Frequently Asked Questions
The Speed neck is thinner and flatter than many Jackson necks, making it geared towards faster playing, but might feel less substantial for some.
Like most gloss finishes, it's susceptible to scratches, so a polish and careful handling are recommended to keep it looking its best.
The build quality is surprisingly good for the price, with decent fretwork and solid hardware, though some minor cosmetic imperfections are possible.
