Kind of impulse bought a used Jackson Soloist SL5X. Can't seem to find much of anything online about it. All the articles talk about the SL3. What is the difference?

From what little I can find the SL5X and SL3 are essentially the same guitar except the 5x has HSH pickup configuration and is manufactured in Indonesia.

Can anyone clarify for me a bit more on the differences between these two guitars?

Update from Fender. The SL5X was a fender special run that featured an HSH pickup configuration and blue burst finish. Other than that it's the same as a series x soloist.

I don’t know anything about Jackson guitars. But typically made in Indonesia, and sold at a lower price point, would mean more likely to need some of the basic setup tasks mentioned in your other thread.

Hopefully it's already been taken care of. It is used and bought from a music store. I guess there's no way of knowing until it's here
