Jackson USA Custom Shop 2011 NAMM Soloist Baritone Blue Paradise Pearl Electric Guitar

This is the Jackson USA Custom Shop 2011 NAMM Soloist Baritone Blue Paradise Pearl Electric Guitar.  This was one of the feature Jackson Guitars at the 2011 NAMM show.  This Baritone guitar is Masterbuilt by Pablo Santana and is completely insane.  We sat down talk to Pablo about this guitar.  What makes this guitar so special is its Asymmetrical Neck & Offset Trussrod.  Pablo came up with this design and concept after pondering how to make the guitar neck feel more natural.  The Asymmetrical Neck has a thicker profile at the lower strings and slowing tapers to a extremely thin profile over the high strings.  The technical problem with this design according to Pablo was what to do with the trussrod.  You need to have the stability of the trussrod but the neck profile is too thin where the trussrod would normally sit.  So he decided to offset the trussrod to run the length with the with the lower strings where the neck is thicker.  This is truly a break-thru and so much so that another major manufacturer is already trying to copy his design.  The result of this innovation is a an ultra thin and tapered neck on the higher strings for easy access and fast leads but a little more thickness and girth on the lower strings for fat rhythm playing.  This guitar is amazing

Other features include a 27" Baritone Scale with an Ebony fretboard with a compound radius, 24 Steel Frets, Bone Nut, and a Tune-O-Matic Bridge with a String-thru design for loads of sustain.  And then to top it all off Pablo loaded this Baritone with Lace Deathbuckers.  We had the chance to plug this guitar into the new EVH 5150 Amp at the EVH booth at NAMM and play it in front of Eddie Van Halen himself. This guitar ripped his face off.  The Lace Deathbuckers provide a pure & clean tone but maintain all the brutality you'd want.  Buy this guitar today.  You wont be disappointed.
