Jackson American Series Soloist SL2 DX, Ebony Fingerboard, Satin Black

Full Description

Unmatched speed and precision

The Jackson American Series Soloist SL2 DX is engineered for high-performance shredding, offering a sleek and fast-playing design that makes it a top choice for technical players. Its through-body three-piece maple neck with graphite reinforcement provides unmatched stability, ensuring it holds up under the most aggressive playing styles. The 12"-16" compound radius ebony fingerboard allows for effortless transitions between complex chords and rapid lead runs, giving you the perfect balance of comfort and speed. The rolled fingerboard edges enhance the feel, while the 24 jumbo stainless steel frets provide a smooth surface for bends and vibrato, ensuring ultimate precision in every note.

Versatile Seymour Duncan pickups

Equipped with a Seymour Duncan JB TB-4 bridge pickup and a '59 SH-1N neck pickup, the Soloist SL2 DX delivers a tonal range that spans from high-output aggression to smooth, articulate cleans. The JB TB-4 in the bridge position delivers punchy mids, tight lows, and searing highs, making it ideal for metal, rock, and hard-hitting solos. The '59 SH-1N neck pickup offers a warm, dynamic tone with glassy highs and scooped mids, perfect for clean passages or bluesy overdriven leads. With a five-way blade switch, you can access a variety of pickup combinations, from full humbucking power to coil-split clarity, ensuring versatility across multiple genres.

Floyd Rose 1500 Series tremolo

Built for expressive performance, the Floyd Rose 1500 Series double-locking tremolo bridge gives you total control over pitch bending and dive bombs while maintaining rock-solid tuning stability. The locking nut and fine tuners ensure that no matter how extreme your playing gets, your tuning remains consistent. If you’re performing intricate flutter effects, aggressive dive bombs, or subtle vibrato, this premium tremolo system guarantees precise intonation and long-lasting reliability. Combined with Gotoh MG-T locking tuners, this setup ensures that your performance stays in tune even during the most demanding live sets.

Designed for the stage

With its sleek Satin Black finish and aggressive Soloist body shape, the Jackson American Series Soloist SL2 DX is built to stand out on stage. The inverse mother of pearl sharkfin inlays provide a striking visual contrast against the ebony fingerboard, while Luminlay® side dots ensure visibility even in low-light conditions. The neck-through construction enhances sustain and resonance, giving your playing extra depth and presence. Dunlop dual-locking strap buttons offer extra security, ensuring that your guitar stays in place no matter how intense your performance gets. This is an instrument made for professionals who demand reliability, performance, and unmistakable style.
