A Highly Playable, Killer Guitar!

The Jackson SL2H Soloist is a part of Jackson's Select Series - and it's one serious axe. When you want full-on rock tone, turn to the SL2H Soloist. Not only does it have a fast-playing maple neck with sustain-inducing neck-through-body design, its body's made with lightweight alder for even more sustain. Plus, you can be sure you won't be short on sound thanks to two Seymour Duncan humbucking pickups and a Floyd Rose Original tremolo. Black hardware offers character, while mother-of-pearl shark fin inlays give the Jackson SL2H Soloist some growl.

Jackson SL2H Soloist at a Glance:
  • Weapon of choice
  • Stellar components and construction
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: hard rock maple with a comfortable, fast carve, it's joined to a compound-radius ebony 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 bridges and dependable tuning machines.
