A metal electric guitar built for searing speed.
Built for players who live at high tempos and demand unwavering control, the Jackson Pro Plus Pure Metal Soloist SL1A limited-edition electric guitar delivers speed, focus and cutting tone in a stripped-down design. Its pointed Soloist body, Floyd Rose 1000 Series tremolo and aggressive satin black finish signal intent, while a neck-thru three-piece maple construction reinforced with graphite provides stability through long practice sessions and demanding live sets. An ebony fingerboard with a 12–16" compound radius and 24 jumbo stainless steel frets supports fluid movement for fast runs and wide bends, with Luminlay side dots keeping orientation clear on dark stages. Lastly, a Bare Knuckle Boot Camp Holydiver humbucker anchors the sound with clarity and drive, giving players a direct voice that stays articulate under pressure.
Compound Radius Fingerboard Encourages Precision at Speed
The Soloist SL1A fingerboard transitions from a rounded 12" radius at the nut to a flatter 16" radius higher up the neck, matching the natural motion of the fretting hand. Jumbo stainless steel frets handle repeated bends and slides without wearing down, maintaining a smooth feel over time. Sharkfin inlays provide clear visual reference points, helping players stay accurate during fast passages and complex techniques.
Bare Knuckle Pickup Delivers Focused Power
A single Bare Knuckle Boot Camp Holy Diver humbucker in the bridge supplies high output with strong note definition. Clean tones remain clear while gain-heavy settings retain punch and articulation. A push-pull voice control on the volume knob adjusts the pickup character for different applications, giving players a tight and responsive sound without unnecessary complexity.
Controls and Floyd Rose Tremolo Support Confident Technique
A Floyd Rose 1000 Series double-locking tremolo provides the stability needed for expressive vibrato and dramatic pitch effects. The locking nut and sealed die-cast tuners help maintain tuning through aggressive playing. A single dome-style volume control with push pull voicing keeps adjustments simple and fast, allowing players to stay focused on performance rather than navigation.
Durable Construction Built for Demanding Use
The poplar body and three-piece maple neck reinforced with graphite rods resist warping and maintain consistency across changing environments. Stainless steel frets and an ebony fingerboard withstand repeated performance stress, while the included gig bag offers protection between rehearsals and shows. This construction supports players who rely on their instrument night after night.
A Pro Plus Pure Metal Soloist Tuned for Precision Players
The Pro Plus Pure Metal Soloist SL1A rewards guitarists who prioritize speed, clarity and a direct playing experience. Its minimal control layout, stable neck design and focused pickup allow technique and tone to take center stage.
