Jackson American Series Virtuoso HT 6-String Electric Guitar with Alder Body (Red Crystal)
Jackson, founded in Southern California in 1980, was the
first brand to cater to the needs of hard rock and metal virtuosos by offering
instruments with feature sets designed for high-velocity performance. The Jackson
American Series Virtuoso HT 6-String Right-Handed Electric Guitar is designed
to inspire players all over the world, and it includes all of the vital
elements that today's high-velocity players require. The model begins with an
alder body and a sculpted 'hand-shake' heel for ergonomic comfort during long
sessions.
Highlights
The five-piece multi-laminated caramelized maple, maple, caramelized maple,
maple, and caramelized maple neck is bolted with graphite reinforcement rods,
ensuring unwavering stability up to the 24th fret. The ultra-fast 12 to 16-inch
compound radius streaked ebony fingerboard with rolled edges is designed from
the start for simple chording and riffing at the nut and quick scale runs as
you progress up the neck. Luminlay side dots guarantee that you always land on
the correct fret, even on the darkest levels, and a heel-mounted truss rod
adjustment mechanism enables for rapid neck relief adjustments on the spot. The
HH pickup combination includes a Seymour Duncan JB TB-4 humbucking bridge
pickup that booms with a hot-rod attitude and strong bass tone. In contrast,
the Seymour Duncan '59 SH-1N neck pickup produces a glassy treble tone and
scooped mids that work well in a variety of genres. A five-way blade switch and
dome-style volume and tone knobs make up the user-friendly control
configuration. Other high-end features include a Hipshot hardtail bridge for
consistent tuning stability, Gotoh MG-T locking tuners, and Dunlop dual-locking
strap buttons. The American Series Virtuoso HT, available in Red Crystal,
features color-matched, bound pointed headstocks and black hardware.
Neck and Pickups
Bolt-on construction connects the neck to the body of the guitar using screws
or bolts, providing for greater control, attack, and sustain. The neck has an
alternating 5-piece caramelized maple and maple design for a distinctive
appearance and improved strength to prevent warping from excessive temperature
fluctuations. The JB '59 pickup combination is as classic as it gets. The
immensely popular JB pickup produces a large, hefty sound with sustain and rich
harmonics, and the '59 produces beautiful notes and clarity. Combine the two to
achieve the ultimate in versatility, capable of handling a wide range of genres
from country to blues, punk, and metal. The pickups are affixed to the body for
greater resonance and vibration transfer, which adds power and endurance to
your tone.
