General
If you're into quick leads and heavy rhythm parts, look no further than Jackson's X Series. This SLXT Q, for instance, has a comfortable, slender neck that makes it all possible. Its rosewood fretboard, meanwhile, boasts a compound radius that runs from 12 to 16", so you'll be able to play stable chords on the lower frets, while you can easily bend strings higher up. Beneath its gorgeous quilted maple top, this Jackson Soloist XT features a neck-thru construction with an extended maple neck and two basswood wings.
SLXT Q Natural Quilt: a stable yet lightweight guitar with a full sound
Even though this electric guitar from the X Series is remarkably lightweight, it produces a balanced, rich core sound that's supported by two passive Duncan Designed humbuckers for a modern, hi-gain amplified output. The SLXT owes its excellent intonation, tuning stability and adequate sustain to a Compensated TOM bridge. Boasting an excellent price to quality ratio, this Jackson solid-body guitar is certainly an attractive option for advanced guitarists who love to play metal and rock music.
Jackson Guitars
The renowned American brand Jackson Guitars was founded by Grover Jackson in 1980 and initially made a name for itself with the V guitar it built for Randy Rhoads. These days, many famous guitarists play a Jackson guitar. The instruments usually have an elegant shape, a sharp headstock, sharkfin position markers and a powerful sound that's great for metal and hard rock. The X Series offers affordable versions of Jackson's most popular guitar models.
