Iron Maiden's guitar god
Hallowed be thy name, Adrian Smith. He's a guitarist who needs no introduction, having been writing electrifying riffs for legendary classic metal band Iron Maiden for many decades. And he's still going, touring with these industry heavyweights across the world. As such, it is only fitting that his signature is up to standard, and able to bear the trials of a rigorous, professional touring schedule. You'll find that it embodies his melodic, yet aggressive, playing style and character - it's fully equipped. As a tribute to Smith's legacy, and made to his exacting specifications, it will ignite your inspiration.
Sublime pickups
They're troopers. The combination of a DiMarzio Super Distortion humbucker with two Samarium Cobalt Noiseless single coil pickups generates an array of razor sharp tones. The bridge humbucker is powerful and punchy, with a high output for belting out riffs and chords like cannonballs. It delivers boosted, crushing mids, big, bold lows, and crisp, clear highs for a pummelling sound.
The Samarium single coils are just as impressive. They unlock a bright, twangy, vintage style tone for superb definition and unrivalled sonic projection. With one in both the neck and middle positions, you'll be able to choose between a nicely balanced tone and a smooth, saturated tone with ease. With such premium pickups at your disposal, you'll be able to liberate your riff writing and ensure that you have the best live sound possible.
Play with freedom
Unleash your licks on the world. You'll find it easy to shred all the way along the quartersawn maple and neck. It boasts a luscious hand-rubbed urethane finish, enabling lightning fast manoeuvrability and fret transitions. And there's a super smooth ebony fretboard, which is as graceful as it is sturdy, providing tonnes of sustain. Naturally bright, these woods also add some bite to your tone, keeping it snappy and punchy. Every riff played on these superbly crafted tools is sure to flow – you'll be able to express yourself on the guitar like never before.
Heroic Hardware
It's got your back. You can put your trust in this guitar, as it is equipped with plenty of pristine, quality hardware. A Floyd Rose Double Locking Tremolo bridge allows for exceptional tuning stability, so your notes will always chime with powerful clarity. You'll also be able to perform wild divebombs and vibrato without losing your tuning. Jackson sealed die cast tuners also play an important part in keeping your tuning stellar, but they also blend in nicely with the Jackson headstock. With a stunning finish, this guitar strikes an imposing, mystical image which screams with pure adrenal power. If you're looking to create some seriously intense, immense music, the Jackson USA Adrian Smith signature could be the perfect weapon.
