Jackson American Series Soloist SL2 HT 6-String Right-Handed Electric Guitar (Satin Black)

Founded in 1980 in Southern California, Jackson emerged as a pioneer, addressing the needs of hard rock and metal virtuosos with instruments tailored for high-velocity playing. Over four decades, Jackson has continually evolved its high-performance craftsmanship, establishing itself as the foremost brand in the metal landscape, renowned for its leading shred machines. The Jackson American Series marks a significant chapter in the brand's legacy, representing its inaugural made-in-Corona flagship product line. With all the essential attributes, the Jackson American Series Soloist SL2 HT 6-String Right-Handed Electric Guitar sets a new standard in the premium high-performance category, serving as an inspiration for players worldwide. The American SL2 features an alder body paired with a sustain-enhancing through-body three-piece maple neck, fortified with graphite-reinforcement rods for ultimate stability against temperature and humidity-induced stress. With a 12 to 16-inch compound radius rolled ebony fingerboard hosting 24 jumbo stainless-steel frets and inverse mother-of-pearl sharkfin inlays, it facilitates highly technical lightspeed playing. Luminlay glow-in-the-dark side dots ensure fingerboard guidance even on dimly lit stages, and a heel-mount truss rod adjustment wheel allows quick neck relief tweaks. Powered by robust EMG 81 and EMG 85 humbucking pickups, this instrument delivers a forceful punch while maintaining clarity and enhanced note definition crucial for modern metal. The guitar features a versatile three-way blade pickup switch and single volume and tone controls, along with premium components like a Hipshot hardtail bridge system, Gotoh MG-T locking tuners, and Dunlop dual-locking strap buttons. Designed in the trademark metal style, the American Series Soloist SL2 HT boasts a Satin Black finish with color-matched Jackson pointy headstocks and black hardware.
