No longer available at zZounds
A high-tech axe for the ultimate shred player, the X Series Soloist SLX DX is a purebred Jackson through and through -- with an affordable price tag.

What's special about this item?

Feature: What it does:
Maple neck Bright tone, full sustain and strength
12"-16" Compound Radius Flatter up the neck for ultimate playability
Floyd Rose Special tremolo Smooth and stable whammy work
Basswood body Big, warm midrange tones

Built for speed and loaded with purebred Jackson DNA, the X Series Soloist SLX DX Swirl models also come with a budget-friendly price tag.

Taking style to mesmerizing heights, the SLX DX in Satin Red Swirl and Satin White Swirl feature black ink-like swirls snaking through the red and white finishes.

The SLX DX Swirl features a basswood body paired with a through-body maple neck with graphite reinforcement and tilt-back scarf joint headstock. 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 bridge and neck pickups deliver an expansive voice loaded with full-bodied tone for blazing leads and plenty of crunch for aggressive rhythms runs. Tone is fully customizable with three-way blade switching and single volume and tone controls, while a Floyd Rose Special double-locking tremolo bridge system provides superior string stability and dynamic tremolo action.

Another boldly-styled step in the world of high-tech guitars, the SLX DX Swirl models feature matching Jackson pointed 6-in-line headstocks and black hardware. Available in Satin Red Swirl or Satin White Swirl.

My wife and I walked into that big box store guitar store and she saw this guitar and was just mesmerized. She said, “Check zZounds!” There it was ordered it, two days later it’s here. Had to do a little set up to stabilize the tremolo, but action is fantastic, fret work is great. No buzzes or unwanted noises through the amp. This is a fantastic guitar for the price. Took me right back to the 80s with its looks and it’s tone. Very pleased!!
