Iron Maiden's Adrian Smith on Jackson & His Refreshed USA Sig Models | Jackson Guitars

collapse expand iconDescription

The Jackson USA Signature Adrian Smith San Dimas SDM electric guitar is a culmination of a decades-long relationship between the company and Iron Maiden's melodic metal guitarist. Solidly built to withstand touring, it features a resonant, lightweight alder body and a quartersawn maple neck with a hand-rubbed urethane back finish. The neck is reinforced with a pair of graphite-reinforcement rods that refuse to budge, no matter the environmental stress it’s exposed to. The 12"–16" compound radius ebony fretboard is an ideal platform for heavy chording and fast, ripping solos, while a heel-mount truss rod adjustment wheel allows for quick and easy neck relief tweaks.

A DiMarzio Super Distortion DP100 bridge humbucker adds the perfect blend of power and tone, with thick, boosted mids, big lows and fat highs. The Samarium Cobalt Noiseless single-coil Strat middle and neck pickups deliver authentic, noise-free snap with incredible dynamic and magnetic response. A 5-way blade selector switch and single volume and tone controls open up endless tonal possibilities, while the Floyd Rose Original double-locking tremolo system keeps the guitar in tune through the roughest playing, set after set.
