Manufacturer: Jackson - performance-oriented guitar design for decades

Jackson stands for speed, precision and modern rock and metal aesthetics like no other brand. The X Series brings many of the legendary Jackson features into an attractively priced segment - without compromising on sound quality, playing comfort or reliability. The SLX DX LF Gloss Black is a prime example of this philosophy: a guitar for serious players looking for a reliable, stage- and studio-worthy instrument with style.

Technical details - Full-length neck for maximum sustain and clarity

The heart of the SLX DX is its full-length maple neck with scarf joint and graphite reinforcement. This construction ensures outstanding sustain, enormous strength and even tone transmission across all strings and frets. The neck is firmly connected to the body - there are no transitions that could interrupt the vibration curve. The result: a clear, focused sound with a long resonance - ideal for solos and complex playing techniques.

The ergonomic soloist body made of poplar with its contoured shapes and deep cutaways offers a high level of playing comfort and excellent access to all 24 jumbo frets. The high-gloss black finish gives the guitar an elegant, professional look that will impress on any stage.

Fingerboard - Designed for speed and precision

The laurel fingerboard with fully bound edge was designed for maximum performance. The compound radius of 12 to 16 inches allows relaxed chord playing in the lower range and fast, technical playing in the higher registers. Bends, tapping, legato and shred runs are effortless, without unintentional "fretting out". The striking pearloid sharkfin inlays and black side dots provide visual orientation - even in difficult lighting conditions on stage.

Duncan Designed Humbucker - high-gain power with clarity

In the electronics, the developers rely on two Duncan Designed HB-103 humbuckers - inspired by the legendary Seymour Duncan SH-6 distortion. These pickups are made for distorted sounds: they deliver compressed, tight basses, assertive mids and present highs that don't sound muddy even at high gain values. Ideal for palm-muted riffs, breakdowns or technically demanding solos.

The three-way blade switch allows you to switch between neck, bridge or combined pickup position in a flash. The volume and tone controls offer simple but effective control over your sound - without unnecessary distractions.

Floyd Rose Special Tremolo - Ultimate control for creative playing techniques

The Floyd Rose Special double-locking tremolo is fully recessed into the body and offers precise pitch control with full tuning stability. Dive bombs, flutters, vibratos and other extreme techniques can be easily realized without affecting the tuning. The locking nut works perfectly with the sealed die-cast tuners for reliable, road-ready performance.

Why the Jackson SLX DX Gloss Black is the perfect choice for ambitious players

Whether for modern metal styles, technical rock playing styles or ambitious shredding - the Jackson X Series Soloist SLX DX LF Gloss Black offers the ideal tool. Its sophisticated construction, high-quality hardware and aggressive pickups make it suitable for both live use and precise studio recordings. The classic combination of traditional design and modern technology makes this guitar a reliable companion for all those who accept no limits in their playing style.
