Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built around a poplar Soloist body and reinforced maple neck-thru construction, the Gold Bullion SLX DX puts its focus on fast, high-gain playing. Its pair of Jackson high-output humbuckers covers tight rhythm parts and saturated leads, while the recessed Floyd Rose Special double-locking tremolo is there for pronounced vibrato and dive-bomb work. The 24-fret layout gives you the full neck for technical passages, with a simple three-way pickup switch and master volume and tone controls.
Strong match
Who this is for
- High-gain rehearsal and stage sets that use dive bombs, wide bends, and articulate rhythm parts.
- Players moving between chord work near the nut and fast lead lines higher on the neck.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who want a fixed bridge rather than a recessed Floyd Rose Special double-locking tremolo.
