Description
The Jackson X Series Soloist SLX DX HT in Gloss Black is a great fit for intermediate players or anyone looking for a dependable, fast-playing guitar without breaking the bank. With a neck-through-body design and classic Soloist silhouette, this model leans into the essentials-built for players who want rock-solid tuning, high-output tone, and modern playability. Whether you're tracking heavy rhythm parts or pushing through a fast-paced solo set, it's ready to deliver.
Dual Jackson high-output humbuckers give this guitar a thick, full voice that works well for high-gain tones but can clean up when needed. The 3-way blade switch and simple volume and tone controls keep things intuitive, and the hardtail bridge offers reliable intonation and stability for players who don't need a trem system. The poplar body is lightweight, and the laurel fingerboard balances snappy attack with a slightly warmer edge.
The 12"-16" compound radius fingerboard and jumbo frets make bends and fast runs feel smooth and controlled, while the gloss-finished maple neck is reinforced to stay stable under varying conditions. We've seen a lot of players grab these for touring backups or as their first step into neck-through guitars. It's a great workhorse and a strong value in its class.
