Jackson - X Series Soloist™ SLXDX HT - Gloss Black
Jackson - X Series Soloist™ SLXDX HT - Gloss Black
Distinctive and affordable, Jackson's X Series Soloist™ models are built for speed and comfort!
The X Series Soloist SLX DX HT is a venerable double-cutaway workhorse that offers many fine features desired by today's shredders.
The SLX DX HT features an ergonomically curved poplar body, through-body maple neck with scarf joint and graphite reinforcement for rock-solid stability. Hosting 24 jumbo frets and pearloid sharkfin inlays, its 12"-16" compound radius bound 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 metal beast with an expansive voice loaded with crunchy, full-bodied tone ideal for brazen lead work or punchy rhythms runs. Tone is fully customizable with three-way pickup blade switching and single volume and tone controls, while a Jackson® hardtail bridge system provides superior string stability and dynamic tremolo action.
Sleek and sophisticated, the X Series Soloist SLX DX HT is decked out in multiple finishes with pointy black headstocks.
