Description
As a member of Def Leppard since 1982, Phil Collen’s influence on the world of rock guitar is undeniable. The Jackson Pro Series Signature Phil Collen PC1-E proudly continues a partnership dating back to 1986. Based on his iconic PC1, this Mexican-made model delivers the look, feel and performance of Collen’s famous guitar in a more attainable package. This animal looks the part too, boasting a rad road-worn finish and striking gold hardware. Top-tier tonewoods, lightning-fast playability Built around a Mahogany body, the PC1-E delivers the rich resonance, sustain and punch you’d expect from a serious rock machine. The one-piece caramelised Maple neck is reinforced with dual graphite rods for rock-solid stability, while the luxurious Ebony fingerboard features a player-friendly compound 12″-16″ radius and 24 jumbo frets for effortless bends, slick lead work and low-action comfort across the entire neck. Signature electronics with endless sustain This guitar is loaded with a seriously versatile pickup configuration. A high-output DiMarzio X2N bridge humbucker handles stadium-sized riffs and searing leads, while the DiMarzio Sugar Chakra middle pickup adds clarity and articulation for cleaner tones. The headline feature is the PC1 Sustainer/Driver system, powered by an 18V circuit, which unlocks near-infinite sustain for atmospheric textures, soaring solos and controlled feedback effects. A 5-way pickup selector and push-pull coil split on the volume control expand the tonal palette even further. Touring-grade hardware & included case The Jackson PC1-E is built for life on the road.
