Jackson X Series Soloist SL1X Electric Guitar

A Classic Shred-style Axe Built for the 21st Century
The Jackson X Series Soloist SL1X gives you classic shred-style aesthetics along with the high-performance features modern guitarists demand. A compound-radius fretboard ensures ultra-fast playability, while a graphite-reinforced through-body neck provides incredible sustain and stability. Plug into your favorite high-gain amp or modeler, and the Soloist SL1X's Duncan Designed pickups will churn out a massive array of scorching tones. And when it comes time to unleash your arsenal of whammy bar tricks, this solidbody electric guitar's Floyd Rose double-locking tremolo will effortlessly oblige. Aggressive-looking black hardware and a light-catching gloss finish round out the X Series Soloist SL1X.



Compound-radius fingerboard provides the best of both worlds
The X Series Soloist SL1X sports a compound-radius laurel fingerboard with jumbo frets. Down low, your fretting hand will appreciate the 12-inch radius that keeps things comfortable for natural, relaxed chord work. Up top, a 16-inch radius lays it all out flat for effortless, low-action high-speed runs with monumental string bends without fretting out — providing you with the best of both worlds. What's more, the Soloist SL1X's neck-through-body design elicits near-endless sustain; built-in graphite reinforcement rods increase neck stability, making it highly resistant to temperature and humidity changes.






A flexible assortment of Duncan Designed pickups
Great feel is only part of the equation. That's why Jackson equipped the X Series Soloist SL1X with a pair of Duncan Designed HR-101 Hot Rails and a hot-rodded HB-103B humbucker. At Sweetwater, we've found that this versatile pickup configuration delivers an abundance of useful tones. Whether you want it clean and glassy or rude and crunchy, the Soloist SL1X has you covered.




Floyd Rose tremolo dive-bombs with the best of them
For expressive performance, the Jackson X Series Soloist SL1X comes armed with a Floyd Rose Special. This double-locking tremolo is exclusively crafted for Floyd Rose, maintaining a feel and response akin to their classic designs, while utilizing zinc alloy saddles and a zinc alloy sustain block. Thanks to this trem, the Soloist SL1X tolerates depraved amounts of whammy bar abuse without going out of tune. So, shriek, flutter, squeal, dive-bomb, make crazy animal sounds — the Soloist SL1X is equipped for it all.
