American Soloist SL2MG
Behold the Jackson American Series SL2MG, a bold and brutal shred machine born in the USA. This iconic metal axe is crafted to devastating perfection in our Corona, California factory using only the finest materials and components.
The SL2MG’s alder body features sleek, weapon-like contours that deliver a resonant and lively tone. Its neck-through-body construction with a three-piece maple neck reinforced with graphite ensures exceptional stability and sustain. The bound ebony fingerboard with rolled edges and a 12"-16" compound radius is topped with 24 jumbo stainless-steel frets and inverted pearloid sharkfin inlays, allowing effortless bends across the entire fretboard.
For tight, aggressive tone, the SL2MG is equipped with EMG 81/85 active pickups that deliver crushing distortion and articulate leads. The recessed Floyd Rose 1500 Series double-locking tremolo bridge lets you dive bomb, squeal, and flutter with precision while maintaining tuning stability under heavy use.
With its reverse Jackson pointed 6-in-line headstock, gloss finish, and striking details, the SL2MG is as visually commanding as it is sonically powerful. When speed and precision matter, the Soloist SL2MG stands unmatched.
