Jackson American Series Virtuoso, Streaked Ebony Fingerboard, Mystic Blue
The Jackson American Series Virtuoso in Mystic Blue encapsulates a legacy that began in Southern California in 1980. As pioneers in addressing the unique needs of hard rock and metal musicians, Jackson Guitars masterfully melds form with function. This instrument, part of their esteemed American Series, serves as a testament to the brand’s dedication to precision, performance, and unmistakable aesthetics.
Crafted from a robust alder body, the guitar showcases a contoured “hand-shake” heel. This design, while appearing deceptively simple, is an ergonomic marvel, ensuring unparalleled comfort for players during prolonged sets. A fusion of 5-piece maple and caramelized maple culminates in the guitar’s sturdy neck. Bolstered with graphite-reinforcement rods, it offers unwavering stability up to its 24th fret. Coupled with this is a 12-16” streaked ebony fingerboard, delivering exceptional playability, whether you’re power-chording near the nut or performing scale runs higher on the neck.
The electronics are nothing short of powerful. Housing a Seymour Duncan JB TB-4 at the bridge and a Seymour Duncan ’59 SH-1N at the neck, the guitar produces a versatile tonal palette, from robust lows to crystalline highs. Its Satin Black finish, meanwhile, doesn’t just scream sophistication; it whispers tales of Jackson’s rich heritage intertwined with their vision of the future.
Completing this masterpiece are premium additions such as the Floyd Rose 1500 Series trem system and Gotoh MG-T locking tuners, ensuring tonal stability and epic playability.
