Jackson Pro Series Signature Misha Mansoor Juggernaut ET6 review: more than a djent machine

Jackson’s partnership with a progressive metal hero yields another Juggernaut – and this one promises to remain in tune come rain or shine.

REVIEW OVERVIEW

Jackson Pro Series Signature Misha Mansoor Juggernaut ET6

概括

A worthy addition to the Juggernaut range and a godsend for guitarists who tour without a tech to tune their guitars.

周边吉他手Misha Mansoor’sassociation withJackson继续建立动力。配备Evertune的ET6和ET7七弦的释放使杰克逊目录中的剑圣主题总共有11个变化,该系列代表了美国模型的更实惠的印尼制造的替代品。

The Juggernaut is a sleek and rather futuristic design, with its slim body and upper and lower horns crafted to provide easy upper-fret access. The body has been sculpted and contoured with ergonomics in mind and it proves a very comfortable ride when strapped on, while its basswood construction is in common with most Juggernaut models in the Pro Series.

还有一块石墨增强的焦糖枫木螺栓固定颈部,带有围巾 - 倾斜的床头柜和上油的饰面。很像同伴进步金属图标John Petrucci, Misha has chosen an ultra-flat 20-inch radius for his signature model’s ’board.

Thanks to the not-insubstantial weight and real estate occupied by the EverTune bridge, the fact that the ET6 balances perfectly when strapped on is no mean feat. For the uninitiated, EverTune is a mechanical bridge design that uses a spring and lever for each string to keep the strings in tune – a tension-based pitch-regulation system, if you will.

设置包括旋转调谐器,直到哟u reach ‘zone two’, the point at which pitch no longer increases. At this point, fine-tuning is carried out at the bridge end using a hex key, and voila – the string should remain perfectly in tune for the rest of its days. Job done? Almost, but in order for the bridge to react to string stretching and keep things in tune, we need to return to the peghead and locate the sweet spot between zone two and zone three (zone three being the point at which the tuner increases the pitch and the string reacts to stretching).

Following these steps proves straightforward enough, but finding the sweet spot proves time consuming. However, once successfully negotiated, the intonation improvement is noticeable and higher-register chords sound more accurate than they do on our guitars equipped with conventional bridges.

The neck profile feels like a slim D in our hands and its girth remains consistent from nut to join. Super-flat fretboards can prove rather clinical and unforgiving for chordal work but the lightly rolled fretboard edges here help give the neck a more approachable feel.

嘶嘶作响的热拾音器并不是严格地产生沉重的音调,而米莎(Misha)和杰克逊(Jackson)并没有丢失这一事实。The Juggernaut’s co-designed Jackson MM1 medium-high output pickups allow us to dial gain in without having it foisted upon us, and the even frequency response from the basswood body and snappy caramelised ’board combine harmoniously to help lower-register riffs cut through the mix.

Just like Periphery’s musical output, this guitar is no one-trick pony. Additional tonal options in the form of inner and outer single-coil combinations in positions two and four provide considerable sparkle when playing through a cleaner amp setting, while the push/pull tone control stays out of the circuit entirely until the pot is in the up position.

当然,有许多品牌争夺前吉他手的现金。但是,米莎(Misha)的长寿和对当代吉他世界的影响是基于对现代演奏者对乐器所需的一切的深刻了解。这些知识已被提炼成另一个强大的签名模型,该模型具有在其注定的音乐环境中蓬勃发展所需的所有音调和可玩性要求。
