    The sleek offset poplar body and bolt-on maple neck provide a rock-solid foundation, while the 12”-16” compound radius bound amaranth fingerboard allows for easy chording and fret-out free soloing. 24 jumbo frets and Jackson’s meticulously carved neck heel instead of a neck plate to provide unfettered access to the highest registers.

     

    Oozing with attitude, the Surfcaster comes loaded with high-output Jackson humbuckers, ready to pump out the thick, saturated distortion tones that built the Jackson legacy. Simplicity reigns with a single volume and tone control on this six-string model.
