The construction of this seven-string guitar with a domed top is composed of poplar body wings and a through-neck made of a single piece of maple with graphite bracing. This design has a positive effect on the sustain of the instrument. The fig fingerboard is fitted with twenty-four jumbo-sized frets. The currently popular Multi-scale concept, i.e. the fretboard is fitted with diagonally placed frets, gives the instrument a variable menzatura (648 mm - 686 mm) and the strings optimum tension. In the opinion of some musicians, the movement of the hand on the fingerboard is also more natural. The combined radius of the fingerboard allows for both comfortable riffing at the zero fret and comfortable ultra-fast shred at higher positions.
Two modern EMG humbuckers with high output signal give the guitar a juicy sound and clear articulation even in deep positions. Volume potentiometer, tone shutters and a three-position pickup switch are used for sonic adjustments. Stability of tuning and good intonation is ensured by the attachment of the strings in the company's tuning mechanisms and seven separate tuning saddles (anchoring the strings through the guitar body).
For several decades, electric guitars of the American brand Jackson have been appealing mainly to musicians from metal, metal/core, HC or djent bands professing a loud sound with a more or less diluted dose of aggression, as evidenced by the company's list of players. However, the radical metal design can also enchant adventurous musicians from the completely opposite musical spectrum, as evidenced, for example, by Nai Palm of Hiatus Kaiyote, who in turn clearly prove that the sound of Jackson instruments can make its way into genres built on a clean, warm sound.
