Key Features

  • Alder Body Construction – Normally found on high end electric guitars, the Soloking MS-1-ARTISAN-HB features a perfectly balanced tonal resonance.
  • Roasted Flamed Maple Neck – Another feature that is generally found on dearer guitars, the Roasted Maple neck also boasts a beautiful flame, meaning premium feel with incredible style.
  • Modern “D” Neck Profile – Built for high performance, the modern “D” shape neck provides a familiar comfort that pins you closer to the fretboard for greater access up and down the neck.
  • Medium-Jumbo Frets – For enhanced intonation and over tonal resonance, the medium-jumbo frets make expressive bending easy and exciting.
  • Upgraded Electronics and Hardware – We have opted for upgraded Wilkinson hardware and Alan Entwistle pickups to give you the best performance workhorse at an accessible price. With enhanced tuning stability and versatile tones, the Soloking MS-1-ARTISAN-HB will be your new No.1 go to guitar.

Comfortably Ergonomic

Soloking’s MS-1-ARTISAN-HB feels fantastic in your hands, from the Roasted Maple fretboard to the ergonomic body contours that enable greater access and comfortability when playing. The bolt-on heel joint has been carved to enable greater access to the high end of the fretboard. The “D” shape neck profile with a satin finish provides a welcoming playing experience that is suitable for any hand shape, whilst providing you with fast fretting and agility when navigating the fretboard. The jumbo stainless-steel frets enable you to be more expressive with your playing, allowing for clean bends without ringing out.

Enhanced Tuning Stability

Boasting a 2-point Wilkinson tremolo system, you can be rest assured that the MS-1-ARTISAN-HB will remain in tune whether you are creating deep dives or making expressive bends. The Wilkinson tuners really showcase the excellent build quality and attention to detail of this electric guitar to give you high-performance workhorse that just begs to be played.

More info about this Product

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

HSS

HSS is a pickup configuration with a humbucker at the bridge and single-coil pickups in the middle and neck positions. This setup combines the power and drive of a humbucker for lead and heavier tones with the clarity and sparkle of single coils for clean sounds, making it a versatile option for players who want a wide range of tones from one guitar.
