Description
Slipknot's Mick Thomson is renowned for his uncompromising playing style and bone-crushing guitar tone. The Jackson USA Signature Mick Thomson Soloist captures every facet of his sinister yet precise attack, loaded with high-end features and electronics tailored to his exacting standards. Whether you play brutal detuned riffs or blistering solos, this signature Soloist is built to handle it all with ease.
Designed for Maximum Sustain and Resonance
Every element of the Mick Thomson Soloist is engineered to deliver withering sustain and resonance. The genuine mahogany body wings are paired with a graphite-reinforced 3-piece maple neck-through design to pump out powerful, focused tone that cuts through the densest mixes. The ebony fingerboard enhances note clarity and projection. You can rely on this ax to deliver thick, vocal tones that sing for days.
Optimized for Extreme Speed and Playability
Aggressive riffing and shredding are second nature on the Mick Thomson Soloist thanks to its sublime playing feel. The custom super-thin neck profile allows you to effortlessly wrap your hand around the silky-smooth maple for rapid position shifts. Mick's preferred 12"-16" compound radius fingerboard lets you bend strings deeply and cleanly without fretting out. From jackhammer rhythms to maniacal legato runs, the ergonomics enable total control.
Seymour Duncan Blackouts Unleash Devastating Tone
At the heart of the Mick Thomson Soloist are a set of his signature Seymour Duncan Blackout humbuckers. The EMTY bridge pickup captures the crushing force of his rhythms, with a custom voicing that emphasizes the percussive chunk of palm-muted riffs. The EMTY neck pickup provides searing lead tones, with aggressive mids and increased sustain for soaring solos or chilling melodic interludes. Crank the gain on these active 'buckers for maximum sonic annihilation.
Built for Rock-Solid Tuning and Intonation
The Jackson MTB HT6 hardtail bridge and locking nut keep the Mick Thomson Soloist in tune through the most aggressive string bends and aggressive riffing. Laser-accurate intonation ensures pinpoint precision whether you're hammering out dissonant rhythms or fluid leads. The combination of a stable hardtail bridge and graphite neck reinforcement results in tuning you can trust for flawless recorded takes or intense live performances.
