Built for Precision Playing
The Jackson X Series Soloist SLX DX is a new solid-body electric guitar designed for musicians who demand precision and durability. It features an ergonomically curved nyatoh body paired with a through-body maple neck reinforced with graphite for rock-solid stability. The tilt-back scarf joint headstock enhances string tension behind the nut, removing the need for string trees or retainer bars. Active Jackson covered high-output humbucking pickups deliver an expansive, crunchy tone with maximum overdrive and sustain.
Suited for High-Gain Styles
This instrument suits players focused on brazen lead work and assertive rhythm runs across genres requiring high output. The 12-16 compound radius bound laurel fingerboard with 24 jumbo frets supports effortless chording near the nut and smooth, low-action bends near the neck joint. Buyers seeking traditional single-coil tones, hollow-body resonance, or vintage-style tremolo feel should look at other models, as the active humbucker set and locking tremolo define a distinctly modern, high-gain voice.
Stable Under Extended Use
The Floyd Rose Special double-locking tremolo system maintains tuning stability during expressive vibrato and dive bombs, even through long sets or recording sessions. Graphite reinforcement in the through-body maple neck resists warping under sustained string tension, keeping the setup consistent over time. A three-way pickup blade switch with single volume and tone controls offers a wide range of sonic possibilities that remain predictable under continuous high-output performance.

Questions about this item
Do I need a battery to power the active Jackson high-output humbucking pickups?
Yes, the active pickups require a 9 V battery installed in the control cavity for operation.
Will the Floyd Rose Special double-locking tremolo accept my existing Floyd Rose arm and spring claw?
The Special uses standard Floyd Rose threading, so most original arms and spring claws fit, but verify the arm diameter before swapping.
How can I confirm the compound-radius fingerboard is delivering clean bends at the 24th fret?
Fret each string at the 24th fret and bend a full step; clear sustain without choking shows the 12-16 radius is working as intended.
