New for 2016 Jackson unveil a brand new body shape – the Monarkh. The Jackson Monarkh JS22 SC is a classic and familiar single cutaway style which melds with powerful sound and Jackson’s illustrious legacy of cutting-edge design and construction for a top-notch guitar…
Whether you play with crystal-clear clean tones or thick, heavily saturated distortion, the Monarkh JS22 SC easily keeps up with any playing style you can throw at it. Ideal for modern metal, this instrument is the ideal complement to your music, as creative as your playing.
Two Jackson® High Output humbucking pickups in the neck and middle positions crank out clear tone with plenty of the girth required for current styles. The pickups’ crisp, clear tone is channeled by a three-position pickup switch along with master tone controls for versatile sound that matches any playing situation, cutting through a thick mix to highlight your playing. Designed for flexible playing, the 12″-16″ compound radius fingerboard is curved for easy chord playing near the nut, flattening out for playing smoking leads without fear of fretting out during bends. The Jackson® compound radius compensated bridge perfectly matches the fingerboard’s radius for accurate string action and spacing while chords stay in tune up and down the entire length of the neck.
When you plug in a Jackson, you’re plugging in a legend. For over three decades our guitars have fueled musical revolutions, setting stages ablaze with fiery playing. The bleeding edge of guitar technology, the Monarkh JS22 SC is a sterling addition to any guitar collection—powerful and gorgeous with easy-to-operate controls that don’t get in the way of your playing while unlocking your best.
