It is no surprise that the Jackson X Series Soloist SLX DX Crackle Electric Guitar stands as a testament to Jackson's legacy of cutting-edge guitar technology. Designed for the modern guitarist, this instrument combines innovative materials and construction with a striking visual appeal, featuring the brand-new Silver Mercury and Bloodshot Crackle finishes. Each finish is uniquely reactive, ensuring that no two guitars are alike, making your instrument as distinctive as your playing style. The Soloist SLX DX Crackle is crafted with a sleekly contoured basswood body, providing ergonomic comfort for extended playing sessions.
Its neck-through-body construction enhances sustain and playability, allowing smooth access to all 24 jumbo frets. The maple neck is fortified with graphite-reinforcement rods, offering robust protection against environmental changes, while the scarf joint design increases tension behind the nut, eliminating the need for string trees or retainer bars. The 12"-16" compound radius bound laurel fingerboard is engineered for versatility, facilitating easy chording and riffing near the nut and enabling rapid, fret-out-free leads higher up the neck. This guitar is equipped with a pair of high-output Jackson humbucking pickups, delivering a powerful, crunchy tone perfect for both searing lead work and assertive rhythm playing.
The pickups' output can be precisely shaped using the single volume and tone controls, along with a three-way blade switch, giving you complete command over your sound. The recessed Floyd Rose Special double-locking tremolo bridge system ensures that your guitar returns to its original tuning after every dive-bomb, providing fluid and reliable performance. Traditional Jackson appointments, such as black hardware, dome-style control knobs, and pearloid sharkfin fingerboard inlays, complement the guitar's bold aesthetic. The iconic Jackson pointed 6-in-line headstock completes the look, making the SLX DX Crackle a standout choice for any guitarist seeking high-tech performance and style.
