An "Accessible" Rhoads in the Jackson Spirit
The JS Series embraces Jackson's historic codes: performance-oriented guitars designed for fast playing and powerful tones. This JS22-7 RR HT focuses on the essentials sought in a 7-string: effective ergonomics, a sharp attack, and a decidedly metal aesthetic, all in an instantly recognizable Rhoads format.
For Which Guitarist and Styles?
This 7-string electric guitar is aimed at beginner to intermediate guitarists who want to enter the world of low tunings without complications, as well as experienced musicians looking for a direct and efficient 7-string. Perfect for modern metal, metalcore, death metal, djent, heavy hard rock, and all tight rhythms requiring precision and stability.
The Sound
The poplar body provides a useful daily balance: present mids and a consistent response that keeps riffs clear in distortion. The maple neck adds attack and definition, while the hardtail string-through-body bridge enhances tuning stability and sustain, ideal for heavy palm-mutes and long notes.
On the electronics side, the HH configuration with two Jackson High-Output 7-String humbuckers delivers a powerful signal designed to drive the amp and maintain impact in the low end. The 3-position selector switch (bridge / both / neck) and Volume + Tone controls allow switching from tight, cutting bridge tones to rounder neck leads, all while maintaining a clearly high-gain oriented aesthetic.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To stay true to the original setup, a 7-string electric guitar string set with gauges .009-.054 is a safe choice. A strap (standard strap locks) and stiffer picks effectively complete the setup for rhythmic playing and precise picking.
