General

Jackson's JS22 Monarkh electric guitar was made for speed, but that's not all it has to offer. For a look that matches its impressive performance, this particular model has been given a Trans Red Burst finish that really brings out the beautiful wood pattern of the quilted maple top. A headstock and neck with a single white binding and a set of black hardware complete the picture. This Jackson's strings, meanwhile, run along a Tune-O-Matic-style bridge and tailpiece that allow for excellent resonance of the poplar body.

Jackson JS22 Monarkh: a quilted maple top and a Trans Red Burst finish

This JS22 Monarkh guitar features a slim maple neck that is fitted with a rosewood fretboard with a 12 to 16" compound radius and 22 jumbo frets, allowing for speedy riffs high up the neck as well as extreme tone bends. The instrument's pickups are high-output humbuckers that were developed by Jackson themselves. A three-way switch keeps their sound nicely balanced.

Jackson's first single-cut model

Jackson has a long tradition of making guitars for high-speed wizards and the Jackson JS22 Monarkh is no exception. This series is the first line of single-cut guitars the renowned American brand has issued to offer Jackson aficionados an alternative option.
