Three Essential Electric Guitars with Vixen's Diary

Vixen's Diary is a Los Angeles session and touring guitarist, songwriter and surfer who has performed with Halsey, anime character Hatsune Miku, Rina Sawayama and others.
“On guitar, I do my own thing,” she says. “My go-to sound is an S-style model on the neck pickup and with the gain on the edge of breakup territory. These are the three guitars that get me through almost any gig.”
On the Jackson MJ Series Signature Misha Mansoor So-Cal 2PT, available from Guitar Center: www.guitarcenter.com/Jackson/...
“The Jackson Misha Mansoor So-Cal 2PT is an amazing HSS guitar that can do a bit of everything. This guitar really spoke to me, and it pretty much has all the things I would want. I especially love the flat, 20" radius roasted flame-maple neck. It has a sort of satin feel, so there’s no glossy stickiness as I slide up and down the guitar. The Misha Mansoor is cool and comfy. As soon as I played it, I knew it fit me.”
On the Fender Gold Foil Jazzmaster, available from Guitar Center: www.guitarcenter.com/Fender/G...
“The Fender Gold Foil Jazzmaster is a real tone machine. I use it for ‘clean-ish’ rhythm playing and it also does sleazy-sounding indie stuff. The Gold Foil mini humbuckers have a lot of bright attack, although the guitar sounds a little bit more beefy on clean tones than the Jackson Misha. The Gold Foil Jazzmaster really comes into its own for rock-y and messy, kind of psychedelic playing. I tend to grab this guitar if I want to play loose, rather than super precise or technical.”
On the Jackson American Series Virtuoso, available from Guitar Center: www.guitarcenter.com/Jackson/...
“The Jackson American Series Virtuoso is pretty new for me, but I love it. It’s really gorgeous. This guitar is great for playing metalcore, which is a lot of the music I grew on and is very close to my heart. I think a sign that you’ve got a really good guitar is you plug it into your rig and it sounds great straightaway. You don’t need to tweak much at all. That was the case with the Virtuoso.”

Which of these three guitars speaks to you the most? Let us know in the comments! 🎸👇

My favorite isn’t on here….i have a Hamer DuoTone (I believe Carvin makes a similar model), but the DuoTone has 2 Seymour Duncan Hum-buckers and a piezo saddle…with separate outputs for the acoustic and electric pickups, so you plug into two separate amps. And, a three way switch so you can intro a song acoustically and simply flip your pinky to either a blend or just the hum-buckers.
