Description
The Jackson Soloist SL3 features an alder body paired with a sustain-enhancing through-body three-piece maple neck, reinforced by a pair of graphite rods for the ultimate tuning stability. This neck-through design creates a heelless neck joint providing unrestricted access up to the highest reaches of its rolled ebony fingerboard. Sporting trademark Jackson style with its inverse mother-of-pearl sharkfin inlays, the Soloist SL3 is outfitted with 24 jumbo frets along a 12”-16” compound radius fingerboard—which is more curved near the nut for comfortable chording but flattens out up the neck to facilitate faster playing without any fear of fretting out on a bend.
