The SC JS22 features a slightly shorter scale length (24.75") than most six-string guitars and has a mahogany body with a bolt-on speed maple neck reinforced with graphite and a scarf joint. Designed for versatile playing, the rosewood fingerboard with a 12"-16" compound radius is curved for easy chord playing near the nut and flattens out for blazing lead work without fret buzz during bends. The compensated, adjustable Jackson bridge perfectly matches the fingerboard radius for precise action and string spacing, while the anchored tailpiece ensures tuning stability across the entire neck.

Two high-output Jackson humbucking pickups in the bridge and neck positions deliver a clear tone with enough punch for today's styles. The bright, articulate sound of the pickups is routed through a three-way switch and individual volume and tone controls, providing a versatile sound that suits any playing situation and can cut through a dense mix to highlight your playing style.

About Jackson Guitars

Jackson started in the late 1970s, during a resurgence of heavy music that embraced flamboyant and virtuosic styles. A small guitar repair shop in Southern California, operated by Grover Jackson, responded to the call with a new generation of high-performance custom guitars bearing Jackson's name on the headstock. Since then, Jackson guitars have been universally acclaimed as metal guitars.
