Use a standard 1/4" (6.35mm) instrument cable to connect the guitar's output jack, located on the side of the body, to your amplifier's input. Ensure both the guitar's volume and amplifier's volume are set to a low level before powering on the amplifier to prevent sudden loud noises.

3.3 പ്രാരംഭ ട്യൂണിംഗ്

The Jackson Dinky JS12 features a tremolo bridge. When tuning, it is recommended to use an electronic tuner. Tune each string to its standard pitch (E-A-D-G-B-e, from thickest to thinnest). Due to the tremolo system, tuning one string may slightly affect the others. Repeat the tuning process a few times until all strings hold their pitch consistently.
