Description
The Soloking S408 is a workhorse hardtail guitar that combines punchy pickups with a unique tonewood selection – check out that Rosewood neck! With a less-is-more H/S pickup config, expect biting projection in the bridge position that’s perfect for crunchy rock riffs, with bright & boisterous middle/neck position tones primed for funk and pop. A real contemporary all-rounder that looks as slick as it sounds!
Key Features
- All Rosewood neck – Smooth feel, luxurious looks, and lush tonal warmth that only Rosewood can deliver. The ultimate premium guitar neck wood?
- 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.
- Jumbo Stainless-Steel Frets – For enhanced intonation and over tonal resonance, the jumbo frets make expressive bending easy and exciting.
- Premium electronics & hardware – Enjoy better resonance & tuning stability with classic Wilkinson hardware, with specially-voiced Alan Entwistle pickups for inspiring tones that outweigh the S408’s price point.
Comfortably Ergonomic
Soloking’s S408 feels fantastic in your hands, from the all Rosewood neck 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 guarantee clean bends, rich sustain, and clarity with every note – no matter how fast you play.
Alan Entwisle pickups
Alan Entwistle has been an innovator in guitar electronics for decades, working with the likes of Tanglewood, Hohner, and Jansen Guitars. He now lends his expertise to Soloking, which feature a variety of his Neodymium humbuckers & singlecoils. The S408 comes loaded with both, so you can switch from distortion-friendly high output to the full-yet-twangy character of a neck singlecoil.
