General
Ladies and djentlemen, make way for a very special guitar. The Jackson Misha Mansoor USA Signature HT8 Juggernaut is a very limited edition electric guitar with just thirty being made available worldwide! This 8-string Jackson is the ultimate instrument for the progressive musician who wants to let their creativity run free. Two potent Bare Knuckle humbuckers offer sparkling cleans or powerful distortion. The low F# doesn't muddy the sound, so all of the notes retain their character. Unsurprisingly, the model comes with a case, case candy, and a Custom Shop certificate of authenticity signed by Misha Mansoor.
HT8 Juggernaut Limited Edition: top-quality components
This is one of the top models from Jackson, something that you can see, feel and hear in every aspect of its design. The black ebony fretboard has a 20-inch, flat fretboard radius that offers optimal playing comfort. Excellent tuning stability and intonation are down to the machine heads and bridge that are made by the renowned Hipshot company. The strings have a pleasingly tight feel thanks to a scale length of 27 inches that adds to the instrument's playability. Another nice detail is the Luminlays that help you navigate the fretboard on a dark stage.
Misha Mansoor: a versatile musician
