Jackson neck-through-body construction ensures ergonomic comfort during long sets along with monstrous sustain and smooth playing all the way up to the 24th jumbo fret. Graphite-reinforcement rods run through the three-piece maple neck, protecting it against environmental depredations, while the gloss color matched neck finish adds an attractive touch. The ultra-fast 12"-16" compound radius bound ebony fingerboard is built from the get-go for easy chording.
