Jackson Soloist SLXT Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:
  • High-performance design puts you in touch with your music
  • Ultra-responsive TonePros bridge with string-through-body design
  • An excellent set of EMG pickups

High-performance design puts you in touch with your music
One of Jackson's mottos is "Choose wisely. Play better." That's not just hype either. The fact is, a well made guitar, like a Soloist SLXT, gives you a closer connection to your music. For instance, the Soloist SLXT features a compound radius fretboard, which is more rounded at the nut and flatter higher up the neck. This makes it easy to fret chords near the nut, while opening up the fretboard for soloing. The flatter higher frets also let you keep your action low, without bottoming out when you bend notes. And thanks to its neck-through-body design, the Soloist SLXT also gives you epic sustain.

Ultra-responsive TonePros bridge with string-through-body design
If you love the stability and ultra-fast response of a hard-tail bridge, then you'll love the tight action of the Soloist SLXT. Jackson gave the Soloist SLXT a high-quality TonePros adjustable bridge. This highly stable setup locks down your action, keeps your intonation solid, and your ensures that your harmonics are always crisp. Combined with the its neck-though construction and string-through-body design, the Soloist SLXT gives you truly epic sustain!

An excellent set of EMG pickups
Great feel is only part of the equation. Jackson knows this better than just about any guitar maker. That's why they've equipped the Soloist SLXT with a set of extra-hot EMG humbucking pickups. An EMG HZ H4-AN pickup at the neck and a HZ H4-B at the bridge give you well-balanced tone with tight bass, glassy mids and crunching highs.
