Soloist electric guitar from the Jackson X Series with Duncan Designed humbuckers
The Jackson X Series Soloist SLX DX Silverburst is a true workhorse designed for raw shredding and juicy high gain sounds. The Soloist features a slim, continuous maple speed neck and 12" - 16" compound fretboard radius for unmatched speed and playability in all positions of the 24-fret Indian Laurel fretboard. Two Duncan Designed HB-103 humbuckers provide the sound with that extra bit of pressure. The high number of windings and the use of ceramic magnets provide crystal-clear high-gain tightness and leads that cut through the mix. Lastly, the Jackson X Series Soloist SLX DX Silverburst features practical hardware in the form of solid die-cast tuners and a Floyd Rose Special Tremolo system including a locking nut.
Armed with Duncan Designed HB-103 humbuckers and Floyd Rose Special Tremolo, the Jackson X Series Soloist SLX DX Silverburst is all about merciless shredding.
The Jackson X Series Soloist SLX DX Silverburst at a glance:
Having tried playing MANY of these in my hands, it seems that the quality control out of the Jackson Indonesia factory is hit-or-miss. If you get a good unit without problems, it is a great guitar with a great sound for a great price! And the looks are so nice as well. The neck thru body construction is so smooth and sweet. However, you might get a dud that sounds horrible. Or it might have severe defects in the neck or locking nut. In my experience, about 50% are of poor quality.
