Description

The Jackson X Series Soloist SLX DX in Gold Bullion is built for players who live at the faster end of the fretboard. With its neck-through construction, hot-rodded Duncan Designed humbuckers and a recessed Floyd Rose Special trem, this sleek shred machine delivers the speed, stability and searing tone demanded by modern metal and hard rock guitarists.

Combining a lightweight poplar body with a graphite-reinforced maple neck and a compound radius laurel fingerboard, the SLX DX feels fast and effortless whether you are riffing low or soloing high. Add in the eye-catching Gold Bullion finish and matching headstock, and you have a guitar that looks every bit as bold as it sounds.

Built for Speed and Comfort

The classic Soloist body shape is contoured for comfort, letting you play long sets without fatigue. A neck-through-body maple neck with a gloss, colour-matched finish and sculpted heel gives you exceptional upper fret access, while the 24 jumbo frets and sleek laurel fingerboard make fast runs, wide bends and intricate legato lines feel natural and controlled.

Compound Radius for Effortless Playability

The 12 to 16 inch compound radius fingerboard is more curved near the nut for comfortable chords and tight rhythm work, then gradually flattens towards the upper frets for low-action bends and ultra-clean shredding without fretting out. It is a player-focused design that keeps your hands relaxed whether you are holding down big shapes or flying through solos.

High-Output Duncan Designed Pickups

A pair of Duncan Designed HB-103 humbuckers delivers the high output and aggression needed for modern metal tones. From tight, percussive rhythm sounds to saturated, singing leads, these pickups provide plenty of crunch and sustain, with three-way blade switching plus single volume and tone controls to quickly dial in your sound.

Floyd Rose Special Tremolo and Stable Hardware

The recessed Floyd Rose Special double-locking tremolo bridge lets you divebomb, flutter and squeal with confidence, while the locking nut and Jackson sealed die-cast tuners help keep your tuning locked in. Combined with the neck-through construction, this setup also enhances sustain and note definition across the entire fretboard.

Key Features

Neck-Through Maple Neck with Graphite Reinforcement – The neck-through-body design improves sustain and resonance, while graphite reinforcement adds strength and stability. This means a more consistent feel and tuning performance, even under aggressive playing and frequent string bending.
12 to 16 Inch Compound Radius Laurel Fingerboard – Curved where you chord and flatter where you solo, the compound radius board supports both comfortable rhythm playing and ultra-low lead action. It helps prevent notes choking out on big bends and keeps fast passages smooth and controlled.
Duncan Designed HB-103 Humbuckers – Voiced for high-gain clarity and punch, the HB-103 pickups deliver tight lows, cutting mids and enough output to push your amp into rich saturation. They are ideal for heavy riffs, articulate palm mutes and fluid lead tones.
Floyd Rose Special Double-Locking Tremolo – The recessed Floyd Rose Special bridge and locking nut allow extreme whammy bar use while helping your tuning stay stable. You can perform dramatic pitch dives and flutters without sacrificing intonation or string tension balance.

More info about this Product

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

Guitars cover a wide range of instruments designed to suit different styles, techniques, and sounds, from acoustic and classical models to solid body, semi-hollow, and hollow electric designs. Factors like body shape, scale length, neck profile, string type, and pickups all influence how a guitar feels and responds, making each type suited to different players and musical approaches. Whether used for rhythm, lead, songwriting, or experimentation, guitars are expressive, versatile instruments that form the heart of countless genres and playing styles.

Solid body electric guitars are built from a solid piece or pieces of wood, giving them excellent sustain, stability, and resistance to feedback at higher volumes. This construction makes them well suited to amplified playing across a wide range of styles, from clean and articulate tones to heavy, high-gain sounds. Their design allows pickups and hardware to play a major role in shaping tone, while the solid body provides a consistent, reliable feel. Solid body electric guitars are valued for their durability, versatility, and ability to perform confidently on stage and in the studio.
