An unrelenting shred machine with killer tone and fearsome playability.
The Jackson Soloist SL2Q is a finely-crafted instrument bred for maximum impact, both in its searing tone and fierce aesthetic. This electric guitar commands attention on stage with a striking Trans Green Burst quilt maple top and matching headstock. But the Soloist SL2Q is more than just a pretty face—it's an elite shred machine engineered to help you conquer the most demanding solos and riffs.
Unleash Your Fingerboard Fury
Effortless playability is the Soloist's calling card. The 12"-16" compound radius ebony fingerboard flattens out as you move up the neck, providing a familiar slim feel in the cowboy chords while opening up for wide bends without fretting out. With a full 24 jumbo frets, you have unfettered access to the highest reaches of the fingerboard. You'll fly across this neck with incredible speed and dexterity while retaining precision control over every lick.
Searing Tone Meets Vocal Harmonics
Prepare to be floored by the Soloist's aggressive yet articulate voice. A Seymour Duncan JB bridge humbucker serves up thick slabs of distortion with a searing midrange for cutting leads. The Seymour Duncan '59 neck pickup provides a warmer, more vocal presence for fat chords and fluid melodies. This versatile duo allows you to seamlessly transition from driving riffs to soaring solos, all while retaining an organic, harmonically rich tonality.
Dive Into Unrestrained Expression
The Floyd Rose Original double-locking tremolo system gives you an arsenal of dramatic effects at your fingertips. Unleash a seemingly endless barrage of dive bombs, whinnies and extreme pitch bends. You can even pull up on the bar for evocative glissando slides. And when you're ready to rock out again, the Floyd Rose keeps your tuning locked in place. With this level of control over the pitch and sustain, you'll be able to fully express your musical ideas with zero limitations.
Unrelenting Power and Sustain
With its high-output pickups and resonant ebony fingerboard, the Soloist SL2Q delivers serious punch and sustain ideal for heavy rock and metal styles. You'll have more than enough muscle to push the front end of your amp with explosive dynamics and gain. Yet the guitar's focused midrange response ensures every note rings through the mix with vocal clarity. Whether you're chugging away at brutal rhythms or shredding face-melting leads, this ax will sound downright ferocious.
