The Jackson® name has always been synonymous with state-of the-art guitar technology, and the company continues to lead the
way in crafting instruments that exceed the demands of today’s
most discerning players. Melding classic style with modern
materials and construction, the Jackson X Series Soloist™ SL3X
DX is yet another bold step in the world of high-tech guitars.
A stylishly contoured poplar body and pure Jackson neck-through body construction ensure ergonomic comfort during long sets along
with monstrous sustain and smooth playing all the way up to the
24th jumbo fret. Graphite-reinforcement rods run through the maple
neck, protecting it against environmental depredations, while the
ultra-fast 12”-16” compound radius bound laurel fingerboard is built
from the get-go for easy chording and riffing near the nut and rapid,
fret-out-free leads as you move up the neck.
The SL3X DX comes loaded with a select power trio of Duncan
Designed™ pickups; high-output HR-101 Hot Rails single-coil
pickups in the middle and neck positions are matched to a powerful
HB-103B humbucking bridge pickup for complementary harmonics
and highly dynamic responsiveness. Harness the sonic horsepower
of these pickups with five-way pickup blade switching and single
volume and tone controls.
The recessed Floyd Rose® Special double-locking tremolo bridge
system is fluidly easy to use, ensuring that your axe precisely
returns to its original tuning after every dive-bomb or flutter.
Stunningly wicked in an all-new Absynthe Frost finish, the X Series
Soloist SL3X DX bears Jackson’s traditional appointments—black
hardware, knurled dome-style control knobs, pearloid sharkfin
fingerboard inlays, zebra pickup bobbins and the famous Jackson
pointed 6-in-line black headstock.
