THROUGH-BODY MAPLE NECK WITH GRAPHITE REINFORCEMENT AND SCARF JOINT
Extending the piece of wood used for the neck through the entire length of the guitar’s body allows for greater playability and sustain across the whole instrument. Graphite-reinforcement rods flanking the truss rod provide even more neck stability to help the instrument withstand the rigors of the road, while scarf joint for an angled back headstock increases the tension behind the nut that eliminates the need for string trees and/or string retainer bars.

ACTIVE JACKSON COVERED HIGH-OUTPUT HUMBUCKING PICKUPS
Active Jackson covered high-output humbucking bridge and neck pickups are painstakingly voiced for full, rich tone while providing maximum overdrive and sustain.

MISC

Model #: 2916342577

This EXCELLENT guitar went from the factory to their authorized refurbisher MIRC, where it received a full multi-point inspection and expert setup - it is ready to play!  On this guitar, I see a tiny ding on the lower back corner - see the photos.  No other visible repairs were necessary, and no modifications were made except the back of the headstock was stamped USED and the original serial number was replaced/covered with a new one.  

Check-out the videos on YouTube and more information on the company website.  This is a Great guitar at a Great Price!

Enjoy!
