***More information on Jacksons and Charvels, how to decipher model names, list of non-guitar Charvel and Jackson products, reference materials, and links***
Jackson Super Dinky: Not the Japanese domestic ‘Super Dinky’ which is what we’d consider a ‘Fusion’ but a short lived ‘smaller and lighter.. ultra comfortable and compact’ Dinky with a thicker rounder neck, quoted at 21mm at the first fret from the 1996 catalog.
- Jackson SDK1: USA made. Poplar or satin finish ash body. AT-1 headstock. 22 frets, dot inlay, rosewood or maple neck, Org. Floyd Rose tremolo. Jackson JP 11/JS4/JP 10 HSH pickups.

- Jackson SDK2: MIJ of above. Poplar (ash) body. Rosewood or maple fret board with dots, 22 frets. JT-500 tremolo, JX 2N/WP112/JX 2B HSH pickups. Does not sport a ‘Professional’ logo. Finishes: graphite, cobalt blue satin, read pearl satin
Jackson San Dimas: This is more of a Charvel thing, but Jackson does have a few guitars under this label. These are more traditional super-strat styled guitars with strat bodies.
- Adrian Smith SD: Jackson classifies these as San Dimas later. (See the entry under the Dinky category for early 'Dinky' models)

Floyd Rose 1000 tremolo (top mount). Vol, tone three-way toggle. Dunlop strap locks. Chrome hardware. Finishes: red sparkle
Jackson Fusion: A short lived but interesting line of guitars. They are all bolt on ‘Dinky’ body 24.75 scale guitars with 24 frets and a locking tremolo. They also feature basswood bodies and sculpted heels, and maple necks with ebony or rosewood fretboards. Perhaps to take on a more Gibson-ish tone, many of these featured humbucking/rail pickups in the neck and middle positions. The last was the Fusion ‘FX1’ from around 1996. Have slightly (very) thicker necks. a 1st fret 19mm, at 12th 21mm.
- Jackson Fusion (USA): 24.75 scale bolt on guitar debuting in the 1990 catalog with basswood body ebony fretboard 24 frets, and pearl shark fin inlays. Included JE-1500 midrange sweep, and HSS J-200/J-200/J-50B pickups. Oil finished neck, pearl Jackson logo and sculpted heel joint. JT-590 tremolo.

Schaller Jt-590 tremolo. This is aside from the neck inlays, spec’d exactly to a Jackson Fusion STD and Charvel Fusion Custom. Finishes: candy blue, cherry sunburst, metallic black, trans red, trans violet, deep metallic blue, snow white, deep metallic red
- Jackson Fusion Professional Std: A toned down aesthetically yet spec’d identical Fusion. Basswood body, rosewood fretboard with offset pearl dots, HSS J-200R/J-200R/J-85 pickups. Jt-590 tremolo from 1992 until 1994 where it uses the Takeuchi JT-580. Headstock matches finish. This model was later renamed FX1 (see entry). Finishes: black, deep metallic red, candy blue, pearl white
- Jackson Fusion Professional HH: A unique mahogany body Fusion. Mahogany body except for a few in the first year 1992 which may be basswood. Bound rosewood fretboard with offset pearl dots, HH Jackson J-92C/ J-50N pickups and Takeuchi JT-580 LP tremolo. Has vol, tone, and three-way toggle. Finishes: black, trans red, black cherry
- Jackson Fusion Professional LT: Nothing to see here, just a Fusion STD again. Wait, actually this 1992 only model has one difference. Basswood body, rosewood fretboard with offset dots, HSS J-200R/J-200R/J-85 pickups. Headstock matches finish. Takeuchi JT-580 tremolo. I need more research here, it seems all that differs is that this guitar never had the Schaller tremolo option. (Known) Finishes: deep metallic red, CR, SW, CB
- Jackson Fusion Professional SS: A 1992 only mid range Fusion. Basswood body, rosewood fretboard with dots, HSS J-100VS/J-100VS/ J-92C pickups. Takeuchi JT-580 tremolo. One vol and five-way switch. Notably this model is one of few with middle centered dots and single coil pickups. Finishes: snow white, CB, MB, FR
- Jackson Fusion Professional SX: A 1992 only mid range fusion with an HSH pickup option. Basswood body, rosewood fretboard with dots, Jackson J-92C/ J-100/ J-50N HSH pickups. JT-580 tremolo. Finishes: red, metallic black, candy blue, SW

