One of the most influential and respected players in the world,
Marty Friedman’s impactful and game-changing contributions
to heavy metal and guitar in general continue to inspire
generations of musicians and music fans to this day. He defined
modern guitar playing with Jason Becker in Cacophony, was
a key element in the wildly successful rise of thrash pioneers
Megadeth, and with his “Marty-esque” improvisations and exotic
fusion of Eastern and Western music, has achieved global
success as a solo artist.
Jackson® continues our longstanding relationship with
Friedman by collaborating with the virtuoso on the Pro Series
Signature Marty Friedman MF-1.
This 24.75”-scale signature model is loaded with great features
to match the demanding needs of an elite and intricate player
like Friedman.
Friedman’s signature MF-1 features a resonant mahogany with
a striking cracked mirror top. A mahogany set-neck features a
scarf joint and graphite-reinforcement rods to protect against
environmental depredations. A bound 12” radius ebony
fingerboard with 22 jumbo frets and pearloid block inlays is an
ideal playing surface for swift licks or articulate chord work.
Marty Friedman dual passive EMG® MF signature humbucking
pickups deliver a sound that sings and screams. This axe is also
equipped with two volume and two tone controls as well as a
three-way toggle switch to wrangle all of the subtle nuances out
of your guitar tone. The Jackson TOM-style adjustable bridge
with anchored tailpiece and die-cast locking tuners creates
improved intonation and enhanced sustain.
Never fear being upstaged with the all-new cracked Purple
Mirror finish, complete with 3-ply white/abalone/white body
binding, all-black hardware and a reverse Jackson 3x3 (3 over,
3 under) AT-1 black headstock.
