Gus G.’s Signature Jackson San Dimas

Collaborating with metal icons such as Ozzy Osbourne, Steel Panther, Dream Evil, and his own band, Firewind, Gus G. has cemented his position as one of the world’s top guitarists. An innovator by nature, Gus G. has expanded the boundaries of metal, pushing the musical envelope during his work with other stars and on his three solo albums. And Gus is collaborating again, this time with Jackson, to release his custom spec’d Pro Series Gus G. Signature San Dimas. A unique take on the San Dimas model, this sleek-looking axe is hot-rodded with Gus G. Signature Titan humbuckers and a Gotoh 510, for maximum shredibility. Take it from us at Sweetwater: the Gus G. Signature San Dimas is an all-out metal machine — Gus-approved!

Signature Titan humbuckers

The Gus G. Signature San Dimas features Gus’s custom Titan humbucking pickups — passive output tone monsters. Featuring Alnico V magnets, the Titans have a pronounced and musical midrange boost that adds a forward, aggressive edge to power chords and ignites scorching leads. And the Gus G. Signature San Dimas sports a Gotoh Custom 510 bridge for super-stable whammy action and epic divebombing.

Neck-through construction

This guitar doesn’t just have stellar electronics. It has a one-piece maple neck that runs through the entire body. On either side of the maple neck, a pair of mahogany wings are attached to provide extra resonance. Neck-through designs are very stable already, but Gus G. and Jackson upped the ante by adding two graphite reinforcement rods to ensure the neck is as stable as possible.

Easy tone shaping

Dialing in your perfect tone on the Gus G. Signature San Dimas couldn’t be easier. It’s equipped with a traditional 3-way pickup selector switch that lets you pick from the neck, bridge, and a combination of both humbuckers. Since it only has a volume pot, you can focus on playing instead of spending time getting your tone just right. This guitar is equipped with chrome hardware, an adjustable bridge, and an anchored tailpiece.

Jackson Pro Series Gus G. Signature San Dimas Solidbody Electric Guitar Features:

  • Seymour Duncan Gus G. Signature Titan high-output passive pickups produce an aggressive midrange bite
  • Neck-through construction with graphite reinforcement makes for a stable neck
  • Mahogany body adds resonance and presence
  • 24 jumbo frets give you two octaves of shredding space
  • 3-position switch and single volume pot make shaping your tone easy
  • Gotoh 501 tremolo system provides tuning stability
  • Scarf-jointed headstock resists breaking if dropped

What is Certified Open Box Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call "Certified Open Box" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

Certified Open Box (also known as a demo) means we’ve had it out of the box for our YouTube channel, displayed at events, tested in our studio, or maybe it was in a customer’s hands for a few days and isn’t ‘factory fresh’ as a result. Every Certified Open Box item we sell has Sweetwater’s 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty and has been tested and verified up to ‘new’ specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it’s in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

Note: While Certified Open Box items from Jackson do not include the Fender Musical Instruments Corporation warranty, you can shop with confidence knowing that this item is backed and covered by Sweetwater’s 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty.

When you buy a Certified Open Box item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!

Reviews

Jackson Gus G
I'm very fortunate to be playing this guitar. I'm a Gus G fan but with all the research I did for this guitar I knew I was going to love it and man, do I ever. The components are top notch. Don't trust the specs on thia page though as it n eds updating. Yes it has a Gotoh bridge but it's not just a plastic nut, it's an actual TUSQ-XL which is the best in the business. A lot of guitar for the money. The neck is not Ibanez flat (thank goodness), but it's definitely made for speed and is amazing as an unfinished neck. Super smooth. I love that it's neck-through as well. The pickups are certainly some of my favorite I've ever played. (I've played for 26 years). The Blackfire pickups are considered hot but
I've found them to be very articulate. Very similar to a Dimarzio Tone Zone bridge and an Air Norton in the neck. The neck pickup on the clean channel has no bite for a pickup as hot as it is. Such a beautiful sound. The response on them is perfect and reacts well to how hard you play. Again, you're getting a lot of guitar for the price point. Do not be put off by the "Made In China" or the non-aluminum frets. It's an amazing sounding guitar and I'm really glad I was pining after it like I was. It exceeded my expectations. Also working with Alberto on the purchase was great. I had it pre-ordered months ago and couldn't grab it at the time but could now and stayed in touch with him throughout. Don't hesitate, pick this guitar up and play it loud!!
Excellent guitar
This is a not only a great looking guitar, it sounds great as well. The neck is easy to play and the humbuckers sound smooth and chimney and not dark and harsh. Also the description Jackson gives is a plastic nut. Like the other review said, it is a Graph tech nut, and not cheap plastic. This is a lot of guitar for the money.
