Neck-through design
This guitar owes its great tone and sustain in great part to something you won't even notice at first glance: a neck-through-body design. The quartersawn hard rock maple neck, paired with an ebony fingerboard (adorned with mother-of-pearl shark fin inlays, no less) doesn't just join the body; it's actually part of the body! This configuration contributes to the sustain of the SL1 in a big way, since the entire guitar is integrated. You also get two great-sounding, high-output Seymour Duncan Classic Stack stacked humbuckers, with a TB4 humbucker in the bridge position. Add cool black hardware and a genuine Floyd Rose Original double-locking trem, and you're ready to rock!
Weapon of choice
From Def Leppard's Phil Collen and Rick Savage to James Root of Slipknot and Stone Sour and Derrick Green of Sepultura (just to name a few), some of the most formidable axe-slingers in rock have used Jackson guitars to generate their fretboard fireworks — for good reason! Jackson guitars are designed from the ground up for monster tone, amazing playability, and rock-solid reliability every time they take the stage or hit the studio. Of course, it doesn't hurt to look good, either; if you're looking for a visually stunning instrument to impress your audience and show that you mean business, you want a Jackson!
Stellar components and construction
What makes Jackson the solidbody electric guitar of choice for so many players?
