As Iron Maiden mark their monumental 50th Anniversary, the band stands as one of heavy metal’s most influential and enduring forces. Since emerging from East London in 1975, they helped ignite the New Wave of British Heavy Metal with their unmistakable sound and electrifying stagecraft. Their trademark galloping bass lines, soaring vocals, interlocking guitar harmonies and the ever-evolving mascot “Eddie” have become pillars of metal culture. With over 100 million albums sold and 17 studio releases, Iron Maiden’s global legacy spans five decades of shaping the genre itself.
Adrian Smith’s legendary SC1 has long powered Maiden’s signature three-guitar assault. Now, the 50th Anniversary Iron Maiden Adrian Smith Jackson SC1 brings together the essential elements of his favourite Jackson instruments. A DiMarzio® DP100 bridge pickup and Fender® Noiseless Sumerian Cobalt pickups deliver crushing clarity and punch, while the 12"–16" compound-radius maple fingerboard offers fast, fluid playability. A top-mounted Floyd Rose® 1000 Series double-locking tremolo provides rock-solid tuning stability for dive-bomb theatrics. The result: a guitar with the tone, feel and presence that has held down stage right through Iron Maiden’s historic career.
ender SCN (Samarium Cobalt Noiseless) Pickups
Premium noiseless single-coil pickups that deliver authentic Stratocaster tone without the hum. Using advanced samarium cobalt magnets and dual-coil design, SCN pickups provide classic Strat clarity, articulation, and that signature "quack" - perfect for studio work and high-gain applications where traditional single-coils would be unusable. True vintage tone with modern functionality.
12"-16" Compound Radius Maple Fingerboard
Jackson pioneered the use of the innovative 12"-16" compound radius design, in which the fingerboard gradually flattens toward the heel from its more rounded profile at the nut. This makes for comfortable and natural-feeling chording and riffing near the nut, with optimal shred articulation and bending nearer the heel.
Top-mounted Floyd Rose 1000 Series double locking tremolo
Unleash your inner shredder with the top-mounted Floyd Rose 1000! This beast gives you ultimate dive bomb capability for face-melting solos. The double-locking design keeps your axe in tune through relentless trem abuse. Shred and wail all night long without going out of tune.
