Introducing the Jackson Monarkh SC JS22Q - Trans Purple Burst, a guitar that strikes a perfect balance between classic design and modern performance. With its distinctive single-cutaway style, this instrument is a testament to Jackson's renowned legacy of pioneering design and construction. Its high-output humbucking pickups deliver a powerful sound that can easily adapt from crystal-clear clean tones to thick, saturated distortion, making it an ideal companion for modern metal musicians and versatile enough to keep up with any style.

The Monarkh SC JS22Q stands out with its slightly shorter scale length (24.75") compared to most six-string guitars. It features a stunning quilt maple top on a poplar body, paired with a bolt-on maple speed neck reinforced with graphite and scarf joint for enhanced durability. The 12"-16" compound radius amaranth fingerboard is designed for flexibility, round near the nut for easy chord playing and flattening out higher up the neck for smooth lead playing without fear of fretting out during bends.

The guitar is equipped with two Jackson high-output humbucking pickups in the bridge and neck positions. These pickups, managed by a three-way toggle switch along with single tone and volume controls deliver a crisp, clear tone that can cut through any mix, highlighting your playing.
