X Series Soloist SLX DX
(Checkered Past)
21st-century Shred Machine!Distinctive and affordable, Jackson’s X Series Soloist™ models are built for speed and comfort!
The X Series Soloist SLX DX is a venerable double-cutaway workhorse that offers many fine features desired by today's shredders.
The SLX DX features an ergonomically curved nyatoh body, through-body maple neck with graphite reinforcement for rock-solid stability and scarf joint headstock for reduced playing fatigue. Hosting 24 jumbo frets and pearloid sharkfin inlays, its 12"-16" compound radius laurel fingerboard curves more dramatically at the nut for easy chording and flattens out as it approaches the neck joint for low-action bends without fretting out.
Amazing Features
• Shred-style solidbody electric guitar, ideal for the modern guitarist
• Twin Jackson covered high-output humbuckers deliver hot-rodded tones
• Compound-radius fingerboard for ultra-fast playability
• Floyd Rose Special double-locking tremolo
The Ultimate Modern Shredder!
Floyd Rose Special Double-Locking TremoloDesigned for the modern shredder, the dual Jackson pickups in both the neck and bridge positions serve up plenty of red-hot tone, the perfect accompaniment for the modern high-gain amps of today.
The bridge pickup offers more than enough prominent bite and snarl, absolutely perfect for crunching chugging and crushing rhythm sections. Switch to the neck position when it’s your time to shine for soaring leadwork!
The X Series Soloist SLX DX features a super-fast maple neck and is more than happy to accommodate rapid modern playing styles across the neck, with comfort as a high a priority. Seen here in a breath-taking Checkered Past finish and presented with a superb Floyd Rose Special Double-Locking Tremolo system, Jackson’s SLX DX delivers everything the modern shredder could ask for, and then some!
