Jackson made in India? | Thread profile

Uhm.. I was planning on buying a jackson dinky/rhoads... but in most of the reviews i read that the dinky was made in india? Does Jackson get their Dinkys done here?

Dude, they are made in your city. I'm not sure if they are Dinkys, but Jacksons are. Tansen is / used to be OEM for Jackson, if I'm not off the mark.

Now Harmony does it.. Thats all.. But there are MADE IN US Jacksons too.. Tansen used to make look alikes..

They didnt make look alikes They had a bonafide Jackson OEM factory where they made the lower priced Jackson lines..like Fender gets Squiers made in lower cost destinations. They also sold some of them locally without the Jackson decal at lower cost...for eg the Tansen I have has a Jackson licenced Floyd Rose..which you cant buy in the market and is only used on Jacksons own products.

Yup it used to be made by their indian OEM .. Tansen .. But now the deal is off ... as the quality of tansen was supposedly bad .........

Harmony is continueing that trend though...

Hey wansnt Harmony some way related to Tansen ....... As i Remember today they make custom made tansen stuffs ......... Do ya ppl think Tulsi dude can get some partnership with some big brand ????

Tulasi has a 1 room shop and small workshop...his stuff is hand crafted..any big brand would need mass production...

What you have heard is absolutely incorrect my friend. There is no jackson manufactured here niether there any dealers around. You can get a copy of jackson from Tulsi etc... You can get one through your friend in US. If you are getting Jackson DXMG Dinky then its too good. I was early going for it but had to later settle down with Ibanez S470DX. By settle down ..i didnt mean compromised.

u do get REAL jacksons in Mumbai go 2 bajaoo.com. they hav the DXMG. But I did mail them for better models like the Dk2 Dinky and the RR3 and btw , their owner is Ashu from Liquid Groove ( I prefer to call him Govinda !!!!! )
