few years with the Japanese plant now gone, the 'Pro' Series has been made in Indonesia. In 2014 on the neck-thru's, I see 'IWJ' and 'ISJ' serial numbers. All the 2015's I have seen have 'ICJ' serial numbers. My best guess at what these serial numbers mean is:IWJ: Indonesia World(Musical Instruments) JacksonISJ: Indonesia (Samick???) JacksonICJ: Indonesia Cort JacksonAnybody else have a better guess or better info?

Yup, Wildwood is perhaps the least known of these but are actually quite significant. I like the Wildwood Jacksons because they used a very nice dark rosewood.
Cort uses a very light and uneven-colored rosewood and tried to dye it but it left fretting fingers stained. In turn Wildwood's ebony was a very unusual rough grain as opposed to the super smooth ebony that everyone else uses. They also used a three-piece neck construction. Everyone else is doing now a one-piece neck with scarf joint, I take it at the request from Jackson.
And Wildwood also used only alder for their Pros. Again this must be a Jackson decision, but now a whole lot of Pros are made in mahogany. Personally, at a certain price-point I have a preference for alder-maple, it seems to me like a classical Jackson spec, instead of mahogany-maple or mahogany-mahogany, even though I understand mahogany is a more expensive wood.What I find odd is that for some reason it's as if Jackson had recalled certain Wildwood-made guitars. Sanskrit tools hyderabad hyderabad. You can find a lot of Pro King Vs and Rhoads sold as 'no repairs made - refurbished'. There's no way to know why all these new guitars were send to the refurbishing facility only to be stamped as used guitars.Cort gets positive and negative reviews. Jackson must be happy with them that they transferred most manufacturing to them.

Presumably they do more CQ than other companies. Cort Jacksons have 2 'inspected by' stickers on the back. Cort has been making Kellys for a while and people seem to be happy with those.Samick is the largest guitar manufacturer in the world and from what I've seen, their Jacksons are well made. So I would rank them above the other Indonesian companies.But as you point out, guitar companies are constantly switching their manufacturing for some reason.
