Jackson American Series Virtuoso Electric Guitar - Specific Ocean Reviews
Oozing with high-performance appointments, the Jackson American Series Virtuoso is built for speed, precision, and high-octane tone. Its Dinky-shaped alder body fits you like a second skin, making this solidbody electric guitar feel like an extension of your body. Its 5-piece caramelized maple Speed Neck features a comfortable satin urethane finish, topped by a lightning-fast compound-radius, 24-fret streaked ebony fingerboard. A classic Seymour Duncan humbucker pairing voices the Virtuoso for everything from fusion to hard rock to full-tilt metal. You also get coil splitting, giving rise to a range of humbucker and single-coil tones. The Virtuoso comes with top-of-the-line hardware, including an upgraded Floyd Rose 1500 Series double-locking tremolo and rock-solid Gotoh MG-T locking tuners. A satin finish, white headstock binding, mother-of-pearl fingerboard inlays, and Luminlay side markers round out this red-hot electric guitar. Top-level players need a top-level instrument like the Jackson American Series Virtuoso.

Great all around electric, awesome for metal or shred
I've had this now for about 4 months, and I love it. The neck is so silky smooth and fast, fairly thin and flat, nice big frets. The 5 way pickup selector is awesome. Bridge position and neck position, full humbuckers, nice and meaty on both. Postion 2 and 4 though, wow, I was surprised, they both sound really good, especially clean. Not what I would have guessed for what is more of a shred type of guitar. I got the teal version, the contrast of the body and the dark ebony neck looks fantastic. It's not too heavy, mine was an oz shy of 8lbs. The body is bit chunkier than I expected, but not in a bad way. The floyd rose system has been easy and nice to work with, stays in tune really well. I only have 2 nitpicks for this guitar, I wish it had stainless frets, and a little after receiving mine I noticed the frets were kind of sharp along the neck edge. Not sure if the wood shrank some, or if it was like that out of the box, I don't remember. But it was an easy fix with an inexpensive neck file. I love this guitar, it's so easy to play, makes me sound good. It is really easy to be very fast with this guitar.
