San Dimas electric guitar with agile handling
The basis of the Jackson 2 Minutes To Midnight Guitar is naturally the San Dimas preferred by Adrian Smith, whose construction Custom Shop Masterbuilder Dave "Red" Nichols realized with carefully selected woods. While the alder body with its classic lines sits comfortably on the player, the bolt-on Quartersawn Maple neck offers extremely agile playing characteristics for driving riffs and endless solos thanks to its narrow profile and Compund Radius fingerboard. The absolute highlight of the electric guitar is also the graphic finish handcrafted by Craig Fraser with the artwork of the 1984 hit single "2 Minutes To Midnight".
The bolt-on neck of the Jackson Adrian Smith 2 Minutes To Midnight promises agile playing characteristics.
With a DiMarzio Super Distortion Humbucker, the Jackson 2 Minutes to Midnight delivers classic NWOBHM sounds.
Juicy NWOBHM Sound
The Jackson USA Adrian Smith 2 Minutes To Midnight naturally delivers the juicy sound of the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal. The DiMarzio Super Distortion humbucker makes the guitar amp sweat and elicits an extremely fat Distortion with broadly placed mids, which puts both individual notes and chords strikingly in the room. The pickup also delivers convincing sounds in the clean channel, with the Volume and Tone controls helping to find the perfect setting.
Double Locking Tremolo
Of course, a high-quality hardware equipment completes the USA Signature Limited Edition Adrian Smith 2 Minutes To Midnight electric guitar from the Jackson Custom Shop. The bridge is the tried and tested Floyd Rose Original Double-Locking Tremolo, which is not only particularly smooth to handle, but also handles every action, no matter how violent, with a whammy bar and without any detuning. The classically styled headstock also features Gotoh tuners with Jackson branding for precise tuning of the signature guitar.
Gotoh tuners with Jackson logo promise an exact tuning of the electric guitar.
