It will draw you in. With a tone which will transport you to a universe of heavy, this guitar has everything you need for an all encompassing guitar playing experience. The Jackson High-Output 8-String humbuckers in the neck and bridge offer you a crisp, articulate sound which has a powerful response to your playing. With the gain notched up, you'll find that even the lower strings have plenty of punch and fatness when the bridge pickup is selected, whilst the neck pickup makes the higher notes drip with saturation. As such, you'll be able to use the wealth of sounds which this giant of a guitar can produce to make some seriously intense music.
Pure Playability
Play unrestricted. Each part of the JS32's design has been carefully thought out to facilitate complete ease of playing. It may be thick and girthy, but the neck is also incredibly comfortable and satisfying, with a satin urethane finish offering fast access all the way up the fretboard. The fretboard itself is made from smooth amaranth, which has a strong resonance and facilitates fast playing. Whether you're playing chunky rhythms on the lower strings or shredding up to the 24th fret, you won't have any barriers to your playing on this metal monster.
All the Tools
Hard as nails. You're sure to love the Jackson HT8 string-through-body hardtail bridge which holds all 8 strings in place. Along with the Jackson sealed die cast tuners, it offers you a high standard of tuning stability as well as a comfortable place to rest your hand when you're chugging. In addition, the black plastic nut will reliably hold your strings in place indefinitely. With a striking, majestic Transparent black and beautiful quilted maple top finish to top it off, this guitar offers the full 8 string experience for an incredibly affordable price.
