Soloist SLX DX Bloodshot Crackle

The Jackson X Series Soloist SLX DX is a solidbody electric guitar built for players who want a modern, high-performance instrument with a unique reactive finish. Its neck-through-body construction and compound-radius fingerboard suit fast lead work and extended chording sessions alike.

Basswood body and dual humbuckers

A contoured basswood body keeps the guitar light and resonant while two humbucking pickups deliver thick, high-output tones for heavy rhythm and soloing. The 12-16 compound radius laurel fingerboard eases chording near the nut and prevents fret-out on high-register bends across 24 jumbo frets.

Graphite-reinforced maple neck

Graphite reinforcement rods stabilise the maple neck against humidity and temperature shifts, and the scarf joint removes the need for string trees. The neck-through design gives uninterrupted upper-fret access, while the bound laurel board and jumbo frets withstand heavy daily use.

Questions about this item

Will the compound-radius laurel fingerboard feel familiar when I switch from my older 12-inch-radius guitar?

The fingerboard starts at 12 inches at the nut and flattens to 16 inches by the upper frets, so the lower positions will feel very similar to your current instrument while the higher register opens up for easier bending.

How can I confirm the neck-through-body construction is delivering the sustain Jackson intends?

Play an open note and a note at the 24th fret on each string; both should ring with even volume and long decay, showing the neck joint is transferring vibration efficiently.

Does the Bloodshot Crackle finish come with a case or gig bag, or do I need to buy one separately?

The guitar ships without a case or gig bag, so you will need to purchase a compatible Soloist-shaped case or bag separately for transport and storage.
