This signature axe also features a Jackson compensated and adjustable TOM-style bridge with anchored tailpiece, Jackson die-cast tuners and pointed 6-in-line-headstock.

24.75" SCALE LENGTH

With a 24.75" scale length, your guitar offers a smoother, more comfortable playing experience, especially for bending notes and fast lead work. The shorter scale results in slightly lower tension on the strings, making it easier to press down and play. This scale length also contributes to a warmer, fuller tone, with enhanced resonance in the lower end. Perfect for players seeking a more relaxed feel and rich, dynamic sound.

TOM STYLE BRIDGE WITH ANCHORED TAIL PIECE

A Tune-O-Matic bridge with an anchored tailpiece offers improved sustain and stability by securely locking the strings in place. This setup enhances tonal clarity and resonance, providing a more solid connection between the strings and body. The anchored tailpiece minimizes unwanted vibrations, resulting in better tuning stability and a more consistent playing experience. Ideal for players seeking maximum sustain and precise string alignment.
