Jackson SLATXMGQ 3-6 Trans Red: radius, weight, and sound
Thanks to the popular Jackson compound radius of the rosewood fretboard you can easily bend strings high up on the neck, while still playing your chords and riffs in the lower positions. The comfortable light weight of the Soloist is thanks to the body wings made of linden. In order to amplify your guitar sound in a balanced and stable manner, this 3-6 solid body is fitted with the legendary combination of two active EMG humbuckers - an '81 bridge pickup and an '85 neck pickup.

Jackson's guitars have an elegant design, a sharp headstock, shark fin position markers, and a powerful sound that is perfect for metal music.
