Treated to a matte-black, sandblasted ash top, a set of Seymour Duncan Jeff Loomis Signature Noumenons, and an extended 27 inch scale length and seven-string range, this is definitely the Jackson Pro Series Signature Jeff Loomis Soloist SL7 - and it's a stonker. Due to that sandblasted finish, every example of this model is genuinely unique, and when teamed up with that dark ebony fretboard and iconic pointed headstock, you're presented with an instrument that's more than capable of keeping up with Jeff Loomis' ninja-style skills. The Jackson Jeff Loomis Soloist SL7 HT: A Stable Metal Machine Loomis has hand selected a neck-through-body construction, and since the three-piece, graphite reinforced maple neck has been shot through the middle of the body, you're assured of outstanding resonance and near-infinite, stretched-out sustain. The horned cutaways of the Soloist body combine with Luminlay side dots to ensure that the set of twenty-four jumbo frets are navigated with smooth ease, even when thrown into a pit of darkness, while that extra-long scale length retains a tight and controlled feel along the entire length of the neck, and sublime tuning stability is laid down by a fixed Hipshot 7 bridge and a pack of Jackson Sealed Die-Cast Locking machine heads. Surgical Attack The pair of Seymour Duncan Jeff Loomis Signature Noumenon alnico V humbuckers wield enough power, precision and versatility to deliver a sharp attack and tight basses, combining forces to support brutal riff work as well as the most delicate and flowing licks and solos. Instantly tweak the dynamic response via the single volume pot. And, while it's no surprise that the Soloist SL7 plays like a dream, that dream is made ever more ecstatic by the tight and controlled feel of a compound fretboard radius that gradually flattens the closer you get to the headstock. A surgically precise instrument built for the serious shredder.
