A conceptual take on a renowned Jackson classic





Jackson's Concept Series electric guitars redefine the bounds of the company's most popular instrument models. To that end, the Concept Series Soloist SL27 EX is no exception. Armed with a similar alder figure and neck profile, this axe sports custom-built appointments like a neck-through design and specialty humbucker setup that takes its performance over the mountains. Stylish additions include a neon shark fin fingerboard inlay at the 12th fret and Luminlay side dots, ensuring you can find your way around the fretboard in any stage or studio environment. Lined in deluxe black hardware and Jackson-sealed die-cast tuners, it's no wonder the Concept Series Soloist SL27 EX is such a popular axe among Sweetwater's astute shredders.





Dressed to the nines in Floyd Rose regalia





Every fan of Jackson's Soloist lineup knows that the guitar is built for speed. To keep this balance in check, Jackson outfitted the Concept Series Soloist SL27 EX with a 1000 series double-locking tremolo, which facilitates everything from low-and-slow lead lines to downright sinister dive-bombs at the drop of a hat. Also onboard is a Floyd Rose 1000 Series locking nut, ensuring your intonation remains stable throughout any scale of movement from the tailpiece. Make no mistake: with a valuable Floyd Rose combo on hand, you'll find limitless potential inside the Concept Series Soloist SL27 EX.





Decisive Seymour Duncan pickup pairing





The Concept Series Soloist's aggressive, overdriven tones originate within a formidable Seymour Duncan pickup duo. In the bridge position, a Distortion TB-6 delivers serious low-end power with ample articulation ? simply begging to be kicked into overdrive. Likewise, in the neck, a Hot Rails SHR-1N humbucking pickup supplies the clarity and definition of classic single-coil pickups, with the noise-canceling performance and turbocharged power that only a true humbucker can achieve. Together, this dynamic electronics combo offers players an extended range of rock and metal-inspired tones, further explorable by way of the guitar's 3-way pickup switch and volume and tone control knobs.
