Product Description
Born in Southern California in 1980, Jackson was the first brand to embrace the needs of hard rock and metal virtuosos by providing instruments with feature sets that catered to high-velocity playing.
Originally called the Jackson Pro Plus Series Dinky, Jackson has continued to revolutionize its high-performance craft over the last 40 years, while dominating the metal landscape as the industry's leading shred machines. The five-piece multi-laminated caramelized maple/maple neck is bolted-on with graphite-reinforcement rods that provide rock-solid stability all the way up to the 24th fret. Luminlay side dots ensure you always land on the right fret even on the darkest stages, while a heel-mount truss rod adjustment wheel allows for quick neck relief tweaks on the fly.
The HH pickup configuration features a Seymour Duncan JB TB-4 humbucking bridge pickup that roars with hot-rodded attitude and a powerful low end, while the Seymour Duncan '59 SH-1N neck pickup radiates with glassy treble tone and scooped mids that perform well across a multitude of genres. The intuitive control layout consists of a five-way blade switch, and dome-style knobs for volume and tone.
Key Features
- Bolt-On Five-Piece Multi-Laminated Caramelized Maple/Maple Neck - Bolt-on construction joins the neck to the body of the guitar with screws or bolts, allowing for more control, attack and sustain. The neck features an alternating 5-piece caramelized maple/maple design for a uniquely attractive look and added strength to protect against warping from extreme temperature fluctuations.
- Seymour Duncan JB TB-4/'59 SH-1N Pickups - It doesn’t get more classic than the JB/’59 pickup combination. The incredibly popular JB pickup brings big, heavy sound, sustain and rich harmonics, while the ’59 offers sweet sounds and clarity. Put these two together to create the ultimate in versatility, capable of handling a wide spectrum of genres from country to blues to punk to metal. The pickups are mounted to the body for increased resonance and vibration transfer, adding more punch and sustain to your sound.
- Ultra-Fast 12-16" Compound Radius-Streaked Ebony Fingerboard - This is built from the get-go for easy chording and riffing near the nut and speedy scale runs as you move up the neck.
- Floyd Rose 1500 Series Double-Locking Tremolo Bridge - Reliable tuning stability throughout daring and aggressive playing theatrics.
