General
Of course, Jackson's X Series should also include a seven-string Soloist with the popular Silverburst finish. With its nicely rounded top, this SLATHXM has the right looks but it offers a lot more for advanced rock and metal guitarists. Firstly, Jackson fitted this solid body with two Seymour Duncan active Blackouts humbuckers to give the amplified sound of your guitar more balance, a high output and a warm sound.
Jackson SLATXSD 3-7 Silverburst: expressive and rugged
Lead guitarists will find this silver-and-black SLATXSD a very smooth, highly expressive electric guitar. For instance, it has a Floyd Rose tremolo that allows for extreme dive bombing. Its playing comfort is the result of a couple of different factors. Its through-body neck with compound radius is such a feature that makes the Soloist a smooth instrument to play. As a result, you can easily play your licks up until the 24th fret, and bend single notes as well. The compound radius, beginning at 12 inches, makes sure you can also play the lower chords with ease, making the SLATXSD 3-7 a pleasure to play for rhythm guitarists as well.
Jackson Guitars
The renowned American brand, Jackson Guitars, was founded in 1980 by Grover Jackson, and rose to fame with its customised V-guitar for Randy Rhoads. Today, many famous guitarists play a Jackson. Jackson's guitars have an elegant design, a sharp headstock, shark fin position markers and a powerful sound that is perfect for metal music. The Soloist (with neck-through-body construction) is the most popular series, of which the X models are the more affordable versions.
