Jackson American Series high-performance electric guitar with EMG humbuckers
The Jackson American Series SL2MG MAD is a high-performance electric guitar designed for modern players in search of precision, aggression, and speed. Tailored for heavier styles – from hard rock to heavy metal – this U.S.-made axe combines premium materials and performance-driven specs. A solid alder body paired with a three-piece maple neck-through construction, reinforced with graphite rods, ensures maximum stability and sustain under the most demanding conditions. The ebony fingerboard, with a fast-playing 12"-16" compound radius, houses 24 jumbo frets that are perfect for blazing solos and deep, chugging riffs. Loaded with active EMG humbuckers, the SL2MG delivers tight, articulate high-gain tones. A 3-way toggle switch allows quick and intuitive access to bridge and neck pickup configurations. Designed for speed and precision, the SL2MG is a go-to weapon for serious metal and hard rock guitarists.

EMG humbucker with ceramic magnets and dense low-end output
The Jackson SL2MG comes equipped with a legendary EMG 81/85 humbucker set, engineered for ultra-high-output performance. In the bridge position, the EMG 85 delivers a powerful low-end punch and fat, saturated tones perfect for rhythm work and heavy riffing. At the neck, the EMG 81 brings searing highs and excellent definition, making it ideal for solos and melodic leads. This pickup combination creates a crushing yet articulate tone, capable of cutting through any mix without losing clarity – even in drop tunings. The sound is aggressive, dynamic, and clean under distortion, ensuring your tone stays tight and focused whether you’re on stage or in the studio.
