Equipped with all the essential attributes, the Jackson American Series Soloist SL3 Electric Guitar leads the way in establishing a new standard in the premium high-performance category as it inspires players across the globe.

Body

The American SL3's alder body is matched with a sustain-enhancing through-body three-piece maple neck that has a pair of graphite-reinforcement rods for the ultimate stability to resist temperature- and humidity-induced bending and warping.

Through-Body Three-Piece Maple Neck Construction

True neck-through-body construction has been a Jackson hallmark since 1980, allowing for greater playability, a warmer tonal spectrum, and enhanced sustain. This method of guitar construction involves seamlessly extending three pieces of maple wood used for the neck through the entire length of the body. Graphite-reinforcement rods flanking the truss rod provide even more neck stability to help the instrument withstand the rigors of the road.

Fingerboard

Hosting 24 jumbo frets and inverse mother-of-pearl sharkfin inlays, the 12–16-inch compound radius rolled ebony fingerboard is designed for highly technical lightspeed playing more curved by the nut for comfortable chording, it flattens out up the neck for increasingly fast playing and bends without fretting out. Luminlay glow-in-the-dark side dots provide exceptional fingerboard guidance even on the darkest stages, while a heel-mount truss rod adjustment wheel allows for quick neck relief tweaks on the fly.

Seymour Duncan Pickups

The HSS pickup configuration features a set of versatile Seymour Duncan pickups that deliver tonal clout. The Seymour Duncan JB TB-4 bridge pickup roars with a hot-rodded attitude and a powerful low end, while the Seymour Duncan Custom Flat Strat SSL-6 RWRP Single-Coil middle and Seymour Duncan Custom Flat Strat SSL-6 neck pickups radiate with glassy treble tone and scooped mids that perform well across a multitude of genres. Harness the sonic horsepower with a versatile five-way blade pickup switch and single volume and tone controls. The JB humbucker brings the big, heavy sound, sustain, and rich harmonics, while the overwound single-coil pickups strike the perfect balance between increased output and bouncy, defined tonal character for a glassy, powerful, and bold bite.

Other Features

This electric guitar includes a Floyd Rose 1500 Series double-locking tremolo bridge system for reliable tuning stability throughout daring and aggressive playing theatrics, Gotoh MG-T locking tuners, and Dunlop dual-locking strap buttons.

Finish

Designed with the trademark metal style, the American Series Soloist SL3 comes in a striking Slime Green finish with color-matched Jackson pointy headstocks and black hardware.
