Adrian Smith’s iconic SC1 has shaped the band’s distinctive multi-guitar attack for decades. Combining the best features of Adrian’s favorite Jackson guitars – DP 100 DiMarzio® and Fender Sumerian pickups, 12-16” compound-radius fingerboard and a top mounted Floyd Rose® double-locking tremolo – the 50th Anniversary Iron Maiden Adrain Smith Jackson SC1 delivers legendary tone, superb feel and an iconic look that has been center stage (or stage right!) throughout the band’s historic career.
As Iron Maiden celebrate their landmark 50th Anniversary, they stand as one of heavy metal's most influential and enduring forces since forming in East London in 1975. Seen as pioneering the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, the band reached new heights with their unmistakable sound and theatrical performances. Their signature style features galloping bass lines, multi-guitar harmonies and operatic vocals, while their omnipotent figurehead “Eddie” has evolved to become one of metal’s most enduring cultural icons. Selling over 100 million records across 17 studio albums, Iron Maiden has built a devoted global following – a testament to their five-decade legacy of shaping metal’s evolution.
