Neck-Through Construction With Graphite Reinforcement for Exceptional Sustain

The Jackson Concept Series Soloist SL27 EX features a neck-through design that enhances sustain and resonance. Its lightweight alder wings are smoothly joined to the quartersawn maple neck, providing tonal richness. For added stability and sustain, the three-piece maple neck incorporates graphite reinforcement rods. These enhance the guitar's rigidity to let notes ring out strong and true, even during the most intricate solos. The neck-through build also makes the SL27 EX highly resonant and lively when unplugged.

Ebony Fingerboard, Compound Radius Neck Provide Speed and Comfort

Built for fast soloing, the Jackson Concept Series Soloist SL27 EX features an ebony fingerboard known for its hardness and durability. Its compound radius gradually flattens out as you move up the neck, from 12" at the nut to 16" at the body. This provides excellent low-action playability, allowing easy bends without fretting out. The slim neck profile offers comfort, while 24 jumbo stainless steel frets allow articulate string bending. With its speedy feel, the SL27 EX excels at fast lead playing across the entire fingerboard.

Versatile Tone via Seymour Duncan Distortion and Hot Rail Pickups 

With a Seymour Duncan Distortion humbucker in the bridge position and Seymour Duncan Hot Rail humbucker in the neck, the SL27 EX guitar serves up exceptional tonal versatility. The Distortion packs plenty of power, with tight lows and screaming mids and highs that are perfect for aggressive rhythm playing and searing leads. Switch to the Hot Rail for warmer, fatter tones with singing sustain. Blend the two pickups together and you have access to a huge range of tones that handle everything from rock and metal to blues and jazz.

Original Floyd Rose Double-Locking Tremolo Enables Extreme Techniques

Divebombs, squeals and radical tremolo effects are no problem for the Jackson Concept Series Soloist SL27 EX. It's equipped with an original Floyd Rose double-locking tremolo bridge, providing the ultimate in tuning stability even during the most extreme use. The knife-edge tremolo pivots smoothly for fluid pitch control, while the locking nut and tuning pegs keep everything rock solid. Whammy bar theatrics, flutter effects and radical tunings are easily achievable. The recessed bridge also provides excellent palm muting response.

Sleek Black Finish With Stylish Neon Yellow Sharkfin Inlays

The Jackson Concept Series Soloist SL27 EX has a sleek black gloss finish that looks fantastic under stage lights. Visually, neon yellow sharkfin inlays at the 12th fret provide stylistic flair. The Jackson headstock shape is another iconic visual touch. With its high-performance features and stylish good looks, the SL27 EX is built to inspire your creativity and stand out in your guitar collection.
