Jackson Announces New Guitars

New X Series models are upon us   07-Sep-11

Jackson has announced 12 new guitars in their X series.

Amongst the additions are 2 new models in the Dinky, SLS, Warrior, King V, Soloist and Rhoads ranges. All guitars come in very distinctive finishes, pictured above is the Soloist SLXQ in burnt cherry sunburst:

The Jackson Soloist™ SLXQ has a basswood body with a quilt maple top veneer, through-body maple neck and passive EMG® HZ H4-AN (neck) and H4-B (bridge) humbucking pickups that deliver well-balanced tone with tight bass, glassy mids and crunching highs. Its bound compound-radius rosewood 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. Other features include a Floyd Rose® Special double-locking two-point tremolo, 24 jumbo frets and three-way pickup switching.

For information on more of the models then head over to the Jackson website.
