Jackson Misha Mansoor Juggernaut HT7 Amber Tiger Eye

General

Jackson have released a new seven-string guitar, designed in collaboration with Periphery guitarist Misha Mansoor. The Juggernaut HT7 is made for the hardest of flying metal solos. Two Bare Knuckle 'Juggernaut' humbuckers take care of that characteristic high gain distortion that makes Mansoor's sound heavy and tight. Because the strings have a longer length (26.5 inches), they have extra tension which makes the guitar ideal for complex rhythm sections. All in all, the Jackson Juggernaut HT7 is a very special guitar that has been designed by professionals with all the love in the world, in order to suit the wishes of serious guitar fans.

Top quality
Misha Mansoor and Jackson have adjusted each component for an absolute first-rate instrument. For instance, the body has extra deep cutaways for better access to the highest frets during solo parts. The neck features a special profile and is fitted with a flat ebony fretboard with fluorescent dots on the side - even at the darkest stage you can strike the right notes. All the guitar's components focus on stability and long-lasting performances. The Hipshot locking tuners and fixed bridge guarantee great tuning stability, even during the most complex riffs. This model comes with an AAA quilted maple top and has a beautiful Amber Tiger Eye finish.
Misha Mansoor
As the founder of progressive metal band Periphery, Misha Mansoor is often considered the forerunner of Djent music. His style is characterised by high gain and heavy palm-muted chords in combination with complex polyrhythmics and virtuoso solos. Mansoor also works as producer and songwriter - he co-wrote the debut album of another Djent sensation Animals As Leaders. He has produced all of Perhiphery’s material. 2015 marks the ten-year anniversary of the band, looking back on one of the most innovative metal albums of the decade.
