Signature design with precision build
The Jackson Pro Series Signature Chris Broderick Soloist 6 is a heavy metal machine. Built from a solid mahogany body with an arched top, it provides excellent resonance and weight, ensuring you get thick, rich tones with every note. The through-body maple neck with a scarf joint and graphite reinforcement maximises sustain and tuning stability, so you can shred with confidence during aggressive rhythm parts or screaming solos. A gloss colour-matched finish on the neck not only looks sleek but also offers a fast-playing feel that caters to high-speed techniques and prolonged practice or performance sessions.
Versatile tone with custom DiMarzio pickups
At the heart of the Soloist 6’s tone arsenal are a pair of direct-mount DiMarzio CB6 humbuckers—Chris Broderick’s signature D Activators. These passive pickups are engineered for high output and articulate response, allowing your pick attack to shine through without overwhelming compression or muddy overtones. Designed to stay clean under gain and articulate under pressure, they’re perfect for tight thrash rhythms and soaring leads. The coil-split push/pull volume control opens up bright, glassy single-coil sounds, adding a clean and versatile dimension to your palette. You can jump from high-gain metal tones to chiming cleans with ease, making this guitar adaptable to any musical challenge.
Creative control with onboard switching
This Soloist provides the ultimate creative expression. The kill switch mini-toggle allows you to create stutter effects on the fly, ideal for rhythmic cuts and glitch-style transitions in a live setting. The tone knob’s push/pull function lets you activate or bypass the tone circuit, offering direct control over your signal clarity and character. These features place real-time tonal flexibility right at your fingertips. With a three-way pickup selector also onboard, the guitar becomes a powerful tool for shaping and switching your sound mid-song with total ease.
Hardware built for stage and studio
Built to handle extreme conditions, the Soloist 6 features a recessed Floyd Rose Special double-locking tremolo system for precision pitch control and rock-solid tuning. Divebombs, squeals, and subtle vibratos stay tight and accurate thanks to the tremolo’s stability. Jackson sealed die-cast tuners and Dunlop dual-locking strap buttons keep everything locked in place through the most aggressive performances. Topped off with a sleek Gloss Black finish and reverse Jackson AT-1 3x3 headstock, this guitar looks as lethal as it sounds.
