The Jackson Pro Plus Signature Chris Broderick Soloist 7 electric guitar is a masterclass in modern metal craftsmanship, designed in collaboration with the virtuoso guitarist known for his work with Megadeth, Act of Defiance, and In Flames. This guitar is engineered to meet the exacting demands of contemporary metal players, offering a sophisticated instrument that excels in speed, precision, and tonal versatility. Its striking Transparent Black finish showcases a flame maple veneer over a mahogany body, combining aesthetic appeal with rich, resonant tone.

Built around Jackson’s iconic Soloist body shape, the Pro Plus Signature Chris Broderick model features a smooth, natural satin-finished 3-piece maple neck with an ebony fingerboard. The 12″ radius and jumbo stainless steel frets provide effortless playability and durability, making it ideal for rapid thrash fretwork and intricate lead lines. The reverse Jackson AT-1 headstock and black hardware add to the guitar’s aggressive, modern look.

At the heart of this guitar’s powerful sound are the direct mount DiMarzio Chris Broderick CB7 pickups in both the neck and bridge positions. These pickups deliver a clear, articulate tone with the high output necessary for heavy riffing and searing solos. The versatile 3-position toggle switch and push/pull tone control allow players to dial in a range of sounds, from razor-sharp leads to thick rhythm tones. Complementing the electronics is the Gotoh GE1996T-7 recessed double-locking tremolo system, providing stable tuning and expressive vibrato capabilities.

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.

Guitars

Guitars cover a wide range of instruments designed to suit different styles, techniques, and sounds, from acoustic and classical models to solid body, semi-hollow, and hollow electric designs. Factors like body shape, scale length, neck profile, string type, and pickups all influence how a guitar feels and responds, making each type suited to different players and musical approaches. Whether used for rhythm, lead, songwriting, or experimentation, guitars are expressive, versatile instruments that form the heart of countless genres and playing styles.

Solid Body Electric Guitars

Solid body electric guitars are built from a solid piece or pieces of wood, giving them excellent sustain, stability, and resistance to feedback at higher volumes. This construction makes them well suited to amplified playing across a wide range of styles, from clean and articulate tones to heavy, high-gain sounds. Their design allows pickups and hardware to play a major role in shaping tone, while the solid body provides a consistent, reliable feel. Solid body electric guitars are valued for their durability, versatility, and ability to perform confidently on stage and in the studio.
