There are better guitars then Bloodsport Jacknife but it feels like that Bloodsport Jacknife is truly a very good guitar in its price range. Axl could've maybe invested a bit more into Bloodsport Jacknife development phase and that would make Bloodsport Jacknife awesome, but it's by no means a bad guitar as it is.

Carefully chosen set of features makes Axl's Bloodsport Jacknife a really good guitar. Some might say that it lacks some of the features, but Bloodsport Jacknife's features still fulfill an average musician's needs. You won't be wrong to go for this axe 'cause it has a wide array of different sounds and a lot of possibilities for tweaking the sound to make it yours. Getting one of Axl's Bloodsport Jacknife is a way to go.

You can plug this baby into a toaster and, God knows, maybe it would sound as great as it does with any other amp. Seriously, Axl made a Bloodsport Jacknife, a terrific sounding instrument that deserves all the praise it can get. There is simply no need to change any stock-provided parts built into this axe, as it sounds professional all the way. Axl's Bloodsport Jacknife is a flawlessly sounding instrument.

A bit more care and time would make this instrument a class better, but Axl's Bloodsport Jacknife doesn't look bad, nor does play badly. It stays in tune reasonably well, and can provide a not-too-demanding musician some good experience. Was it the price, or some other factor, but it feels that the hardware could have been done better; nevertheless, Bloodsport Jacknife is after all a good guitar which is not too hard to handle and set up.

Playing live, Bloodsport Jacknife will perform well and will not let you down. It is fairly reliable instrument both in studio and on stage, and will be a long term companion, as it is built to last. Axl has made a solid instrument that you will be happy with, and can depend on right from the start. Needs no backup as it has proven to be built really well.
