Lean, mean, and equipped to scream, this Soloist brings to the forefront everything that makes the storied model great. The classic S-style shape, the neck-through construction, a genuine Floyd Rose that stays in tune for days, a set of high-output Seymour Duncan pickups, the iconic mother of pearl sharkfin inlays... it's all here, and made in the good ol' U.S. of A. The Seymour Duncan pickups in question are a JB in the bridge and an SSL-6 "Custom" in the neck and middle. The JB is one of Seymour's most popular and iconic pickups, and is not only high-output but also has a very distinct and powerful midrange characteristic that makes it perfect for high-gain settings, killing anything from classic '80s glam leads to modern shred and djent-y riffage. The neck and middle SSL-6s have the output to match it and sound very warm, thick, and powerful under gain, but retain just enough chime to sound reminiscent of your favorite "S"-type in the in-between positions. Overall, these pickups are built to rock, no questions asked. The Jackson neck profile is the perfect balance of shred-friendly while still having juuust enough meat to not feel like an absolute toothpick. Here at the shop, the .70 to .80 range is a very agreed-upon range of thickness for this balance, and we love how the neck feels with the smooth ebony fretboard. And the Floyd Rose they chose for this guitar in conjunction with the Gotoh locking tuners and rock-solid Floyd Rose locking nut stay in tune for days. This setup is prepared for any dive bombs and wild pulls you throw at it! This is simply an awesome American Jackson Soloist - we highly recommend checking this one out! Details Born in Southern California in 1980, Jackson was the first brand to embrace the needs of hard rock and metal virtuosos by providing instruments with feature sets that catered to high-velocity playing. Jackson has continued to revolutionize its high-performance craft over the last 40 years, while dominating the metal landscape as the industry's leading shred machines. The all-new Jackson American Series is the next chapter in Jackson's storied legacy, marking the first made-in-Corona flagship product line for the brand. Equipped with all the essential attributes, the American Series Soloist™ SL3 leads the way in establishing a new standard in the premium high-performance category as it inspires players across the globe. The American SL3's alder body is matched with a sustain-enhancing through-body three-piece maple neck that has a pair of graphite-reinforcement rods for the ultimate stability to resist temperature- and humidity-induced bending and warping. Hosting 24 jumbo frets and inverse mother of pearl sharkfin inlays, the 12"-16" compound radius rolled ebony fingerboard is designed for highly technical lightspeed playing - more curved by the nut for comfortable chording, it flattens out up the neck for increasingly fast playing and bends without fretting out. Luminlay® glow-in the-dark side dots provide exceptional fingerboard guidance even on the darkest stages, while a heel-mount truss rod adjustment wheel allows for quick neck relief tweaks on the fly. The HSS pickup configuration features a set of versatile Seymour Duncan® pickups that deliver tonal clout. The Seymour Duncan JB™ TB-4 bridge pickup roars with hot-rodded attitude and a powerful low end, while the Seymour Duncan Custom Flat Strat® SSL-6 RWRP Single-Coil middle and Seymour Duncan Custom Flat Strat® SSL-6 neck pickups radiate with glassy treble tone and scooped mids that perform well across a multitude of genres. Harness the sonic horsepower with a versatile five-way blade pickup switch and single volume and tone controls. Other premium features include a Floyd Rose® 1500 Series double-locking tremolo bridge system for reliable tuning stability throughout daring and aggressive playing theatrics, Gotoh® MG-T locking tuners and Dunlop® dual-locking strap buttons. Designed with our trademark metal style, the American Series Soloist SL3 comes in striking Gloss Black, Platinum Pearl, Riviera Blue or Satin Slime Green finishes with color matched Jackson pointy headstocks and black hardware.
