The Jackson Select Series SL1 Soloist solidbody electric guitar gives you the features you expect from a purpose-built shredding tone-machine - and more! The SL1 Soloist features Jackson's clean lines and highly functional setup, adding impressive touches such as a neck-through-body design for even more sustain, a classy compound radius ebony fingerboard, and a Floyd Rose Original tremolo. In addition to its maple neck and alder body, this axe also features three great-sounding humbucking pickups (two stacked) for monster tone. Get your hands on a SL1 Soloist today!

Jackson Select Series SL1 Soloist Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:
  • Neck-through design
  • Weapon of choice
  • Stellar components and construction

Neck-through design
This guitar owes its great tone and sustain in great part to something you won't even notice at first glance: a neck-through-body design. The quartersawn hard rock maple neck, paired with an ebony fingerboard (adorned with mother of pearl shark fin inlays, no less) doesn't just join the body; it's actually part of the body! This configuration contributes to the sustain of the SL1 in a big way, since the entire guitar is integrated. You also get two great-sounding, high-output Seymour Duncan Classic Stack stacked humbuckers, with a TB4 humbucker in the bridge position. Add cool black hardware and a genuine Floyd Rose Original double-locking trem, and you're ready to rock!

Weapon of choice
From Def Leppard's Phil Collen and Rick Savage to James Root of Slipknot and Stone Sour and Derrick Green of Sepultura (just to name a few), some of the most formidable axe-slingers in rock have used Jackson guitars to generate their fretboard fireworks - for good reason! Jackson guitars are designed from the ground up for monster tone, amazing playability, and rock-solid reliability every time they take the stage or hit the studio. Of course, it doesn't hurt to look good, either; if you're looking for a visually stunning instrument to impress your audience and show that you mean business, you want a Jackson!

Stellar components and construction
What makes Jackson the solidbody electric guitar of choice for so many players? Start with the neck: high-quality hard rock maple with a comfortable, fast carve, it's joined to a premium ebony compound radius fingerboard and optimized for blazing leads and massive chords alike. Jackson guitar bodies are designed with killer tone and eye-catching looks in mind, providing distinctive body shapes while staying lightweight enough to play all night. Jackson uses premium Seymour Duncan pickups for ample output so you can get the most out of your amp. Top-flite hardware is another Jackson hallmark, including highly stable trems and dependable tuning machines.
