Overview

A powerful shredder with high-output mini rail humbuckers and smooth, comfortable playability.

The Jackson X Series Soloist SL3X DX Crackle electric guitar melds modern materials and construction with molten metal style. A sleekly contoured basswood body and pure Jackson neck-through-body construction ensure ergonomic comfort during long sets, along with sustain and smooth playing all the way up to the 24th jumbo fret. Graphite reinforcement rods run through the maple neck, protecting it against environmental depredations, while the ultra-fast 12"-16" compound radius bound laurel fingerboard is built from the get-go for easy chording and riffing near the nut and rapid, fret-out-free leads up the neck.

The Jackson SL3X DX Crackle comes powered with a select trio of Jackson pickups. The high-output mini rail humbucking pickups in the middle and neck positions are matched to a high-output humbucking bridge pickup for complementary harmonics and dynamic responsiveness. Single volume and tone controls along with a 5-way blade switch shape the formidable pickups’ output. The recessed Floyd Rose Special double-locking tremolo bridge system is easy to use, ensuring that the guitar precisely returns to its original tuning after every dive-bomb. The Jackson SL3X DX Crackle also bears the traditional Jackson appointments, including black hardware, dome-style control knobs, durable finish that easily shakes off sweat and other grime, pearloid sharkfin fingerboard inlays and the famous Jackson pointed 6-in-line headstock.
