Aggressive Styling with classic tonewood





The Jackson USA Signature Misha Mansoor Juggernaut HT7's 7-string body shape makes a bold statement. With its elegant balance of hard lines, extreme angles, and seductive curves, this guitar cuts a striking image onstage. It also boasts a comfortably contoured neck heel that lets you access the highest frets with ease. And the fact that the guitar's body is crafted from caramelized basswood means you can expect the centered tone and thick sustain that has made the tonewood a go-to for high-gain fans for decades.





Highly specialized neck





Placing the Jackson USA Signature Misha Mansoor Juggernaut HT7 solidbody electric guitar in your hand is an experience like none other. That is because the 7-string neck's carve has been carefully spec'd to Misha Mansoor's personal preferences. It is also carved from quartersawn, caramelized maple for unbelievable stability and sustain. Capping the neck is a breathtaking flame maple fingerboard that seems to jump right off the guitar. And thanks to the hand-rubbed urethane gel finish, your hands will be flying up and down the 24 stainless steel frets, completely unencumbered.





Misha Mansoor's most aggressive pickups





Mansoor's relationship with Bare Knuckles pickups goes back a long way. The 7-string Ragnarok humbuckers found in the HT7 are his most go-for-the-throat model. With a massive amount of output, the Ragnaroks are experts at pulling the most harmonically rich gain from your rig as possible. As Misha says it "The Ragnarok has a full tone and is in-your-face with any picking dynamic. The eq is balanced to the point where you won't lose the low mids in favor of the top end. It blends the best attributes of what contemporary passive and active pickups offer in a convenient package."
