I usually play Les Pauls, but I fancied something different without having to pay for it. The price of these guitars is very cheap for the specification so, as I didnt want to spend much I decided to purchase one. I was expecting to receive a typically ‘metal’ sounding one trick pony guitar, which I was fine about, but I have been blown away by the versatility of it. Other than the signature on the headstock there is no reason to tie this guitar to Iron Maiden. It can play a variety of styles of music and sounds and responds more akin to a proper stratocaster. The bridge pickup is fairly hot and has a decent edge to it, but at half the output the noiseless neck and middle pickups can be rolled back to clean up wonderfully, and are very musical and bluesy.
The build quality of the guitar is exceptional, there are no sharp fret ends, the finish is immaculate and the neck plays beautifully. The Floyd Rose Special is excellent. I spend a while setting this up to how I prefer, but once set up (two weeks ago) I have not touched a fine tuner. It has been in and out of gig bags, done a band practice and been played daily, divebombed quite religiously to some Van Halen tunes and it is still perfectly in tune. I am astounded.
£325 doesnt get you much guitar these days. But it does get you a Jackson SDX, and honestly you wont find a better guitar for the price. If I saw this in a shop I would be drawn to it because of the finish, I’d play it and fall in love with the neck. If I then saw the price tag of £650 I’d buy it and skip home. I wouldnt think twice about this being worth any less, but it is. grab one!

Some may not like the lack of tremolo cavity, but I appreciate the security of not being able to pull back too hard on the strings – I have broken them at awkward times doing that in the past. Single volume control means you can’t blend the pickups when selecting more than one, which also doesn’t bother me, but might bother others.
It sounds tremendous, either through my modelling board or my Bugera 333, from chunky blues to 80s thrash, it can cover it all. And the single coils sound lush played clean with a little chorus.
The neck is fast, easy and the action very low (OK, I did lower it a bit more myself).
I’ve tried out guitars that cost twice as much that I’d not rate above this one. If you want a Floyd equipped guitar for rock or metal, you can’t really go wrong with this.
Also, "Up the Irons!"

The guitar came intonated perfectly, but I changed the strings right away – for anyone wanting to use .10+ strings – even for .10 strings in E standard you’re going to need 5 strings, which is weird to me, but okay, it works.
The finish is amazing, unfortunately, my guitar had (and still has) paint residue on the FR bridge, and there’s no way for me to remove it without actually damaging the bridge finish. The rest of the finish (the body, neck and the binding) is perfect, though, and I love it.
The bridge works amazingly well, after making sure that the locking nut is secured properly you can whammy away and not worry about the guitar getting out of tune.
The pickups are exactly the way 90% of people claim they are – very muddy and full of low-ends, I would not recommend playing the guitar with a heavy distortion and/or lower tunings. I’ve actually changed the pickups a day after I have received the guitar, I’ve installed Seymour Duncan SH-6 set and it works perfectly, this is my favourite guitar now and it’s great.
If I had lost this guitar today (let’s say that someone stole it from me) I’d definitely buy another one, no doubt about it. I am actually considering buying another one but with the Rhoads body. Chapeau bas for Jackson, 11/10, would recommend to anyone interested in playing heavy rock/metal tunes.

The sound from the stock pickups is pretty good too, would probably require a bit of tweaking if recording though.
Floyd Rose is pretty good especially for the price.
All in all a brilliant guitar for the price and really lightweight too.

The humbuckers are not the most clear sounding of them all, but one can expect that in this price range. They are still very passable especially in more heavy oriented sounds.

I loved the feel of this Jackson right out of the box – the neck is perfect for moving quickly up and down. The action was a tad high but nothing major. It’s a good weight and is very visually appealing – my one issue with the design of the face of the guitar his how close the volume knob is to the bridge as you can accidentally lower/raise the volume when strumming (probably just sloppy playing on my part though!)
The sound is good – perfectly acceptable for the price, the tones can be a bit muddy but I suspect that’s not an issue for the metalheads in the market for an affordable Jackson. You can also get very nice clean tones out of it surprisingly. I’ve had it three years now and it’s still in great condition when treated well.
In summary: Great price, good guitar – recommend as a first Floyd Rose guitar. Great service from Thomann as always.
