X Series Soloist SLX DX
Distinctive and affordable, Jackson's X Series Soloist models are built for speed and comfort. The X Series Soloist SLX DX is a double cutaway workhorse that offers features desired by today's shredders.
The SLX DX features a poplar body, through-body maple neck with graphite reinforcement and tilt-back scarf joint headstock. Hosting 24 jumbo frets, its 12 to 16 fully bound 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.
Jackson high-output humbucking pickups power this instrument with a full-bodied tone ideal for lead work or rhythm runs. Tone is customizable with three-way blade switching and single volume and tone controls, while a Floyd Rose Special double locking tremolo bridge system provides string stability, improved sustain, and tremolo action.
