About Jackson Surfcaster JS22 HT

Explore the dynamic world of metal music with the Jackson JS Series Surfcaster JS22 HT Electric Guitar in Gloss Black. This guitar is a testament to Jackson's legacy of crafting high-performance instruments that blend vintage aesthetics with modern functionality. The sleek, offset poplar body not only offers a visually striking appearance but also delivers a resonant, meaty tone with a distinguished upper midrange, akin to alder.

The bolt-on maple neck provides a sturdy and reliable foundation, ensuring durability and comfort during intense performances. Complementing this is the 12-16" compound radius bound amaranth fingerboard, which facilitates smooth chord transitions and effortless soloing without fret-out, thanks to its 22 jumbo frets. The meticulously carved neck heel enhances playability by granting unfettered access to the highest registers, allowing you to explore every nuance of your music.

At the heart of the Surfcaster's powerful sound are the high-output Jackson humbuckers, engineered to deliver the thick, saturated distortion tones that have become synonymous with the Jackson name. This six-string model emphasizes simplicity and control with a single volume and tone knob, allowing you to focus on your performance.

The Jackson HT6 String-Through-Body Hardtail Bridge is a standout feature, providing rock-solid tuning stability and precise intonation. This robust bridge design enhances vibration transfer, resulting in increased sustain and a richer tone, perfect for metal enthusiasts seeking a reliable instrument for their musical journey.

For over 40 years, Jackson has been at the forefront of metal guitar innovation, consistently offering high-quality instruments at accessible prices. The JS Series Surfcaster JS22 HT continues this tradition, making it an ideal choice for aspiring shredders ready to unleash their riffs and dive into the world of metal.
