This 21st-century Shredder is a Real Head Turner!
Decked out in head-turning graphics, the Jackson X Series Soloist SLX DX is a serious performer. Thanks to its compound-radius fingerboard, this 21st-century shredder encourages fleet-fingered playability, while its graphite-reinforced through-body neck provides you with incredible sustain and stability. Plug into your favorite high-gain amp or modeler, and you'll experience a massive, girthy tone with loads of punch and bite, by way of dual high-output humbuckers. Want to unleash some scary whammy bar tricks? If that's the case, this solidbody electric guitar's Floyd Rose double-locking tremolo will effortlessly oblige. Classic pearloid shark fin fingerboard inlays, aggressive-looking black hardware, and a matching pointed headstock round out the X Series Soloist SLX DX.
Compound-radius fingerboard provides the best of both worlds
The X Series Soloist SLX DX sports a compound-radius laurel fingerboard with jumbo frets. Down low, your fretting hand will appreciate the 12-inch radius that keeps things comfortable for natural, relaxed chord work. Up top, a 16-inch radius lays it all out flat for effortless, low-action high-speed runs with monumental string bends without fretting out — providing you with the best of both worlds. What's more, the Soloist SLX DX's neck-through-body design elicits near-endless sustain; built-in graphite reinforcement rods increase neck stability, making it highly resistant to temperature and humidity changes.
Jackson high-output pickups for ultra-hot tone
Looking for rock-solid metal tone? The Jackson X Series Soloist SLX DX delivers the goods. That's because Jackson hooked up the Soloist SLX DX with a pair of their custom-built humbuckers. At Sweetwater, we've found that these high-output pickups give you plenty of punch and serious bite — just what you need for today's most aggressive guitar styles.
Floyd Rose tremolo dive-bombs with the best of them
For expressive performance, the Jackson X Series Soloist SLX DX comes armed with a Floyd Rose Special. This double-locking tremolo is exclusively crafted for Floyd Rose, maintaining a feel and response akin to their classic designs, while utilizing zinc alloy saddles and a zinc alloy sustain block. Thanks to this trem, the Soloist SLX DX tolerates depraved amounts of whammy bar abuse without going out of tune. So, shriek, flutter, squeal, dive-bomb, make crazy animal sounds — the Soloist SLX DX is equipped for it all.
