The neck is reinforced with graphite rods to provide stability and protect against warping caused by temperature and humidity. The bound ebony fretboard with a compound radius of 12"-16" and 24 jumbo stainless steel frets is designed for highly technical light-speed playing. It is more curved at the nut to allow for comfortable chord playing, and flattens towards the higher pitches to allow for increasingly faster playing tempos and easier bends. Luminlay side dots show you the way to the right tone even on the darkest stages.
The modern Seymour Duncan Distortion Humbucker bridge pickup was developed for aggressive playing styles and impresses with a powerful low end, while the Seymour Duncan Custom Flat Strat SSL-6 RWRP single-coil middle and the Seymour Duncan Custom Flat Strat SSL-6 Neck pickups shine with crystal-clear highs and pronounced mids that are suitable for a variety of genres. This guitar's versatile personality can be explored with the five-way pickup switches , volume and tone controls , and the Floyd Rose 1000 Series double-locking tremolo bridge system, which is recessed into the body for right hand comfort and offers precise intonation and stable tuning .

Jackson Guitars was created when Grover Jackson took over the well-known company Charvel's Guitar Repair in 1978. The collaboration with the then Ozzy Osbourne guitarist Randy Rhoads in 1980 resulted in the Rhoads body shape, which is still available today, and also marked the start of Jackson Guitars. The timing was just right because heavy metal was experiencing a heyday in the 1980s and the trend (started by Eddie Van Halen) was so-called super or power strats. These are guitars that are visually more or less based on the classic ST form , but are equipped with more modern and stylistically more suitable components such as humbuckers or Floyd Rose tremolos. Jackson soon earned a reputation as a forger of premium, American-built, high-end custom instruments that could be seen in the hands of many well-known guitarists of the time. With the musical changes of the 1990s, Jackson Guitars began opening factories in the Far East in order to be able to offer their instruments in cheaper areas. Since 2002, both Jackson and Charvel have been part of the Fender Musical Instruments Corporation.
