In the early 1980s, Mr. Grover JACKSON, a staff member at CHARVEL, created an asymmetrical V-shaped model for Randy Rhoads, who was the guitarist of the Ozzy Osbourne band at the time. The guitar that was named was far from the one made by CHARVEL, and a new brand was born: JACKSON. Later, the ST shape was slimmed down, and the Soloist, a super STRAT with a neck-through structure, was born.

This is one of the variations of the Soloist, the Xseries Soloist SL3X DX Crackle. A cost-effective model with a double lock tremolo and neck-through structure at this price!!

In particular, this X series has a lineup of models that reproduce the flashy look that was another JACKSON characteristic that was popular in LA metal and the metal scene of the 80s and 90s.

The neck is made of Maple and is reinforced with graphite to withstand changes in the environment. The fingerboard is made of Laurel wood, JACKSON's trademark Sharkfin inlay position marks are bound from the neck to the head, and of course the fingerboard has a 12"-16" Compound Radius, making it easy to hold chords in the low position. , in the high position, it becomes a gentle R from low to high, which is easy for solo fingering.
Jumbo type frets are used to produce sound even with a light touch.
Basswood is used for the body material, and it has flat acoustic characteristics, making it easy to create the sound with an effector or amplifier.

The bridge is equipped with a double locking type Floyd Rose Special, which also supports flashy arming.

The pickups include single-coil sized JACKSON High-Output Mini Rail Humbucking in the front and center, and JACKSON High-Output Humbucking in the rear, producing a powerful sound with less noise in any position.

The controls are a simple 1 volume, 1 tone, 5way pickup selector.

There is no problem with the condition of the neck. There are no noticeable dents on the frets and there is plenty left.

There are some small scratches and dents, but nothing noticeable.

80's JACKSON design is back!!
