Construction
The SLAT8 MS features an arched top basswood body with a through-body maple neck with scarf joint and graphite reinforcement for maximum neck stability, 12-16 inch compound radius laurel fingerboard with 24 jumbo frets, single-ply bound neck and Jackson 4x4 AT1 headstock with Jackson die-cast tuners.
Mechanism
Chosen specifically for their complementary sound, a pair of modern EMG 909 humbucking pickups drives this guitar’s versatile sound, combining for a highly balanced, flexible tone, with plenty of high output for pristine cleans and snarling distortion. Single volume and tone control shape the pickups’ output, which can be further refined with the three-way toggle switch for the precise voice required to bring your musical vision to life. To help improve intonation, the guitar has been equipped with Jackson-designed individual bridge saddles, staggered to accommodate the two scale lengths.
26-28-Inch Multi-Scale Length
It unlocks the possibilities of an instrument by accommodating two scale lengths on one fingerboard, thus improving overall playing comfort while improving tension and intonation.
EMG 909 Pickups
The EMG 909 pickups provide rich vocal character, definition, and responsive sound. Eliminating muddiness, these pickups enhance the articulation of every note, chord, and harmonic.
