Model: 2914104 | Pro Series
The Pro Series DK2QHT Dinky features an alder body with a striking 1/8" 4A quilt maple cap, bound bolt-on neck (flat-sawn) with graphite reinforcement, compound-radius rosewood fingerboard (12"-16") with 24 jumbo frets, direct-mount Seymour Duncan® JB
(bridge) and '59 (neck) humbucking pickups with five-way switching, single volume and tone controls, stylish headstock binding, direct-mount Jackson HT-6 hard-tail string-through bridge, locking Jackson tuners and Dunlop® locking strap pins.
Jackson Pro series instruments are exactly that—pro-level guitars for pro-level players. Neck-through-body models feature hand-rubbed oil neck finishes and graphite neck reinforcement rods for the ultimate in sleek playability and rock-solid sustain and stability. Bolt-on-neck models feature an innovative "wrap-around" three-bolt neck joint with remarkable strength, style and feel.
Jackson Pro series guitars are built with the very best parts for pro tone, stability and durability for stage and studio alike. Nowhere is this more evident than the bridge. Pro series guitars feature Floyd Rose® 1000 Series tremolos, Jackson Hi-Mass hard-tail and string-through bridges.
Pro series models feature compound-radius fingerboards. Jackson pioneered the use of this innovative design, in which the fingerboard gradually flattens toward the heel from its more rounded profile at the nut. This makes for comfortable and natural-feeling chording and riffing near the nut, with optimal shred articulation and bending nearer the heel.
Pro series models present Jackson players with an alluring assortment of stylistic features and options. These include ebony, maple and rosewood fingerboards; sharkfin, offset-dot and "piranha" fingerboard inlays; deep solid colors and beautifully figured tops; and, of course, the classic Jackson six-in-line headstock.

Yes, talk about quick. I just got my boxed copy of 10.1 too... what a rip
Didn't it seem like SuSE 10.1 just came out yesterday? Well, less than a month ago. All of Mr. Schr?ter's message can be read @ http://lists.opensuse.org/archive/op...-Jun/0003.htmlSUSE Linux 10.2 Alpha 1 is available
It has one major problem, but it is highly usable apart from that.
* The installation using the GUI interface does not work,
please select "Text Mode" when booting from CD media (#183827)
* download of release notes does fail (server side issue)
The difference to SL 10.1 is mainly in version updates in some areas (esp. the
YaST package manager and KDE).
For details on delta ISOs, please read:
Please read the complete list of Known Issues at:
Have a lot of fun!
Yes, talk about quick. I just got my boxed copy of 10.1 too... what a rip
