Jackson Soloist vs Soloist

- We compared the Jackson USA Soloist SL3 to its import cousin, the Chinese manufactured, Jackson Pro Plus Soloist SLA3Q, to find out how much difference the country of origin really makes for these fantastic rock guitars. And to be completely unbiassed, we did it blindfolded!

This was a blast to put together! Thanks for having me Scott!
You bet!
He's like: 'Blindfolded? I hope I'm at the right place!' 🤣
The USA SL3 sound better to my ears. Thanks for an honest demo. Going to by the USA SL3 in Platnium Pearl!!!!
Thanks for this review!
Glad you enjoyed. It's fun doing the blind tests even though it impacts the quality of the performances slightly (go ahead and try to play in 100% complete blackness lol). We especially loved that Zack wasn't a Jackson player like some of our other editors... for example, a longtime Jackson player might have noticed even blindfolded that there's a holder for the utility allen tool behind the headstock on USA Jacksons (we removed the tool before testing just in case). Check out our other video comparing the Dinky to the Soloist, too!
@@musicplayersnow , it was very informative. I just bought a pro soloist sl3q and was a bit surprised how heavy it was and made me wonder if I got the wrong one for me. Price was a big factor, otherwise I would simply gotten the USA series. Cheers!
Yeah, that was a cool and honest experiment 🙂 Subscribed!
Cool test concept !
Glad you enjoyed. We were very happy to have a member of the team have absolutely no idea what he was going to be testing :-).
:36 seconds in. The answer is generally. No. I've owned 3+ dozen ESP Japan, Usa Jacksons, 90's Japan Jacksons, 80's Fernandez, Killer ( Akira sigs, 6 of em, actually kinda my favorite in some ways) Eps Japan, Esp customs. Will will focus on ESP and Jackson. Eps Japan is a perfect guitar. 9 times out of 10 a perfect guitar, of unbelievable craftmanship/perfection. USA Jacksons. Hit or miss, but also more of a home brew feel, every one is a slightly different animal, and if you get the cream of the crop, the best imaginable mojo. Same for Charvel. ( this in leu of the renaissance of the last 20 years of home builders or indy builders, which is beyond this scope.
That said, Schecter, was was never a fan of for a long time, is depending on your style, doing the best sht by far on off the shelf today. You can get a decent Jackson brand in the price level, even more so for an LTD, solid, for a long time, Schecter is killing it. and i would go LTD, but no one besides Ibanez has had a better control layout ( for my preference) in 40 years save for a standard strat. I would be a Jackson or ESP/LTD all day, but i hate their control layout. Ibanez, i hate their fretboard radius and basswood body ( necks are great) and pickup layout. I'd probably be a LTD or ESp boy, But rather USA Jackson boy if for the control layout.
My Schecter Super Shredders are basically the guitar i always wanted even before i knew what i wanted. After you spend 60k on the gear grind, and you figure out what matters to you. Fk all else. OR waste money for fun. Up to you. Once you figure out what fits you. Just save pictures of your desires and jerk off to the idea of how awesome it looks, and save money. I
'd rather have ONE guitar that feeds my soul than a dozen whores.

Please, don't hold back. Tells us how you really feel.