Headstock matches finish. Has vol, tone, and three-way switch (as opposed to the Fusion HH toggle). Seems to be a Jackson version of the Charvel Fusion Plus. Finishes: natural, SW, BC, B, FR, TA, trans withe, TS, TR
- Jackson Fusion Professional SP: Or possibly ‘Fusion Special’. A 1992 only Fusion that does the inverse of a Charvel Fusion Deluxe. Basswood body, rosewood fretboard with dots, SH J-85/J-200R pickups with the bridge pickup slanted. Takeuchi JT-580 tremolo. Vol, bladed three-way. Finishes: black, white, candy, blue, red

- Jackson Fusion FX1: ‘Professional Series’ a rebranded Fusion Std from 1996. Basswood body, 24 fret rosewood fretboard with offset dots, JT-580LP, Jackson JHR-1/JP10 HSS pickups. Finishes: black, cobalt blue
Jackson JTX: Jackson JTX: Jackson’s version of the Charvel TTX also from 1993. A radical single-cut guitar with extra switches for more tonal controls.
- Jackson JTX Professional: Standard JTX (but not a ‘Pro’) from 1993 only. Basswood body (ash on trans finishes), bolt-on maple neck, maple fretboard with dot inlay, 24 frets, Jackson J-55/ J-100VS (slanted) HS pickups, Takeuchi JT-580 tremolo.

Vol, three-way switch, two-way series/parallel mini switch. Headstock matches finish. Finishes: black, trans pearl purple, deep metallic red, snow white
Jackson Infinity: A somewhat hot rodded take on a Gibson LP type guitar. 1992-93 only and Professional series.
- Jackson Infinity Professional Pro: Highest end Infinity. African mahogany, ¾ figured maple top, mahogany neck (set neck), bound rosewood fretboard with abalone diamond (’92) or dots (’93). 22 frets. Jackson J-92C/ J-50M HH pickups. Schaller Jt-590 tremolo. Vol, tone, three-way toggle. Headstock matches finish. Finishes: trans blue, cherry sunburst, trans red, trans violet (’92), starglo sunburst (’92), trans black (’93)

Finishes: deep metallic blue, deep metallic red, black, magenta.
Note: The 1993 catalog shows a variant that seems to be an XL but with creme pickup rings and toggle. I do not believe it's a Pro because it only has dot inlays and you can clearly see it has JT-580 instead of Schaller. Who knows really..
Jackson Futura Bass: A line of fast playing and deeply contoured basses based off of the Kip Winger model. Professional series. There is a Grover Jackson Futura, but that will be covered in the Japanese Domestic section. Nut width: 1 5/8. Thickness: 1st fret 20mm, 12th 23mm

Jackson JPB Basses: A short lived line of ‘boutique’ inspired basses, likely due to a resemblance to the Marleaux ‘Consat’. You won’t see any in catalogs but they are seen in the 1995 price lists in three variants. Perhaps only 1200 ever made. BTW, they are 'Professional Series' too, complete with a truss rod cover stating the model. (See reference material on Jacksonextras page)

Jackson Stealth: A 90s only Professional series of lighter thin bodied basswood bolt-on shredders. Also perhaps maybe sort of inspired by the Ibanez S Series…shhh! Notice how reasonably close (except for the HX) the variants are. They don't really have fancy electronics or aesthetics outside of transparent finish options. After 1996 Jackson briefly calls it “Thinline” only to revert back to Stealth in 1997 before it’s gone forever. *Sniff*
